The difference between Bitcoin relative to the other cryptos is yet more apparent from the context of long-term value extraction by way of a yield. Unlike, alts where DeFi plays a major role in the utility of tokens for financial benefits, staking and what not...

Having said that, the long term holding of Bitcoin should in itself be a rather nice reward. However, while there are no staking per se there are place where you can earn passively on your Bitcoin holdings. Several exchanges provide this ie. Binance as well as institutions that deal with digital assets i.e. Nexo
So there are options it is a matter of choosing your risk level

What kind of cryptos? Proof-of-stake based ones?

Holding bitcoins gave the greatest capital appreciation this decade. Now that's definitely not nothing. Just knowing that you keep a so undervalued asset (with 180% annual yield on average) for so long provides the best risk:reward ratio.

You can either hand out your bitcoins to third parties or run a lightning node with much capacity.

if you day trade the risk becomes much greater, if you use the strategy of always buying in each fall and selling in each large rise the risk also becomes much greater and in these two cases you will be forced to know how to do technical analysis, then your best option at the moment is to do hodl


each person uses their own strategy

There is nothing better than hodling Bitcoin for long-term and don't ever make mistake of liquidating bitcoin holdings into altcoins for staking, I would suggest you to hodl it for atleast two years (assuming you are in for long term and wouldn't be bothered or panicked by ups and downs), then compare the APY earned through staking and profit warned in Bitcoin you will not be disappointed for hodling Bitcoin.

the same thing with you I also feel it, and some tokens and bitcoins resulting from being a bounty I have traded in the past to increase the amount of my bitcoin assets but the current decline makes me hold it maybe a long time because my bitcoin is only a small amount and hope to be rich with that amount

If you want to stake it, it should be into a specific platform. But the twist, is that you're not holding the keys of it. That's why there's no staking in bitcoin.
And the actual is that you're lending your bitcoin to that platform, most likely it is an exchange and they'll give you a return for doing that. Not that much and not worth of the risk.

That's the difference if you're holding your Bitcoin and staking on it on a good platform exchange, speaking of a good exchange that can be trusted to hold your asset might be hard to choose right now.  Because you will never know when they will become shut down or there is a hack that will happen.

Ain't against staking even though you're not holding your private key but of course, don't put all your eggs there.  It should be the majority of your assets you have control over your private key and the rest is that you can afford to lose.

However, there's no one beat on holding, it gives a guarantee when it comes to the security of your assets.

There are other blockchain networks that offer yield farming or staking.
There are some platforms that offer wrapped Bitcoin pairs. How to wrapped your Bitcoin? Well, there are multiple bridging platforms these days in which your particular cryptocurrency in the specific network is being bridged to another ecosystem/blockchain network, this is like pegged asset from another blockchain network.

I saw some wrapped Bitcoin yield farming or liquidity pools in Solana ecosystem, check Saber/Orca/Raydium. So that time you are earning some interest, but then again it is not 100% safe or guaranteed profits because you need to consider Impermanent Loss or maybe the platform itself can be hack.

Yes, you have a point, and the reality is that many people are doing this and also advising others to do so, such as newcomers who are told to buy a bitcoin and hold it for a few years, which is extremely profitable. There are numerous ways to earn bitcoin through trading, but it is extremely risky and requires time and effort to learn. Additionally, staking, which is simply purchasing an altcoin with bitcoin and staking it to your prospect coin. However, if forced to choose one, I believe I would choose trading because I can truly say I am accountable and in control of my money.
