I just happened to get lucky this year as some of my contract work and piano gigs started back up right when the coins started dropping in price. The market prices earlier this winter around December saved me though, I sold some coins then, during a time when I had no gigs going on otherwise.

That's great! Same exact story with me. I've been making a living with steemit and Etsy for the past 18ish months. One always backed up the other. I'm a sweating a bit right now because both cryptos are down and my orders have slowed. Trying to weather the storm though. I'm confiedent it will rise again.
