I don't exactly recall when I started collecting Coingecko's candy rewards, but I remember it was a long time ago. Until today, the only thing I had claimed using the candies were online access tickets to a conference held years ago, which gave me the opportunity to obtain an NFT symbolizing my participation in the event.

Since then, I never had another chance to claim another prize using the candies, and I even missed out on big prizes like tokens that other users and candy collectors had the privilege of winning using the candies. But I never stopped waking up and claiming my favorite Coingecko candies.

Coingecko is a platform that aggregates token prices, exchange values in real-time also monitor DeFi blockchain protocols, allowing users, investors, and companies operating in the crypto ecosystem to track the market. They are a credible company and, alongside CoinMarketCap, the most popular ones in the space. They dominate the market and share the pie with other businesses in the same industry.

To encourage users to participate in the Coingecko ecosystem, they introduced a rewards program where users can daily have the privilege of collecting candies and redeeming them for various prizes provided by the company in the dedicated space on the platform. Among the prizes, users can redeem books, vouchers, participate in raffles to win numerous rewards, use candies to purchase VIP user packages, and more.

It was in one of these redemptions that I recently had the opportunity to participate in a raffle where the prize was 2000 Near NFTs. One lucky user had the chance to win $5000 worth of Near tokens and an all-expenses-paid stay at the next Blockchain event to be held in Portugal. Without hesitation, I joined the event and spent 800 candies to participate, receiving a voucher for access to the contest.

Fortunately, after two days of waiting and fulfilling the participation requirements, I received an email in the early hours of today, informing me that I was one of the lucky ones to claim a dedicated NFT. Since I didn't have a Near wallet yet, I was invited to create an address to redeem the NFT, and it was promptly deposited into the address.

It's a simple NFT, and according to the organizers, all raffle participants still have a chance to enter for a chance to win $5,000 worth of Near tokens and have everything paid for the next Blockchain conference taking place in Portugal in a draw to be held this Friday, the 26th.

So, by having the opportunity to participate in the Coingecko event, I had the privilege of winning this NFT using my candy tokens. After all, my daily effort and dedication in claiming the candies paid off, and I still have 14,000 candies available for another occasion.

If you're a crypto addict, I recommend checking out Coingecko's candies up close. To gain access, all you need to do is create an account using an email and set a password to claim free candies daily, which give you access to various platform prizes. Before embarking on this adventure, it's advisable to do some basic research to understand that Coingecko is a reliable company in the crypto ecosystem.

If you're a crypto hunter, here are two opportunities to earn free tokens using Zealy: a campaign by SUISWAP that will distribute free tokens after the IDO on June 3rd, and also the Zealy Campaign by MAYFAIRFUND, which will distribute prizes to campaign participants on Monday, the 29th.
