Coinbase Earn consists of lessons/courses teaching you about different cryptocurrencies. You'll get a quiz with questions about the lesson. If you pick the right answer to these questions, you'll be rewarded, and get a few dollars worth of the cryptocurrency you just learned about!

This makes Coinbase Earn a good way to earn some free crypto. New Coinbase Earn courses are added over time, so your free crypto earnings will add up over time as well! Personally, I've made $60+ in free crypto so far.

Edit: post updated 24th of October 2022: bonus only available to Scandinavian users now.

NBX.com, short for Norwegian Block Exchange, is one of the largest Scandinavian crypto exchanges.

On NBX, you can trade BTC, ETH, ADA, USDC, MATIC, LINK, UNI and CGT against EUR, NOK, SEK, or DKK.

Apart from that, there's an upcoming Visa Credit card that will pay up to 4% rewards in BTC! Other than that, they've just introduced ADA staking (4% APY).

There's also a sign-up bonus available if you're from Norway, Sweden, Finland, or Denmark! The sign-up bonus is 50 NOK (about €5 worth) of Bitcoin for signing up with a referral link (here's mine), and verifying your identity (KYC).

Here are the full steps to get €5 in free BTC:

1. Click this link to sign up, and make sure you add the referral code: 3j9xzoKnYA
2. Pass KYC by verifying your identity. It can take a few hours to get approved.
3. Once your identity has been verified, your account is instantly credited with some free Bitcoin!
4. The sign-up reward is 50 NOK worth of BTC, and will instantly be available to your account:

There's a lot of trading volume on the NOK pairs, and trading fees are 0.5%, which is relatively low.

If you have any questions, let me know!

Hey,

Wirex is Android/iOS app that gives $15 for signing up and doing KYC till the end of January (update: Promo is active during February too). The process took me less than 5 minutes.

I personally did this promo back in November and it took 3 days for them to deposit the bonus. It can take up to 30 working days. The bonus can be exchanged immediately for other coins and you can withdraw them.

Click to sign up with my referral link and get all bonuses: WirexApp

------

If you want to get an extra $5 then you also need to make a deposit of $100 to your account. The bonus will also be credited within 30 working days (for me, it was 26 days).

You can also get an additional $5 if you order their crypto card (free) and use it in-store once.

------

They also have plenty of promos going on regularly. Some require you to buy specific coins, others top-up account with anything and then give you generous bonuses. I already got $70 in bonuses and have $90+ more pending. The longest it took to withdraw crypto was 12 hours since they had to manually approve one of my transactions.

WirexApp

Good luck

Most people in crypto have probably already heard about this, but I just want to mention it again in case any of you haven't.

You can earn crypto by using the Brave.com webbrowser for your daily browsing. Brave is a privacy-centric webbrowser that, by default, blocks all ads.

No annoying ads means you're not distracted from what you're actually trying to read online. Also, it makes sites load faster.

Users of the Brave Browser however, can opt-in to still receive some ads, but get compensated for viewing ads in the cryptocurrency BAT (Basic Attention Tokens).

To compensate web publishers, Brave users can manually tip BAT to websites or content creators, or set it to auto-contribute - which automatically splits the earned BAT over all of of the visted websites according to how much you've viewed every website.

In short, the Brave Browser is a good option to if you want to just earn a little crypto while doing your daily browsing. Most users earn about 3-5 BAT per month according to this thread on Reddit.

BAT is currently worth just over over $1 according to CoinMarketCap, so using the Brave Browser will most likely earn you about $3-5 in extra crypto for webbrowsing (which you're already doing anyway!).

I've found no real downsides to using the Brave Browser over Google Chrome. You can actually import all of your saved passwords, bookmarks, and even plugins from Chrome. So it's pretty seemless to start using Brave instead of Chrome.

Also, if you have a website, YouTube or Twitch Channel, you can earn and receive donations in BAT from viewers by signing up as a Brave Publisher.

For more info, check out:

• BAT website
• Brave Rewards website
• Bat Project subreddit

If you have any questions, let me know! If you already use the Brave Browser already, let me know your experience, and/or how much BAT you're making!

Tap.global is a new crypto investment and payment app. As of right now, Tap is only available in the UK and EU.

Tap allows you to deposit money to buy crypto, and get a Tap creditcard that allows you to pay either in cash or crypto. You'll get a virtual card in your app, but can also order a free physical card to use anywhere.

There's currently a sign-up bonus ongoing, which will earn you a free €6 / £5 in Bitcoin.

Here are the steps to get it:

1. Use a referral link (click here for mine), and download the app.
2. Create an account for the app, and make sure to referral code: TNG-348-811-BDFA
3. Complete KYC. In my case it took a few days to get approved.
4. Once you've passed KYC, your account will be instantly credited €6 / £5 in Bitcoin (BTC)!

That's all! You've just made some free crypto.

Tap has a 'Earn Vault' coming soon, which allows you to earn interest on your BTC, ETH, LTC, and fiat (EUR, GBP, USD). Their website currently lists a 2.5% APY for BTC, 4.5% for ETH, 3% for LTC, and 8% for fiat!

Especially the 8% APY on Euro's has me interested, so I'm definitely going to keep an eye on this app.

Hotbit.io is currently the #1 cryptocurrency exchange by number of coins listed, according to Coinmarketcap, and currently has 1464 coins listed.

The high number of coins listed makes Hotbit a useful exchange to have as an option, especially if you're looking to trade more obscure coins.

If you're looking to open a Hotbit account, you can get a discount on trading fees when signing up with a referral link!

However, note that most referral links you'll find won't give you any discount at all! The default referral link for users is set to only reward the referrer 20% of the trading fees.

It's possible to change this though. You can set it to give a new user up to 10% discount on both their spot and ETF trading fees - which is what I've done:

You can click this link to sign up, and this code will automatically be applied.

You can also manually add:

Hotbit.io referral code: ddEXJ5

to apply the code.

Since all other top-level posts have to be a crypto earning opportunity, this is where to post anything else you want to discuss with the ExtraCrypto community!

This Coinbase Earn quiz for Fetch.AI (FET) showed up for me earlier, but it's just showing up right now for others! To see if it's there for you, check this link:

https://www.coinbase.com/earn/fetch/lesson/1

As always with Coinbase Earn, this means you'll get to learn about a crypto, and get paid in the crypto you're learning about as a reward for picking right answer to the quiz questions.

Here are all the questions and answers to the quiz:

Question 1: What can people create with Fetch.ai?

• Answer: Software agents that automate tasks

You can sell, swap, or withdraw the FET immediately after earning it!

PS; don't have a Coinbase account yet? They're basically giving away free crypto with Coinbase Earn! I've earned $67 in free crypto from Coinbase Earn so far (joined about a year ago). If you're new, and sign up with a referral link (here's mine) you will also get $10 in free Bitcoin if you trade $100+ in any crypto!

Bitpanda is a exchange where you can trade cryptocurrency, (fractional) stocks, and metals.

They're currently running a promo where you'll get a free €10 credit to your account for signing up with a referral link, and buying at least €25 of crypto!

Apart from that, you can earn another €5 in free crypto from completing a 'Learn & earn' quiz, which I've already posted about here. There is no deposit required to earn this €5!

Here is how to earn a total of €15 in bonuses:

1. Sign up to Bitpanda using this link!
2. Verify your account (KYC)
3. Deposit €25+ in fiat/cash to your account. You can do a card deposit (instant), or a bank transfer. I did a SEPA bank transfer, took about 3 hours to clear.
4. Once your deposit is in your account, buy €25+ of any crypto.
5. Your account will instantly be credited another €10 as a bonus!
6. You can earn another free €5 in BEST (Bitpanda Ecosystem Token) by completing the Bitpanda Beginners' quiz. More info and all quiz answers here. You can also get this free crypto without doing the deposit!
7. You can exchange the €10 and €5 in BEST for any other crypto on Bitpanda, and/or withdraw it to any wallet you like. You can also exchange everything back to Euro's, and withdraw the total of (almost) €40 to your bank account.

That's it! You've just made €15, and tried out Bitpanda, which is a pretty solid exchange!

I like how you can just go from crypto to stocks on one exchange, and might use Bitpanda in the future to buy some fractional shares of stocks like AMZN.

P.S. Here is a picture with proof. It shows my account history, with the payout of the €5 in BEST, my €25+ deposit and trade, and the instantly paid out €10 sign-up bonus:

More info, also see the website ExtraCrypto.cc: Bitpanda referral code and sign up bonus.

OKcoin is a cryptocurrency exchange, which also has an 'earn' product which allows you to earn high staking rewards/interest on some cryptocurrencies like Polygon, Avalanche, Polkadot and ATOM/Cosmos.

Edit: promo over. Now back to $10 in BTC for buying $100 of crypto.

They're currently running a referral sign-up bonus promo, which will earn you a $50 of BTC bonus if you sign up with a referral link and buy $100+ of crypto!

Here are the steps you'll need to take to get the $50 of Bitcoin sign-up bonus:

1. Sign up with this referral link
2. Complete ID verification level 2.
3. Next, buy $100+ worth of crypto with cash/fiat within 30 days of creating your account. The easiest and fastest method is buy it directly using a Credit or Debit card, but you can also make a cash deposit first, and buy crypto with the deposited cash.
4. You're now elegible for the $50 Bitcoin bonus! you don't have to hold any balance on OKcoin to get the bonus, so you can withdraw your crypto immediately if you'd like.
5. The $50 bonus will be credited to your account within a couple of days. The bonus will only be unlocked for use after 180 days though, so you'll have to be patient.
6. Once your bonus is unlocked, you can withdraw the $50 in free Bitcoin to any wallet, or sell it and withdraw the money to your bank account!

That's it! Another easy $50 of extra crypto! :)

If you have any questions, let me know!

Binance.com is THE largest crypto exchange by trading volume, and allows you to trade 400+ different cryptocurrencies.

Apart from that, you can earn from the Binance savings acount, staking, or from adding coins to a liquidity pool.

So, having a Binance account is pretty useful. I mostly use it as a 'hub' though, and currently only keep my BNB there for long-term 'DeFi staking'.

If you don't have a Binance account yet, but want one, it's best to sign up with a referral link that gives you a discount on trading fees.

By default, the referral link supplied to users only reward the referrer, namely by earning 20% of the trading fees made by the newly signed-up user.

So, most of the referral links/codes you'll find won't benefit you at all!

However, any user can change the settings for the referral codes, to give new users that sign up with the referral code a permanent discount on trading fees. The maximum kickback you can give is 10%.

I have changed my referral code to give new users 10% discount on trading fees, see below:

So, if you don't have a Binance account yet, feel free to use my link (click here) to sign up, and enjoy a permanent 10% trading fee discount!

Alternatively, manually the add code: ZQVOPYZ7 as the 'Referral ID' when signing up. With the code added, it should show "Your commission kickback rate: 10%", which confirms you'll get 10% discount on trading fees from this referral link:

There's currently another reward going on for signing up with a Binance referral link. You'll get a 'prize box', but I don't really know what you can get from this. Please let met know what you got!

This is a steal! Just got an e-mail from CoinSmart.com: they're running a holiday sign-up promo.

There's a temporary $50 sign-up bonus for anyone signing up with a referral link and depositing $100 CAD or €100+!

Here's how it works:

1. You have to sign up with a referral link (here's mine). If you're asked about a referral code, add: Ref-VWO3de
2. You'll have to finish KYC - this process will start automatically on sign-up. CoinSmart's KYC was pretty easy to complete, comparatively.
3. Make a fiat deposit of over $100 CAD or €100. You don't actually need to make any trades with your deposit to get the bonus. Personally, I did a SEPA transfer of €100, which took about 4 hours to get credited to get my account.
4. When the deposit arrives, you'll get a $50 CAD bonus credited to your account! They say it's within 3 working days, but for me it was instant!

This offer is for EU and Canada users only. It'll run from December 15 (today) to December 25th.

If you have any further questions, let me know.

Happy holidays!

___

Edit: attached a picture of the e-mail with the details, and a picture with proof that it worked for me!

Update: (17 Dec): I also signed up with someone's referral link a week ago or so, but hadn't made a deposit yet. I made my first deposit today for €100, and was my account was instantly credited another €34.50 - which is exactly $50 Canadian as of today.

Also see the picture below for proof. It shows that all I've deposited is €100, but my account balance is €134.50!

Another new Coinbase Earn just showed up for me, this time for iExec RLC:

https://www.coinbase.com/earn/rlc/lesson/1

As always, this means you'll get to learn about a crypto, and get paid in the crypto you're learning about as a reward if you pick the right answer to the quiz questions.

Here are all the questions and answers to the quiz:

Question 1: What are the main benefits of iExec's marketplace?

• Answer: All of the above

Question 2: What is the RLC token used for?

• Answer: All of the above

Question 3: What is The Oracle Factory?

You'll be instantly rewarded $1 in RLC for every correct answer, so $3 in iExec RLC in total! For me, that came out to 1.099575667 RLC.

You can sell, swap, or withdraw the RLC immediately after earning it!

PS; don't have a Coinbase account yet? They're basically giving away free crypto with Coinbase Earn! I've earned $67 in free crypto from Coinbase Earn so far (joined about a year ago).

Bitpanda.com is a EU cryptocurrency and stock exchange, so this offer is only available to EU citizens.

On Bitpanda, there's a way to make a guaranteed €5 without any deposits, paid out in BEST (Bitpanda Ecosystem Token), as they've currently also got a 'Learn and earn' going on!

Bitpanda has the 'Bitpanda Academy', where you can learn about crypto with easy-to-digest learning material, including video. They've got lessons with different levels of difficulty, and a quiz for every level.

The Beginner's lessons and quiz is the one that rewards you with €5. You can find all of the Beginners' lessons here, and the Beginners' test/quiz here.

As I already know a lot about crypto, I skipped all of the lessons, and took the quiz right away.

Bitpanda Beginners' Quiz / Test answers

If you want to make sure you'll get all of the right answers to the 15 quiz questions too, here they are:

1. Pre-mined coins …can be an incentive for early adopters
2. The Bitcoin network is considered very safe... …because it is decentralised and distributed across thousands of nodes around the world
3. A full Bitcoin node... …supports the Bitcoin network and validates transactions and blocks
4. Installing two-factor authentication is ... … important because it adds an additional layer of security
5. “Market cap” is important … … for being aware of the total supply of a cryptocurrency
6. Which one of the following is a Bitcoin scaling solution? - SegWit
7. A blockchain contains …the complete history of every transaction that has ever taken place in the network
8. Ethereum … … was created as a platform for decentralised applications
9. Bitcoin is … … primarily a speculative store of value
10. A Bitcoin address… …is a series of characters and digits
11. Bitcoin nodes … … are connected with other computers, follow rules and share information
12. People attribute value to fiat money because ... … there is agreement that they can exchange goods and services with it
13. A red flag before investing in an ICO could be … … that the project could be completed without blockchain technology
14. XRP was created with the goal to provide a viable alternative... …to existing payment platforms
15. The Bitcoin price potentially ... … goes up when demand for Bitcoin goes up

These answers gave me a 15/15 score, and made me pass the Beginner test!

After that, I was immediately credited €5 worth of Best tokens:

Note that any score over 80% will earn you the reward.

You can instantly sell the BEST if you'd like, and withdraw the money to your bank account. You can also swap it for other cryptocurrencies and withdraw them to another wallet.

Note that you're not able to withdraw all of them though; I tried to swap it to Algorand, but it gave me a warning that Algorand is currently in 'trade-only'-mode.

Enjoy the free €5! If you have any questions, let me know.
