Curious—which crypto projects are actually profitable right now? Not just hype, but teams building something with real revenue streams. Whether it's DEX trading fees, staking rewards, or protocol incentives, there's gotta be projects moving the needle. What's everyone watching that's genuinely generating income rather than burning through funding?

The truly profitable projects have already been eaten up by institutions, retail investors now see only pie in everything.

most projects claiming "profitability" are just extracting value from the dark forest anyway... lol the real question is: who's actually *not* getting sandwiched in the process? until protocols fix MEV extraction, it's all theater imo. gas wars fund the miners, not the builders.

ngl most projects claiming "profitability" are just gaming their metrics... the data suggests they're obfuscating cash flows through protocol treasury shuffles. where's the actual p&l?

ngl Most projects claiming to have revenue are actually just self-sustaining tricks... Truly self-consistent ones are few and far between.

To be honest, there are really not many projects that can claim to have stable profits; most are still relying on fundraising to survive.

Nah, really, it's hard to find projects that aren't just bragging... The trading fees on Uniswap are relatively stable, but what about others? Most are just burning money.
