I don't know about you but I am starting to get excited about all things cypto again. The last time I remember feeling like this was, well, I can't remember so today I am just going to mention some of the crypto-related things that I am currently enjoying.
The market is up over the last couple days with Bitcoin up about 3% & Litecoin up 15% and that is nice and creates a positive feeling in anyone invested, which makes places like steem more fun.
A couple days ago I read this post by @cflclosers
https://steemleo.com/steemleo/@cflclosers/have-you-been-ignoring-brave-browser and just the title got me thinking. I had the Brave browser, I got it back in the summer of 2017, used it for a while then kind of let it fall by the wayside. I mean, ALL my passwords were on chrome and I found myself using two browsers at once, which felt dumb so I stopped using Brave.
After reading that article I felt like I was missing out on the rewards (FREE CRYPTO) that Brave is handing out in the form of Basic Attention Tokens (BAT). I also felt like a fool for using the excuse of having a comfortable setup on chrome and it being hard to change. Pffftt! So dumb. I have made it a goal to move all my saved passwords to Brave this weekend and then use it exclusively. I mean, just today, over about an hour of using Brave I have accumulated $0.09 usd in BAT tokens.
Next there is Presearch <--(referral link), the decentralized search engine.
Presearch is a search engine based on blockchain technology. The project describes itself as "an open, decentralized search engine that rewards community members with Presearch Tokens for their usage, contribution to, and promotion of the platform.
I'm telling you, if you want to earn free tokens just by doing something you likely already do many times a day then use that referral link and start earning PRE tokens now.
So many of the start-ups that opened shop during the crazy crypto bull-run in 2017 are gone due to them just being scams, or due to the bear market that has seen so many tokens shit the bed (Dentacoin anyone, anyone?) but Presearch is still going strong. In fact they just recently released their Dsearch search engine and have been giving 2x tokens for just for setting this as a default search engine on your device.
These are just two of the ways to earn some free crypto that I am using, Imagine there are many more and if you have one you want to share then feel free to drop it in a reply to this post.

I'm starting to think that Uncle Sam will want to tax this too, I don't know what to do this year!

Heard of this new Browser but never gave it a try, I may give it a shot but my computer is too old and still on windows 7 and it may get a CPU attack and croak.

I think it is based on the chrome code so all the virus fighting programs work the same. I don't actually know this though. #goodluck

It is built on Chromium so virtually all Chrome extensions work on Brave as well. I've been using it off and on for several months now and if you like Chrome you'll love Brave!
Posted via Steemleo
Yeah, I have noticed it functions the same as Chrome. Thanks @macemasta

I am just so happy for you @summertooth!!! Keep going, my friend! The good times are coming!
Have a wonderful evening, and take care 🥰🌺🤙

Thanks Saver. It does seem like happy days are here again in the crypto space.

Sorry, I've seen a lot of the tag that says "hive-" and many random numbers. Is it a new community or dapp?
Those are community tags @joseda32.

I just started getting the BAT tokens about a week ago. I figure I'm just doing my normal computer work in the evening, and getting BAT tokens is just Icing on the cake!!
I also set this up with my Ledger Nano S this is will be my first monthly payout, hopefully it goes directly into my Ledger wallet (MEW).
I read somewhere that the third party wallet that is available on Brave charges a withdraw fee!
Payout is Feb. 5 we will see @summertooth.....🤔
Awesome! I was poking around and saw that Brave supports the Ledger, I am going to have to dig mine out and have a look-see. Have a good weekend @silvertop.

I hope you have updated you Ledger @summertooth... When I updated mine it was the biggest pain, they now warn you that some people have had their Ledger wiped, and you need to do a restore!
All good...It just took a while to do the update, and then import the ETH wallet (mew) public key to Brave...🙄🤔
Deep breath .......
Oof
(deep breath in......aaaaannnnddddd exhaaaaaaaaaaaaalllle)
Ok @silvertop, I did updated one of my Nano S but I actually have three! I bought two more (with BTC profits) to fill with coins for my two oldest kids so I need to dig those out and update them. :/
Sounds like I have a weekend of computer work ahead but it will be worth the time once we all are driving Lambos around.
Posted via Steemleo
Absolutely my friend!!! I’m on the same page I have two!!🤗
Enjoy your “ computer “ time!!😊
I got it done @silvetop!!!! Updated the firmware on all three devices and all is well. Now just gotta grab some popcorn for the crypto-trip to the MOON!!!!
:)

Excellent my friend!!🤗
One more dip.....😁
Hey @summertooth!
I would agree, earning BAT is one of the easiest ways to earn free crypto... I've been using Brave as my primary browser for several months now and currently have earned just over $23.00 dollars (over 100 BAT)!
I've never heard of or tried Presearch. I will definitely be checking that out. Hey, not a bad domain... presearch.org! :)
On my list, I would add Tezos. I've been earning Tez just by staking it and it's SO easy! You don't have to do anything! Just set it and forget it!
Anyway, hope you are well! ✌️
Hey @plaid! I will look into Tezos. Didn't they have some kind of leadership drama a year or two ago? I love the staking coins with NEO being my favorite. Nice to hear from you man, hope you and @mrsplaid are well.
Oh and I just remembered, did you see the news about Voice not actually being on EOS?
https://steemit.com/voice/@edicted/lol-voice-isn-t-going-to-be-on-eos
WTF is going on with EOS!? I can't wait until it hits $6 so I can dump mine, no longer a fan.
Posted via Steemleo
We're good, thanks for asking! Yes... to put it lightly, the Tezos Foundation had a rocky start! At this point in time, they've come a long ways though and have a top 20 crypto (15th right now) in market cap, are available on coinbase, and have just recently gotten the attention of a few large financial organizations.
I really haven't been following EOS but I'll definitely check that out, sounds crazy! I've never been a fan of EOS and don't own any. I do however find block.one and the voice project to be extremely interesting though. They've got the money (and a killer domain 😎) to compete with the big social networks... time will tell if they actually can pull it off!
Sweet man, thanks for the tip about Tezos. I just earned 12 XTZ on coinbase and staked them there too. MFing MOONLAMBO!!!
