Alright devs, builders, and degen thinkers —
Let's talk: how do people actually make money with smart contracts? Not just "launch a memecoin and pray" kinda stuff, but real utility.
A few paths that come to mind:
– Building DeFi protocols with fees baked in
– Launching tokenized tools/dapps (like lotteries, DAOs, escrow, etc.)
– Deploying NFT minting contracts with royalties
– Automating trading or staking strategies
– Creating no-code contract tools for normies
But I know there's more out there.
Have you built or seen something unique that earns?
Any monetization models that don't rely on VC money or hype cycles?
If you've got ideas, projects, or questions — drop them here.
Could be helpful for anyone looking to build in this next cycle.
