Rant #16: Coinbase Earn is the app's niche

By zpaul_2020blu | Rant Page | 9 Oct 2020


I love getting those post notifications from Coinbase that there is a Coin Earning Opportunity (Earn). Referral ones are a bit trickier since a lot of friends don't use Coinbase or care to get on the app to learn about DeFi, cryptocurrency, or an avenue to a new digital space, but the opportunity every once in a while to get $6 to $8 in a Coin Earning Opportunity has always been appealing!

To list some of the tokens I would've never invested in or learned about without these Coin Earning Opportunities, I'll start with the most important to my daily functionality, trading, and continued investment:

  • BAT
  • ETH
    • Wasn't an Coin Earning Opportunity but there's so many ETH backed tokens now compared to 2 years ago, Jesus Christ
  • DAI
  • LTH
  • Kyber
    • Continued may be a strong word here, but since I've put $ on it more than 2x, I'll include

Now I've mentioned my love for BAT in the past (see here), and its the best example of why Coin Earning Opportunities are so important. Never would've gotten on Brave, looked at the ads, or gotten a very minuet milestone of earning about $10/mon in BAT and ETH via Publish0x and Brave Ads. I'll also take a quick moment to thank you the reader or cool follower for that! Baby steps y'all, baby steps.

Now I know Binance, Crypto.com and other platforms have to do something similar, but without it being as heavily promoted, its a bit more tricky to learn about the tokens they truly believe are legitimized enough to make it long term. Knowledge here always appreciated, but for now, hoping many won't completely turn a blind eye to Coinbase on this. They charge higher fees, trust me I've already bashed them for that (here). But the Coin Earning Opportunity is an excellent way for others to begin learning and accruing, even if its a baby step.
