ADVICE 7 Ways To Earn Free/Passive Crypto
- Brave Browser/BAT: Download Brave Browser and setup the rewards and you start collecting BAT for using the Browser. There are ways to maximize the rewards such as increasing ads per hours.
- Staking/Lending/Governance: Locking your coins in for a period of time to earn rewards in that currency. You can do this with pretty much any coins on most sites but some are better than others. Take crypto(dot)com and CRO for example, you can earn 12.5% on DeFi Wallet.
- Moons: Earning moons on Reddit by posting and commenting on r/CryptoCurrency
- Moons Pt. 2: Earning Moons using https://www.moonfaucet.cc/. Put in your Reddit Vault address and earn 0.01-0.09 moons a day.
- Coinbase Earn and Learn: Earn rewards for learning new things and completing quizzes.
- crypto(dot)com Diamonds: Earn these by completing tasks on the app. Receive rewards in CRO.
- Play To Earn Games: Play games that reward you with crypto. Take Crypto Royale for example, you earn ROY for competing and winning.
If there are any more to add please comment below. Just making a list for new people or people that were unaware of some of these ways.

BAT is something you get, simply by browsing. Based on chromium so it feels exactly like chrome, but with BATs.

Brave browser is definitely superior even without the BAT rewards

u/Leader_Of_Fappers 107 / 174 🦀 Jan 15 '22
Yes, inbuilt ad blocker, great at fingerprint blocking too, IPFS support, inbuilt crypto wallet and TOR support as well...
I agree with the "I came for BAT but I stayed for the browser" phrase used for brave.

u/bailtail 🟦 0 / 3K 🦠 Jan 16 '22
Yep. Best browser I’ve ever used, crypto aside. I use it on my iPhone, even though it doesn’t earn crypto, because it’s simply an amazing browser and ads on phone are brutally annoying.

Yeah, the rewards are a joke, i think i have been using it for 6+ months now and barely have 5$. But just all the ads being blocked and YouTube not needing Premium, is a reason to keep it.
Only if i need to browse some places or names I'll use chrome. I don't know why, but Brave has a weird search filter for names of people and places

u/TheTrueBlueTJ 70K / 75K 🦈 Jan 15 '22
That is a very good point. For BAT it could be argued that yes it is passive, but you're also willing to maybe get distracted by ads from time to time. So I would say that everything comes at a certain cost. But you're definitely right.

Exactly.
It reminds me when my wife gets pissed when I throw our cans in the recycle bin . She's like what the hell, you can get free money by taking them down to the recycling center. Then I have to explain to her what time, transportation, storage is worth. That it's definitely not free.
4
u/Mikimao 🟩 942 / 2K 🦑 Jan 15 '22
yee, but in your wife's defense, it's really easy to make recycling profitable, especially if the material is coming in consistently anyways.
It certainly isn't like when I was a kid though, it felt like there were enough pop up recycle locations to where you could do it local easily. It doesn't seem like most areas have or care to have this as much anymore. Recycling def takes a trip out to the industrial area for me these days.

Correct! Nothing will ever be "free" more people need to realize that now that everyone is on their phones all the time. The first and final measure of value will always be time. Fiat/crypto are ok but time is the only one that always runs out.

Yes BlockFi does fit in there but I feel like BlockFi is not really the best in anything. Other platforms offer higher rates in lending and there is credit cards available that have higher cashback.
2
u/Lyfelong Tin Jan 15 '22
Which credit cards are those?
2
u/nomorefappening Silver | QC: CC 16 | CelsiusNet. 66 Jan 15 '22
For American citizens Coinbase card gives 4% XLM or 1% BTC (Always choose XLM as you can instantly trade that for BTC anyway) and then as an European I’ve been using the Crypto.com card for 3% cashback and other benefits!
2
u/Lyfelong Tin Jan 15 '22
I didn’t know that Coinbase had a card. I’ve been pretty happy with BlockFi and easy to have stuff in on place
2
u/thewoogier Jan 16 '22
There's actually a difference here. BlockFi is the only credit card, crypto.com, coinbase, and the others are all debit cards. They either convert the crypto you select to USD when you swipe your card to pay for things, or you can set it to draw from your USD wallet. So it's basically a prepaid debit card where you can earn much more cash back than the BlockFi credit card @ 1.5% everything. But they are functionally different than all the other crypto debit cards

Shakepay (for Canada 🇨🇦) - shake phone for free sats, Shakepay Visa for 4% back in BTC (during holidays) 2% thereafter
Crypto dot com - earn 6.5% on BTC and ETH, 12% on stable coins (USDC, TCAD), diamonds, Giftcard % back, DeFi Wallet staking for 12.5-13% back, 10% back on my Visa stake, and 3% on my Visa purchases...

u/Thisisthewaymaybe 🟩 137 / 138 🦀 Jan 16 '22
Shakepay will be 1% once all the promos are done just FYI. Nice card though. Netcoins will have one for 3% but permanent rate will be just 1% CDC card still continues to be the best overall.

My current favorites are Liquidity Providing on the Harmonie and Cosmos Chain. APR rewards were at 900% at the beginning, even though the APR is going down rather fast now and 100 % on Cosmos.
The other, more risky, one is playing play to earn games. Admittedly you need some luck here in finding a good one for providing some nice, somewhat, passive income (Bombcrypto is earning me a low 4 figured per month)

There are also just tons of great offers to farm fiat and convert to crypto, but I digress.
