If you've gotten into Bitcoin because of Nostr, you may be interested in earning a little bit of Bitcoin beyond posting on Nostr. I personally feel it's better to create content on Nostr and receive Zaps, but not all of us have the time to do this. And let's be honest, sometimes the creative juices just won't flow.
If you're going to listen to podcasts anyways, you might as well earn sats for doing it. That's right, you can earn Bitcoin just by listening to podcasts. You can do this via the Foundtain app. https://fountain.fm/derekmross?code=5d7c3190ec
Stacker News is essentially "Reddit" but with Bitcoin. It's very similar to the new NIP-172 Moderated Communities here on Nostr. You can share links or comments and earn sats for your contributions. https://stacker.news
Lolli has Bitcoin rewards back for buying items online and in store via linked cards earns you Bitcoin back at thousands of locations. Even if you don't shop online all that much or in-store at the supported locations, they still have a daily "chest" that you can open for free sats. Most days you'll get 20-50 sats. I've gotten 1,000 several times, 10,000 maybe twice, and even 100,000 once before. (USA only) https://lolli.com/share/derek
Fold is another way to earn sats back on all of your purchases. You can buy gift cards and earn sats back on those purchases or you can deposit fiat into your Fold account and earn sats back on all of your debit card purchases. Fold also has a daily "spin" wheel that gives you free sats. You'll get 5-50 per day on average. (USA only) https://use.foldapp.com/r/KNTJ4YVL
Bitcoin Magazine pays you 5 sats per article if you read the articles via their Bitcoin Magazine app. If you're going to read them anyways, you might as well use their application to earn bitcoin. Sometimes you'll find bonus articles with 25 or 50 sat rewards on them too. Plus, Bitcoin Magazine also has weekly "Flash Code" Friday events where they share a code on Twitter and maybe starting this week on Nostr too. These codes will generally reward 250+ sats. https://www.bitcoinmagazine.app
The Choice app will allow you to setup a Bitcoin IRA if you have specific circumstances that makes an IRA more enticing to you than just straight Bitcoin. Beyond that, they have a daily "Plinko" game where you can earn 50-500 sats a day or zero if you have bad luck. https://use.choiceapp.io/wdlnwz4
ZBD and THNDR both are offer games that allow you to earn a few sats here and there. To me, these are not worth it as you're bombarded with intrusive ads. However, if you're going to play these sorts of games anyway, I guess earning a few sats is better than nothing. https://zbd.gg/waitlist/MQNGM8XP5 and https://blocks.thndr.games/r/c3VX (Tetro Tiles is kind of addicting and fun and it gives Nostr badges!)
The sMiles Bitcoin app allows you to earn sats just for walking. They also have very simple daily games and daily chests or wheels that allow you to stack a tiny bit more. No pun in intended here, but your mileage may vary here. I never earned much with this app when I used try to use it. Others seem to swear by it though. The app also offers surveys and shopping rewards for additional ways to stack sats, though I have never used any of these. https://join.smilesbitcoin.com/derekross832
I use most of the above daily. I don't use ZBD or THNDR besides playing a new game when it comes out to try it out. I don't use sMiles any longer because it doesn't work all that well for me.
Most of the above contain affiliate links. These links usually give me bonus sats and you bonus sats.
