April Growth Report (Now with Charts!)
How have my crypto investments grown over the last few months?
This is my second monthly growth update.
You may have read my last monthly update.
This month will be quite different.
For one thing, it will have charts to go with each project. Also, it will show the growth over a longer period of time. It will show growth from January of this year until April, not just from March till April.
You will see that some projects have improved over time & some have not.
I am still learning, theory crafting, experimenting, watching, & strategizing. Thank you for your patience.
(Also, I have put in the average amounts underneath each of the sections on the projects spreadsheet. It will be listed as AVG & the numbers will be underlined.)

Adstaker
Date Joined: 10/14/22. Current ROI = 49.09%.
As you can see with this project, I invested heavily into it in February, in order to live off the dividends. This is why there is a big dip in how much I kept that month. This also boosted my income that month & in March. It has started to fall due to the token price coming down some in April. Plus, April had 4 weeks in it compared to 5 weeks in March.
The good news is that I don’t have to invest anymore & every week my ROI improves. Plus, the daily earning is higher than my withdraw amount. So my earnings continue to grow!
I’ll still continue to live off of the dividends until I’m able to withdraw more everyday. At which point I’ll probably withdraw a large amount to get closer to ROI.
MOF#1 (Mischief of Fortune, Account #1)
Date Joined: 1/2/23. Current ROI: 116.5991%
This is my first account with Mischiefs of Fortune (MOF#1).
As you can see, my income with project continues to grow each month. (Yay!) I did reinvest a large amount back into it during April, which greatly reduced my kept amount.
Now, I’m at the point where I can do the 50/50 strategy with this project.
This means that from now on my reinvest should be closer to the amount that I keep, which will be going up every 15 days!
The month of May should see an increase in just about all these numbers with this account in this project.

MOF#2 (Mischief of Fortune, Account #2)
Date Joined: 1/25/23. Current ROI: 80.79268%
As you can see above, MOF#2 is improving a lot from March’s numbers!
I have now gotten to the point where I can do 50/50 with both of my MOF accounts!
This means that I’ll keep half of what I withdraw & invest the rest back into the project. This will grow withdraw amounts & reinvestment amounts together.
Also, did you notice that my MOF#2 income is very close to my MOF#1 income? This is awesome!
I’m looking forward to my future with this project!!!

BNB Miner #1 (BNB Miner first Account)
Date Joined: 5/6/22. Current ROI: 328.72%
This is my longest running account, in Defi!
I have been in this project since 5/6/22.
This project has taught me a lot about several different strategies. These experiences with this project & other projects have taught me to use the 50/50 strategy with this miner.
Now, my position is doing a lot better.
At this point, I’m averaging around $201 monthly income with this project.
Out of that $201 income, my average reinvest is around $140, which only leaves $60 kept for the month. I need to fix this so that it is closer to 50/50.
My kept needs to go up!!!
Also, you can see that the monthly income is still going down. This is because of the falling contract TVL. That being said, I am positioning myself for the third wave coming & other projects that are to be launched in the ecosystem.
These new projects will help grow contract TVL, which will help grow my earnings as well.
Now, it is just a matter of time before it starts going back up…

BNB Miner#2 (BNB Miner, Account #2)
Date Joined: 4/15/23. Current ROI: 18.83%
I have just started this account with the BNB Miner, after almost a year with only one account.
With inflation high in the contract, that means that the miners ae SUPER cheap with this project.
Now is the perfect time to start getting into this project!
Instead of doing a large lump sum deposit, I’m DCAing into the miner. I’m investing $30 into this second account every weekend. This then grows the number of miners I have plus it does it at a cheaper price each time.
My short term goal is to have the same number of miners in this account as I do in my first account. When this happens, I’ll reassess my strategy again. If everything still looks good then I plan on investing $30 each week but only in the account that has the least amount of miners in it.
In only 2 weeks, I’m over half way to this goal! So I should be able to reach it in May.
We’ll see what happens after that…

DRIP Faucet
Date Joined: 10/2/22. Current ROI: 28.75%
So I joined DRIP with a very small amount. I only started with 2.8 DRIP.
Since way back then I have been able to grow my deposit balance to 828.241 DRIP.
This is a growth of 29,580%!!!
My balance is continuing to go up every week. I’m currently using a new strategy that is very similar to the 50/50 strategy that I’m using with other projects. This way I get to grow my deposit amount & withdraw earnings to help with my ROI.
The long term goal is to reach around 27k deposit amount.
Once I reach that amount then all I’ll have to do is withdraw. Those withdraws will be around 273 DRIP each. That’s around $90 day, at current prices, or maybe even more by that time!
So this will be a very long term project. The longer I keep it then the higher my earnings will go. So longer is better.
Elephant Token
Date Joined: 4/1/23. Current ROI: 90.71%
Now for a different type of animal. (Pun intended…)
Elephant token is different then any of the other projects that I’m currently invested.
Basically, I convert my tokens into Elephant tokens. These elephant tokens then just sit in my wallet & grow. They grow in price & amount. (This is because of how the different contracts interact with the tokens within the ecosystem.)
In the spreadsheet above income is the actual growth in value, because of the rise in token price & the extra tokens going into my wallet.
Since it is a token then ROI is calculated differently as well.
Token ROI = (amount invested, minus 10% taxes, plus growth) compared to total value.
For example:
I have invested a total of $227.24 to buy these tokens, so far. This amount minus 10% taxes (approx. $27), plus rise in price & increase in number of tokens, equals $206.01167. Compare these two amounts & you end up with 90.65818957929942% ROI.
If you still have questions about how I calculate ROI then go read this article about how I figure ROI.
Because of the way it is designed, I plan on investing even more into this token.
Since this is a token that just sits in my wallet then there is no referral links or commissions.
You can find out more about Elephant Money by reading articles in the list below.
Stampede
Date Joined: 4/5/23. Current ROI: 1.04566%
Stampede is another project in the Elephant Money ecosystem.
It uses the TRUNK token. TRUNK invested. TRUNK earned.
You can read more about how Stampede & TRUNK work in the article below.
TRUNK is the Elephant Money stable coin. It is below peg at the moment which makes it a great bargain buy.
Once it gets back to peg then it may be around 500% profitable!
I invest it into Stampede at 200 TRUNK intervals. Stampede then earns more TRUNK for me, at a peg adjusted rate. At the moment it is very low but in the long run will go up a lot.
So I’m positioning myself now for when that happens.
Fortune Hunters NFTs (I have 2 of Them)
Date Joined: 12/11/22 Current ROI: 20.45%
I get paid a dividend every month for HODLing these NFTs. I have 2 of them. They cost me 100 USDC on 12/11/23. Total cost = 200 USDC.
I have the Farm of Fortune NFT & the Fortune Hunters NFT. They are now worth 145 USDC & 130 USDC respectively. So far I have earned 40.9 USDC as dividends from HODLing them.
This means that I have a potential value of 315.90 USDC!!!
The Fortune Hunters have also said that they have future plans for these NFTs.
So I’ll keep them in my wallet for the foreseeable future.
You can see all the Fortune Hunters NFTs on the OpenSea website, in the link below.

Medium
Date Joined: 7/23/22 Current ROI: 763.5286%
So far, Medium is giving me my highest ROI out of all my other investments.
I first started writing in July of last year. Then I was able to join the Partnership Program & start earning money at the end of September. Since then it has been a rollercoaster ride.
As you can see in the graph above, my Medium income has been going up every month this year!
I have changed strategies with this project, just as I change strategies with all my projects. There are certain types of articles that earn more than others. These types of articles, I have started publishing at the beginning of each month. (Plus, learning different ways to “shill” these articles as well.)
I have been posting certain articles with 1 of my 3 publications, which has also helped my earnings go up a bit.
I really enjoy interacting with the Medium community a whole lot.
I had a record breaking month in April, earning $191.53!!! (This will be part of May’s income.)
The returns on my interactions with them are exponential!!!
The future is bight with this project.
Top 5 earning articles for April:
- Rethinking this thing called DRIP… ($80.88)
- My pig went DRIP on me!!! ($33.75)
- Elephant Money: 332,332,822.22564 little Elephants & 259.957354211883 TRUNKs too!!! ($12.51)
- My Little Elephants are Growing up BIG & Strong ($8.87)
- BNB Miner #2 ($5.64)
The Fortune Miner #1 (My first Account with The Fortune Miner — TFM#1)
Date Joined: 2/24/23 Current ROI: 36.12%
I have had to relearn what I learned with the BNB Miner, on this miner, with a twist.
On the BNB Miner there is no minimum required deposit. On this miner, there is a minimum of 0.05 BNB required to reinvest. This means that I need to be withdrawing at least 0.05 BNB or more in order to make a profit.
In the past, I would do a transaction every 24hrs & reinvest with every withdraw. Due to inflation in the miner, & lowering contract TVL, my earnings constantly went down, which meant that my reinvestments were higher than my withdraws.
This is why it shows my kept amounts in the red for March & April.
In April, I changed my strategy with miner to the 2/2/2/2 Strategy, which has helped me a lot. Now, I wait until my withdraws are closer to or more than 0.05 BNB, needed to reinvest.
This is why my kept amount is a lot better in April then it was in March.
Hopefully, May will be even better!

TFM#2 (The Fortune Miner, Account #2)
Date Joined: 2/24/23 Current ROI: 31.93%
This is my second TFM account. I call it TFM#2.
I have started following the same 2/2/2/2 strategy with this account, just like TFM#1.
Hence, why the gray line has started going up with this account.
Hopefully, using this strategy will help it go up even further in May.

Grand Totals
My Grand totals have been a rollercoaster ride this year!
Withdraws were high in January, lower in February, a lot higher in March, then back down again in April. I didn’t track reinvestments in January, they were high in February, even higher in March, then back down again in April. The amount that I kept was way down in February, up in March, & back down in April.
I was able to withdraw around $4.4k so far this year, which is good. My reinvestments were at least $3.6k, which means that I was able to keep around a little over $800.
My goal is to get to a point were I can keep at least $4k per month. I have a long way to go…
I need to keep more of what I withdraw.
(As a side note, I was also able to withdraw $15.5065 form Tiny World, & $4.75 from Wonder Hero during March. This is calculated into the grand total numbers above.)
Thanks for reading!
Till next time.
God Speed!
