A few months ago I came up with an ambitious plan, a straightforward idea: everything and anything I do, every day, has to be a source of passive crypto income.
The good news is it is not as impossible as it sounds, the bad news is we’re obviously talking peanuts.
The first thing I did was I started using Brave. Brave, as most of you know, is a fast and efficient browser that also pays you to use it.
I set it up on my Windows 10 notebook but unfortunately I can’t use it on my iPhone (Apple supports Brave but not the crypto part).
That means that every day I earn some BAT, Basic Attention Token, the ERC-20 token that powers Brave.
In addition to that, I signed up to Honeygain, a browser extension that allows you to earn a BEP-20 token called JumpTask (JMPT) simply by using it. It feeds off the GB you use.
What else do I do every day? I walk. It took me a while but I finally found a decent app that pays crypto for walking (and quizzes and other things, ed.) called Young Step, which is paired to an exchange called Young Platform.
You earn Young (YNG), an ERC-20 token that used to have a fixed value and could only be used for internal exchanged, but it is now a tradable token (worth around $0.20) at the time or writing.
I make around 45 YNG (monthly) through that.
I’ve also been using Sweatcoin for months. I must admit I was tempted to delete it on more than one occasion, but I never did.
And that was a smart decision because Sweatcoins will launch a proper token (SWEAT, in partnership with Near Protocol) in September 2022.
I used the crypto.com entry-level card for as long as I could, getting the most out of the 1% cryptoback rewards programme, but unfortunately that’s now gone, so I’m using the Nexo card instead, with a cashback of (0.5%-2.0% in NEXO token, depending on the amount of NEXO you already hold).
And then lastly, I use various play-to-earn-style apps such as Bitcoin- and EthereumBlast daily. Along with FaucetCrypto, where I make a few dollars (payable in a variety of currencies, including BTC, LTC, BCH and more) monthly by completing simple tasks.
Now I just need to figure a way to ‘tokenise’ my beer consumption.
Got anything in mind?
