the problem with defi projects is the gas fee. I wait till the early mornings of weekends to do any transactions and even so, interacting with uniswap costs about $10-$15. Unless you are a whale or you don't mind locking your money up for a while, the defi space isn't suitable.

If you are not a whale, or have a modest mining operation, you can consider being a lp at binance. limited pairs, lower apy but no fees
