Within this scope, I feel that there are two biggest ways to generate passive income from cryptocurrencies, and I also use them and see other people using them.
the first is trading. although the risk is big, but I think we can control that risk by creating a safe zone when we trade, whether it's in the short term or long term. however, I do most of the long term trades. waiting for the right time always gives a very good profit.
The second is staking. the origin is very easy, it's because we don't need to do anything, and nowadays this method is very popular. however, we just need to keep the coins or tokens we have to earn interest from it. it's just that, from every passive income, there is a risk. well, I trade most of the time, and hold it.

What I do not understand about people is that "trading" is not passive, in order to trade you have to buy and sell which is not something simple because you have to learn so much about trading and be good at it and spend hours finding good trades to make as well. It is literally work and I rather work to do something else and earn money that way if I do not have big enough capital.

This is not passive income, passive income means that you work once and you do something and then it will earn you money even while you are not working, even while you are sleeping. Staking is like that, you put money in at first but then you never do anything, you literally just go live your life and you are still making a profit while eating or sleeping or watching a movie. Now THAT'S a passive income. Which is why trading is not a passive income and could never be considered one.
