**No one knows the length of time each cycle will take as it could be months, a year or even a few years so staying busy no matter what is the key. Accumulation during the quiet times is the best way to grow and we need to take advantage of the cycles the best we can.** 





Every week that ticks by our bags are getting bigger by having our stake in the right place earning rewards via the APR of offer. The idea that one day this will turn into passive income is becoming more than a pipe dream and a serious reality.

Two of my biggest bags have a 100K stake target in place and that will be accomplished within the next few months. The accumulation game we have been playing for years will pay off handsomely and is the game changer. The Bull market may get all the accolades due to the prices, but the most important market has to be the Bear market for anyone trying to be successful in crypto.

When I started my COTI stake back in February 2021 the initial target was 15K mainly down to the fact as that was the minimum required to stake. That has all changed now as there are no minimums, but having the 15K staking in place got me in the right mindset to accumulate. Nearly two and a half years later the mindset remains the same with the only difference the target has increased by 85K to 100K. This only shows anything is possible if you stick at it by being consistent over a lengthy period of time.

What we don't know is what is going to happen as the crypto projects mature creating more earning opportunities. COTI was a prime example as we have had the GCOTI airdrop recently which offers a boosting potential benefitting anyone who has stake.

The GCOTI will boost 11K COTI at a 1/1 ratio by 800% when staked, but overall will increase the overall APR by 8.8% which is still a huge win looking at the growth on offer. A month or so ago I was looking at achieving 17 COTI per day and that is now closer to 23 COTI per day when this goes live tomorrow. This boosts the overall growth adding to the stake by 700 COTI per month which could be worth a tidy sum in the coming years.

As the projects and development rolls out over the next few years with adoption around the corner we have no idea what all of this effort is going to be worth. I see no reason why this will not turn into thousands of dollars each month. The more you have the more you will make each month and why grabbing what is on offer now will make a big difference.

All of us who have looked at Crypto long term know that luck is not involved as luck has nothing to do with this. The years of accumulation involves so much work and effort even when it looks as though the time involved is not worth the rewards being earned. I can see the 700 being earned each month turning into 1000 and this is inevitable as this is the course that has been set. Setting up is the most important part knowing how many years lie ahead as this is by no means a get rich quick scheme, but this method does guarantee success.
