# Farming in DeFi: Your Money Works While You Sleep



Tired of your crypto just sitting in your wallet doing nothing? Farming is basically your way to earn passive income in DeFi.

**The idea is simple:**
- Put your crypto into a liquidity pool
- Other users trade or lend with it
- You receive commissions + reward tokens

It's like being a lender at a bank, but without the bureaucracy and with much juicier returns than any traditional deposit.

**Real example:** You put 1,000 USDC into Uniswap, and in a month, you earn 50-100 USDC in interest. At a bank? Maximum 1-2% annually, haha.

**But watch out for the risks:**
- The price of your crypto can drop while it's locked up (impermanent loss)
- Bugs in smart contracts = lost funds
- Returns depend on the volatility and volume of the pool

The good? Your money works 24/7. The bad? You need to stay alert or you'll end up holding bags.
