one method you can make money in crypto is by earning funding fee :

this is a 2-in-1 or even 3-in-1: airdrops + money

X. buy spot in dex - example: hyperliquid 
X. short perps 1x in dex - example: lighter, hyperliquid

earn funding fees - for some tokens like hype: the funding fee hovers around 10-20% annually

some volatile pairs like pump was around 50-100% in the first week but now hovering around 10-15%

this is an example of my funding fee in lighter which I have made $XX with a $2000+ position for X months 

so basically I bought spot $2000 in hyperliquid then short perps 1x $2000 in lighter

with 1x, I won't get liquidated that way.

It does require a lot of capital upfront to be able to play with this thus I always said : liquidity is king.

you can also potentially farm future hyperliquid, unit and lighter tokens from doing this by racking up volumes in the dexes.
