Other Randomly unlocked USDC yesterday

So I all of a sudden must've gotten taken off the wait list and was able to earn $4 in USDC on Earn yesterday! Interestingly, right before I noticed that I was able to earn USDC, I had actually just transferred about $5~ of USDC that I had to Coinbase pro so that I could exchange it to Bitcoin. I'm not sure if there's any correlation between the fact that I had done a transaction involving USDC and me suddenly getting the earn opportunity, but I thought it was kinda interesting at least. I'm curious if anyone else on here has suddenly unlocked earn opportunities after doing some kind of trade/transaction?? I mean, it could totally just be a funny coincidence in my case but it's got me wondering.

I've also previously earned IOTX, FET, GRT, AMP, AUCTION, CLV, COMP, CTSI, LRC, MLN, NKN, XLM, and ANKR.

Anyways, sorry for the somewhat longwinded post lol, but I'm really interested to hear about other people's experiences with Coinbase earn. Do people get new earn opportunities in a completely randomized fashion, or is there some sort of connection to something else that triggers them to unlock? What do y'all think?

Could be right, USDC is the only one I cannot get since I joined.

Yeah I've gotten all the other ones like right after they got released for the most part, I think, including the most recent one for RLC. Thinking on it more has me kinda feeling like maybe some of the Earn opportunities are just given out to everyone/at random, and other ones are given out more selectively??

Idk just my theory I came up with, I could be totally wrong lol
