I was getting very annoyed with Coinbase lately. I kept being wait-listed on their Earn feature for all kinds of assets. 

Finally this morning the e-mail arrived - all of a sudden I was free to earn MKR, XLM, Celo and COMP. I am quite happy and quickly earned some $50, which I swiftly converted in BTC to HODL.

I know there have been multiple news reported on the Coinbase Earn. However:

1. For all people who may not have heard - sign up to Coinbase and earn free tokens, with which you may do whatever you like.

2. If you feel like it - use my referral invitations

Happy earning on Coinbase everyone!

P.S. I found it a little bit strange that in order to earn some COMP, Coinbase made me install their Wallet app on my phone and lend some $3 worth of USDC on the Compound network. In order to do that, they send me free $3 of USDC to my new wallet and $7 of ETH to cover the exuberant gas fees. You may want to skip this phase, but on top of that it sends some more COMP to the Coinbase account (not the wallet). Still, the first three lessons give $9 in COMP, which is still good.
