Ummm, thanks for the heads up about Bitget launchpools. I've been participating quite a bit on Binance launchpools and it used to be pretty decent but right now, it's complete shit due to the heavily dilution that currently plagues their launchpool. I participated in ENA's bybit launchpool and the APR was great. Subsequent Bybit launchpool end up making the user more losses because the rewards are just not enough to compensate for the drop in price. Best is stable coins.
If you have enough capital or plenty of ETH, you might want to use Pendle's PT farms instead to get fixed APYs on your stables or raw ETH.
It's good to explore multiple eaerning opportunities in this space in other not to miss out. though. I've been on Bitget launchpools last month especially PoolX and the APR was decent even though I didn't stake much. You can check it out. ATM asides that I'm farming numerous play to earn games and also considering shark fin due to it's principal guaranteed feature for BTC, eth & USDT.
Alrighty. Since you're the second person in forum suggesting Bitget PoolX, I'm inclined to check it out. Hopefully it would be worth it. Maybe there's still time to have fun there before it gets heavily diluted.

I have participated in crypto staking as well, but no good profit was realized while I still ended up putting my asset at risk.
I am earning from crypto now through trading and also investing and holding for a long time.
I haven't heard about risks of losing asset when staking except you're doing so on a CEX. If you're staking directly on a network, it can't be stolen by the validators you delegate to. The only problem with staking these days is that the drop in value of your asset can be compensated by the staking reward you will earn. Say APY is 10% and price of token drops -40% in the same period, you're -30% short.
