4 Simple Ways I Stack Sats in Less Than 10 Minutes a Day
As Matt Odell often says, "Stay humble and stack sats."
Is it easier said than done? Absolutely.
But do the normies or no-coiners in your life know how to stack sats? Maybe, maybe not.
My goal with this post is to share a few fun ways that I've shared with others, and now you, that allow me to stack satoshis every single day.
And what's great about them is that for people who are opposed to Bitcoin or too scared to get off zero, no account funding or Bitcoin-buying (yet) is necessary.
Let's jump into the rabbit hole.
1. Use play-to-earn Bitcoin games
Play-to-earn (P2E) Bitcoin games are an awesome way to start someone's orange pill journey.
Everyone you know likely has a phone, has downloaded other apps, and probably already spends time playing things like Candy Crush or Wordscapes.
The first P2E Bitcoin game I downloaded and played was Viker's Balls King, a classic brick-breaking game that I played more often than I care to admit. (And why wouldn't you when free sats are on the table?)
As you play and progress, you earn a small amounts of sats which you can then withdraw (i.e., cash out) to your own Bitcoin Lightning wallet.
How? Through Zebedee, a company that works with gaming companies to create easy ways to incorporate real Bitcoin into their games and for you to earn it.
Now, I almost exclusively use play-to-earn Bitcoin games from THNDR, who creates some of the best ones including:
- Turbo84
- Bitcoin Snake
- Bitcoin Blocks
- Club Bitcoin: Solitaire
As you play THNDR's Bitcoin games, you earn tickets that often get entered into a raffle usually every hour to potentially win anywhere from 1 satoshi to 2,000 satoshis in Club Bitcoin, for example.
Why I love THNDR Games over other P2E gaming products that I've tried is that I can withdraw my Bitcoin winnings to the Lightning wallet of my choice (e.g., Muun or Phoenix) that I've got downloaded on my phone.
Most people are playing games like the ones I mentioned above already – why not earn sats, risk-free?
2. Read articles Bitcoin Magazine App (formerly Carrot)
If someone doesn't care about Bitcoin, this option might not be a great one to lead with. That said, the Bitcoin Magazine app allows people to read articles in exchange for sats.
Typically, each article read will earn you 5 sats. Every now and then they'll have sponsored or spotlighted Bitcoin articles that earn you even more (e.g., 25, 50, 200 sats).
Plus, every week on Twitter, they have Flash Code Friday where you can scan or enter a code into the Bitcoin Magazine App to redeem 250 sats (while supplies last or until it expires).
Get paid to learn for once and give Bitcoin Magazine App a chance. Then, once you've stacked some sats, withdraw them to your favourite Lightning wallet.
3. Listen to podcasts on Fountain App
In their own words, "Fountain is the only place where listeners and podcasters get rewarded for the value they provide for others."
Put simply, you listen to podcasts and earn sats for the first hour every day. Your earning capacity changes daily, too, so you could earn 1 sat per minute or more.
What sets Fountain apart is that their podcast app allows you to participate in a circular, value-for-value economy through other in-app features such as:
- Creating and sharing clips – Not everyone has time to listen to multi-hour podcasts, so creating or getting the TL;DL (too long didn't listen) in the form of a clip is helpful. As a reward, when other users Like your clips, you get paid.
- Showing your support – Fountain has a built-in Lightning wallet so if you don't want to withdraw your Bitcoin earings, you can easily give back to the shows you love. You do this by streaming sats directly to your favourite podcasts for every minute you listen or sending a Boost to comment.
It's a win-win podcast app that allows you to easily earn sats and, if you want, give them back!
4. Shop online with Coinmiles
Coinmiles enables you to earn Bitcoin rewards when you shop online or in-store.
It's simple. In the Coinmiles app, you:
- Select a brand – Choose from more than 100 brands available in Canada and over 1000 brands online.
- Enter the purchase amount – Pay with your credit card ahead of time or even last minute at the cashier with the exact amount.
- Earn Bitcoin and use the card right away – Use your virtual gift card to pay in-store with a QR code or online with a gift card code.
On every Coinmiles purchase, you can earn anywhere from up to 1% back in Bitcoin to 25% from what I've seen in the app.
When you download the app through my Coinmiles referral link, we'll each get 25,000 sats if you make a qualified purchase within 120 days.
Go forth, stay humble, and stack sats
If you read this far, you know there are literally zero reasons why you can't earn a single sat in the next five minutes.
Hell, I can do at least four of the things I listed above in less than 10 minutes a day.
The Bitcoin builders are making it easier by the day to stack sats. You might know that, but too many people don't.
So if you found this post valuable, please share it with someone who's new to Bitcoin or doesn't know about it yet. 🧡
