You see the green candles moving up, you constantly encounter many posts about crypto all over your social networks and decide to jump on the hype train before the Bull market ends and invest in some interesting projects (after you've done your own research, hopefully), but your wallet dissagrees? Don't fear, I've got you covered. In this article we will go over some ways to invest in crypto without actually spending money.
1. COINBASE
There are a lot of platforms to buy/sell and trade crypto nowadays, and some, to stand out, offer a unique opprotunity - you earn crypto for learning! One of those is CoinBase.
What crypto can you get?
Right now you can earn NuCypher (NU), The Graph (GRT), Celo (CGLD), Compound (COMP), StellarLumens (XLM), Numenaire (NMR), FileCoin (FIL), Band Protocol (BAND), Algorand (ALGO), Maker (MKR), KyberNetwork (KNC), Orchid (OXT), Tezos (XTZ), DAI, EOS and Basic Attention Token (BAT), total worth of them up to 31 USD.
How to get?
You just need to watch their educational videos about those listed projects and take a quiz afterwards - that's it, you make money while learning about a crypto.
Restrictions
You need to pass KYC verification, witch can take up to two days (I've got my account verified in 3 hours)
2. COINMARKETCAP
Like CoinBase, you can earn some tokens, just by expanding your knowledge about new cryptoprojects.
What crypto can you get?
As of the time of writing (23.03.2021) there is only one ongoing project, which is Nervos Network with their CKB token, but you can subscribe to their email notification system to know, when the next project will be available.
Restrictions
You need to have a KYC-verified account on BINANCE (free), as after you watch the video and pass the test, your tokens will be send to your Binance account.
3. BINANCE
On March 19 Binance announced "Binance Learn & Earn Recap and Quiz: $20,000 OCEAN Giveaway", in which you can earn up to 20 USD in OCEAN, by wathing several videos and taking a quiz afterwards.
4. Other ways to get free crypto
> BRAVE Browser.
This is a completely free way to earn some BAT tokens while browsing an add-free internet. Brave is doing a fantastic job of getting rid of ads (even better than AdBlock), and the ones you do see are paid by Brave in BAT tokens, I've been using this browser for two months and have accumulated almost 3 BAT tokens, with withdrawal minimum of 25 ( a long way to go, but this doens't require you to do anything).
> There are a lot of crypto-faucets, and believe me, I've tried a lot of them, but it's just not worth your time. In most cases you will be paid in cents, with the limit withdrawal set to 500 usd and more, making it impossible to get anything before spending months or even years in the site. Also, there are a lot of scammers out there, so remember - if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
