You Can Get Into Cryptocurrency

Bitcoin

It seems like cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are always in the news, its value always shifting and its viability as a long term investment hotly debated. Getting into these may look daunting and not practical for college students, however not only can you easily access this world of online money trading, but you can also receive Bitcoin and Ethereum for free.

Earning

To start off, you will need a wallet to deposit your Bitcoin; I recommend using BitPay, which is a wallet I personally use to keep my Bitcoin that I earn.

My personal favorite way to get bitcoin for free is the new browser Cryptotab, which generates bitcoin for you while you browse. It functions just like Google Chrome or Firefox except you also earn Bitcoin while you normally surf the web. When you meet the threshold, you can withdraw the Bitcoin into a wallet and watch it grow over time. It is a great way to make Bitcoin without almost any effort.

Microfaucets are another way to earn Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for free. In exchange for using your computing power, they reward you with small amounts of the currency, for example with Bitcoin you get Satoshi, which are equal to 0.00000001 bitcoin. They don't give you very much money, but if you run it long enough, you can get a decent payout. One site that I use to get free cryptocurrencies is BitFun. BitFun lets you claim Satoshi every three minutes while providing you with games and other offers to pass the time; you can sign up here


Investing

Another way to benefit from cryptocurrencies is to buy some of it and sell it when it rises, thus making a profit.

Robinhood is an app that allows you to buy and sell stocks on the market and included are cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. You can buy any amount of them and sell them at any time, potentially making a nice tidy profit if you sell at the right time. If you sign up here, they'll even give you a free stock to start off your portfolio!


Cryptocurrencies are relatively new compared to other forms of investments, but they could help you make a lot of money.

Uploading Receipts and Making Money

When you go out for shopping, usually the receipts you get at the end of your purchases go straight to the garbage, never to be seen again.

What if I told you that those pesky receipts could actually earn you money just by taking a picture of them? With these two free and simple apps, you'll put those old receipts to work in no time. Receipt Hog One of my personal favorite apps for receipt earning, Receipt Hog gives you points back just by uploading a picture of any shopping receipt you have and answering between one to three simple easy questions.

Frauds and Scams in the World

As much as we would like to think that people are good people and have good intentions towards other people, there are many frauds and scams in the world that take advantage of naivety to loot and steal. While we shouldn't go around fearing everyone and everything, just having simple knowledge and common sense will make you much more prepared to identify and avoid these schemes. Here are some of the worst ones : Phishing Scams This scam usually involves a scammer sending a message (usually through email) pretending to be an authority in order to dupe victims into giving over sensitive information like passwords, credit card numbers, and even money. An example of this scam would be getting an email claiming to be Google and that you need to click on a link to update your account otherwise it will close. Then you would be directed to a bogus link that seems legit, and the scammers gather your information when you put in your information. Always check the url of the link, if it
