One beautiful thing about life is the varieties it offers us. This gives relevance to the power of choice, else, we all would have been like robots. Variety and diversity is a feature of every community which knows how to harness them for common good.

Gaming Dapps and related business organizations are building and growing on Hive on daily basis, and they present to us several investment options that help us participate in the gaming economy in the cryptoverse. These participation come in different ways - active or passive.
Earning from blockchain games on the one part requires active participation in the gaming tasks to earn related tokens as rewards. On the other part, there is the "lazy man's approach" to earning from blockchain games and that's by investing in the gaming tokens to earn passive rewards.
Investopedia defines "Passive income" as money generated from an enterprise in which a person is not actively involved. Passive income is also used to explain money being earned regularly with little or no effort on the part of the person receiving it. Examples include property rental, equipment leasing, and limited partnership interest. With Hive games, games present us with several passive earning options including:
- curation rewards
- staking rewards
- Liquidity rewards
- HODLing rewards
The proponents of earning passive income tend to be boosters of a work-from-home and be-your-own-boss professional lifestyle. This is an awesome way of earning. it's fun and exciting. Passive income has been a relatively loosely used term in recent years, especially with the advent of cryptocurrency.
