After dabbling with move2earn for most of last year (see posts here and here and dipping my toes into the play2earn arena, it got me thinking..
How many of my daily activities can i earn some crypto from?
Quite a few, is the answer, and in some cases you can get paid in several ways for the same activities.
The main sources of my monetised-habits income is generally from move-to-earn apps, with smaller amounts coming from reading, writing and listening to podcasts. Casual play-to-earn gaming produces variable returns each week, depending on how much time i have to kill.
Move to earn
Because I've already discussed the M2E apps i use in previous blog posts, I'm not going to go into much detail about those here. Suffice to say there are a few of them, and these are free to use, no NFT purchases required! I'm also beta testing an 'exercise to earn' app but I'll write about that separately, as the 'currency' isn't yet traded, and it does need an NFT to qualify for earnings.
I haven't included any Euro or Dollar amounts here, as by the time i post this the value will have changed anyway. Suffice to say i'm not going to be retiring any time soon lol. But thats not the point. The point is to see how the various currencies add up over time, so I'll probably do a monthly or quarterly summary, just to put a number on it at those milestones.
If you'd like to try any of these apps, here are the links to do so.

Read, write, and listen to earn.
Since I haven't been very active yet this year on Publish0x, my earnings there amount to about 20c at time of writing, from reading & tipping other authors for valuable content. I'm sure you can do better than this, so here's the link to get your account set up .
Fountain is a podcasting app that uses Value for Value and rewards using the bitcoin lightning network. This allows transfers of tiny amounts of bitcoin without any crazy transaction(gas) fees. It was designed for exactly this kind of micro transaction. You too can earn sats for listening by downloading it here
Carrot is a crypto news app by bitcoin inc, also using the lightning network.
The fact that you're reading this means you're already aware of hive, where the posts from Actifit go to live. Because hive pays out rewards on posts after 7 days i don't have much details from there yet. I haven't been posting much here recently besides the actifit reports and an occasional random post, but that's something i'll be changing as i spend less time on facebook and more on hive. If you're looking to improve your fitness i have some guides and workout videos posted here.
Play to earnMy focus is on casual games that you can pick up and play for a few minutes, and still get some kind of reward. I've found a bunch of these from the same company. I'll link the posts to those games once they are published.

Full disclosure, i also play splinterlands with the username @DRBLOODYMAL, but since i haven't played yet this year, theres nothing to share.
Anyway, that pretty much wraps things up for this weeks report, and hopefully gives you a sense of what I'm doing to earn a little crypto from things i'd be doing anyway. Let me know if you find this post useful, or if you know of other apps you think i might be good additions to what i'm doing. Also, i'm happy to help you get set up with anything i've mentioned above.
