I'm doing derivatives, btc on btc. No actual buying/selling involved. Since Laura told me it's going up forever, I haven't been able to resist a little boost to my stacking routine. If she goes down (and no I don't mean Laura, I mean the Royal She), all I've got to do is not getting liquidated and wait patiently. She eventually comes up stronger than before, and a few sats drop on top of my stash.

I used to do this more when I hadn't reached my accumulation target, which now I think have. But old habits die hard  

The next gamble I want to practice and learn is less degenerate and more mindful: options. I think selling out of the money calls might be a good way to extract yield without selling or losing possession of your keys (well except for the collateral while the option hasn't expired, which is only fair). Pocket the premium, and then the worse that can happen at expiry is having to sell for a lower price than the current number is (the strike price of the option I wrote). Haven't done any of that yet, but it looks like a sustainable way to deplete my stockpile, in parallel or alternatively to the progressive sells so well detailed by JJG.
