## How do you profit?

This is a **pure passive income strategy** that requires little effort. You will profit as long as:

* You earn passive income by staking your $APT on Tortuga  <https://app.tortuga.finance/>&#x20;
* You earn passive Income by supplying $tAPT on Abel Finance&#x20;
* The funding cost/rate of borrowing $ALT at <https://abelfinance.xyz/#/markets> is **SMALLER than** Your $ALT staking rate at <https://staking.aptoslaunch.io/staking>

The $ALT staking rate at <https://staking.aptoslaunch.io/staking> is **consistently at 20% APY.**

***Note\*You can always repay the $ALT should you not wish to continue with the strategy. Not Financial Advice.***
