Bitcoin Forum

I have been thinking about making money in cryptocurrency, but I'm hesitant to try because I don't want to get scammed i.e. didn't get any rewards for the effort I spent. I'm really curious with the current hype in 2024 and how much you've make from it? I know that scam is inevitable in altcoins, so I might be looking to earn with less risk.

What I know the current hypes in 2024 are:
1. Testnet airdrop
2. Meme coins

What about NFT or ordinals? but I think it's really risky because it's non fungible and you can't make sure people will buy your token.
What about P2E games? I haven't hear it anymore.

Probably I missed other hypes or if you know the another way of making money, feel free to comment. ;)

$600 bucks from doing hydro tesnet and it's only one example. $200 from mining Babylon project NFT, which is free, caused by all of the tasks related to the testnet.

I participated in the meme token farm and got around 120 bucks by doing some simple tasks.


It's not as risky as when you randomly bought ico. In ordinal, what you need is only bitcoin as your minting fee.

Participated in the raffle is free
Getting whitelisted is free

Have you ever known about trac? I minted around 10k token for less than $50 as minted fees and it sold it for 50k https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/trac/

I also got Runestone, which is worth 0,05 BTC now.

The key is consistency.

Not really profitable.

The hype has not yet ended and you are not late to participating in the incentivised testnet, retroactive and many more.

Well if you have a look since a decade Airdrops are 50/50 in my point of View. Now the trend has been changed and most of them are focusing on Cloud Mining where they are paid a Descent money. It is now feasible to mine cryptocurrencies utilizing cloud computing resources.

Yes Play-to-earn games have gained considerable attention as they provide gamers with a chance to generate real income. Their popularity has significantly increased the adoption of NFTs and blockchain gaming, You can have it a try.

Ordinals have lost thier hype for now. I am not sure what will happen in the future. NFT is still going strong but the fees on Ethereum are not helping. I think AI projects will be the next trend in crypto. The advancement in AI and what Elon did will lead to new projects. If you are not aware what Elon did then let me tell you he releases code for his AI chatbot Grok (https://www.google.com/amp/s/abcnews.go.com/amp/Business/elon-musk-releases-code-ai-chatbot-matters/story%3fid=108239418). This incident will open doors to many crypto projects that were planning to use AI as an utility.

In my opinion, NFTs aren’t that great anymore. I mean from the first time they were launched I knew it was all hype and it wouldn’t last long. Now you barely hear about them anymore. So I don’t think selling NFTs would bring you lots of income anymore. Airdrops are not guaranteed money.

I do find projects that are just newly launched and are looking for people to make reviews. They usually pay in btc or other stable coins so it’s good. There are also a lot of contests here in the forum with the prize being bitcoin or other coins.

So far, the way to make money from crypto is still the same as before. However, currently there are more scammers looking for prey than genuine projects that are truly focused on development. Trading, Airdrop, Bounty, selling skills, and others. This is still quite worth exploring in search of money or crypto. It's just that it was done patiently. unlike before, there are still a lot of legit projects. that can be seen when we do the airdrop.

This is the hype yes but of course you can still make crypto using the traditional way like trading, holding, investing and also gambling.

Every option have their own level of risk, so it's good to understand what risk you can afford to take since you cannot chase everything.

Airdrops seems the best option if you don't want to lose that much aside from the small transaction fees and also your effort to do the task.

2024 seems to be a good opportunity to maximize cryptomarket, better to study every option available for you to make profit.

For what I read, it does not seem as if you are looking for ways to earn but for ways to earn a lot of money during 2024, and if my guess is correct I can only advise you to drop the idea.

Whenever the bull market appears, we get a lot of people that are not interested on the market itself and the only thing they want is to obtain the fantastic profits they have seen other people get, but how many of those people actually succeed? Almost no one, and if we know the risks are so high already then it is better to try to safest options you can find, instead of taking an unnecessary risk.

Making money from crypto I think the way is changed because now Bounty,Airdrop are useless and waste of time, how many legit project in the market, Most of the scam happen in bounty because hunters are not getting their payment end of the day, And difficult to join in test net airdrops, nowadays airdrops is not like that just you can do it within few minutes.

Ways to make money from crypto are no longer the same as before bounty airdrops worked very well. Now almost most scheme scams do not pay properly. The cryptocurrency market is an interesting and constantly evolving space that offers many opportunities for those looking to make money. While there are risks involved there are also potential rewards that are hard to ignore. I prefer bitcoin investment because it gives good profit even if you have to wait for long term.

I kind of agree with what you said that this is op, this year I noticed that it is highly hyped right now in terms of airdrops and meme coins. In airdrops, I saw potential airdrops that are free testnets that you don't have to spend money on, but you can get something for free every 8 hours, which is called Berachain (https://airdrops.io/berachain/).

Now you just have to use the protocol of berachain itself using the bera that you can get from their platform https://artio.faucet.berachain.com/ in addition to this the meme coins are usually the ones that make the noise are from Solana network, and now is not the time for meme coins via sol blockchain.

I thought the airdrop isn't worth since 2018 but after reading your reply it seems still there is chance to make some money but it could be difficult to find actual airdrops from scrutinizing all the available airdrops. Well this is the only way if we don't want to risk our money with new coins and still interested in tasks to get decent chunk of them.

Yes, although there are some good airdrops and bounties but it is very important to note that not all airdrops are legit and the same goes for non-paying bounties. And some airdrops may be scams designed to steal your personal information or cryptocurrency and this can happen. So most importantly, always do your own research and verify the authenticity of the project before participating in an airdrop so that you can get a legitimate airdrop. And the best way to make money this year, last year and next year is to invest and trade and participate in signature campaigns and this is very low risk.

If you are thinking of making money from cryptocurrency then you need to go ahead with that effort. Even those who did not believe in the means of making money in cryptocurrencies have earned their belief as correct by making money from cryptocurrencies. If you move in the right direction, you can definitely make money from crypto currency.

I have earned quite a lot from cryptocurrency which has not only changed my life but also improved my family.

If you think all altcoin investment is risky then of course you can invest with ethereum and some top coins after bitcoin if you invest with top coins your risk will be reduced a lot. NFT, P2E (play2 Earn) etc are very risky I would say there is no need to go with these as all these are risky. I can also say that there is no need to go with meme coin because meme coin is also very risky. So you discard the ones that seem risky to you and proceed with the coins that seem less risky to you.

It is not as easy as you think to make free money now from the crypto space, unlike before that is is easy and worth the stress. Air drops are more of scam, and it is hard to get a real one, only if you are lucky.

I would not advice anyone to go into air drop or look for a coin to mine that rewards would be given, because you might end up wasting your time and effort. It is better that whatever you want to  e ture into, you DYOR, so that you don't get disappointed. It is better that you stay more focus on investing with your own funds, than looking for ways to get free meme coins.

Testnet airdrop is related to promises more than being a real thing. The purpose for which Testnet networks were used is testing and not in order to be equivalent to real gains or to obtain a free airdrop that will bring you a good profit. If you buy these free coins, you will most likely be scammed.

Meme coins were a hot topic in 2021 when Musk’s tweets changed their prices, but in the history of cryptocurrencies, no basket of crypto topped the lists twice, meaning that when the hype moves to new projects, old projects die, starting with mining, hardfork, ICO, and now Meme coins.

A simple thread but I'm sure google search engine gets similar visits from everyone even the youngest internet users, it's not new to make money from the internet just by joining some tasks on social media, it benefits both parties because the company can also add value from the marketing function.

I underline cyrypto curency, hunting has accelerated since this trend emerged to become a side job that is flexible to do,
with android and internet. I don't get it very often because I only play for free and rewards in general, but I'm grateful that I can add to the renovation of the house, goods etc. I consider this bonus money.

Yes, trends change sometimes it all continues to rotate, for meme coins, tesnet, daily check in and may increase telegram bot airdrops are also relatively durable and often appear until now, but I choose / analyze further before working on bots because of personal stance only. distribution is still ongoing by new projects and I think it is effective for the development of social media owned by the project.

During my participation and trading of other assets, of course, I separate the tesnet wallet and the mainet. more often participate in hunting.

I wouldn't get into ordinals as I hate them because of what they did to the network when they've caused a lot of increase to the fees. Some methods that you can also go with aside from those that you've mentioned;

• Running nodes
• Being a community manager

There are still some names operating until now but I'd avoid any P2E games nowadays, I've got a traumatic experience with big loss on them.

Testnet and meme coins will continue to be the bread and butter of many investors but P2E games are making a huge comeback after the hype slowed down last year, bounty campaigns will continue because there are still new coins and ICOs coming to promote their platform.
Of course, investing is still the main income of for investors especially now that halving is around the corner, the Cryptocurrency industry still has many ways to profit you just have to dig what interest you the most.

One way to earn money in crypto with less risk is through airdrops where you only need to complete tasks to receive tokens. An example of this is the Heroes of Mavia and Arkham airdrop. The challenge here is that we cannot determine the next project similar to them, and with the multitude of airdrops emerging, even dedicating all your time to them may not be sufficient. What's needed is diligence and patience to grind through, as it can consume all your time.

is it true that airdrops are still profitable this year? I last played airdrop almost 7 years ago. and indeed some can provide quite good income, although some are rubbish and worthless. after a lot of trash coins from airdrop I decided to stop from there. So I don't understand if airdrops can still produce results at this time

To play on meme coins certainly requires quite complicated analysis, considering that market conditions tend to be more volatile and can go up and down briefly compared to other altcoins. I think of memecoin as when we are gambling. can profit quickly, and vice versa.

I know myself, always following the trends in the system but it's quite interesting. There's 100% truth in everything stated out this season, it's our main tasks to be pushing for greater heights in the system. This current year, 2024 comes with bright future for most of the traders. I'm not relenting but keeps focusing on my main goals, ensuring I'm triggering the topping. Memecoins and Testnets Airdrops are trends throughout the market, never stepping down but ensuring my targets and techniques results in profitability.

Do you have any groups to share airdrop information, or do you just find them on Bitcointalk? I've joined some groups, but most of the airdrops they share are not profitable. Sometimes, it takes many swap fees to participate in a testnet, but nothing comes back.

Only with real risk you are making real money, bigger the risk, bigger the potential gain. You either risk using your time for nothing or investing money for nothing. And yeah, you are right, illiquidity of NFTs is problematic, but i also have gained ton of good airdrops with nfts and i am assuming that holders of ordinals would get them some point as well.

Best testnet airdrops are going to be those that are not announced beforehand, and you just have to guess them, so you will be most likely losing money in fees and playing with dexes.
But summa summarum: imho your attitude is wrong as i don't know anyone in here who didn't take ton of risks when they made ton of profits. Even those things where you don't think you are taking risks with are most likely risky, because this is cryptocurrencies we are talking about. It's just when prices are slowly growing, it's harder to remember how much they can crash.

If everything good is waiting for you to get it, then life is so simple, right? In the space we can see a lot of work that brings opportunities/risks, what I see from airdrops, bounty, testnet, retro,...

IMO, with each bull cycle, we will witness many new forms of making money. With new trends we will be exposed to different forms, but they are still based on principles from marketing.

Recently we have also witnessed the launch of many projects with huge airdrops, and also holding tokens for rewards, there are many choices and every decision is your choice and responsibility experiment with it.

NFT projects are done already, their time is over, and much more in joining airdrops.
For now, meme coins are still consistently in the hype which really gives profits to the risk-takers. It is really a good venture to choose old projects, even if it was not that hyped like meme coins still, we can assure profit during the bull season.

As the market behavior has changed, we also become adaptable to the situation and act wisely. Still, we need research and market analysis before investing because this is the only way it helps to determine if that project is worth buying or not.

To find every Airdrops from bitcointalk it's difficult, i see sometimes everyone talking only for hype project. Whatever, i also joined some telegram groups where some members sharing many airdrops but i got decent profits in two or three projects otherwise mostly was shit, you need to spend swap fees in most of the test net projects which is good or bad.

Most often people look down on simple things and look for the complex only to be disappointed on the long run. In a nut shell holding BTC and older altcoins like Ethereum, IMO, is still the best and the most safe. Though the price of Bitcoin is higher now ($63, 108.00 as at 22nd March, 2024) compared to what it is about six months ago ($26,752.00 as at 13th October, 2023), I think one can still make profit if you buy now. It is advisable to be cautious of meme tokens except for old ones like Doge coin. Meme coins mainly increase in value due to hype, and once the hype dies down, the value drops suddenly - making investors to loose. I will advise newbies to ensure you carry out detailed research before investing on meme coins as well as engaging in testnet airdrops.

Testnet airdrop is also diminishes as most of the project now requires users to do transaction in mainnet to get the rewards. Just look at stark airdrop and few other where mainnet users got more allocation and focused than testnet participants. It also justify the process as mainnet participants are using their own money which cost them expenses so giving them airdrop make sense.

Some testnets will require a costs to send transactions and pay fees. Only faucet which not require costs, but as you know faucet will only generate small bucks.


I never join the project because of project criteria.


Those NFT should have big community and can attract new user. NFT without big community can be no prospect, and no guarantee that NFT can be sold in the market.


It almost same with NFT. But P2E will need extra cost and extra time to do.

Which more profitble ?
Can not say more about this. The simple rule is, you define
 Your own goal and if you think thats profitable you can do it, otherwise no.

Airdrops that are trending nowadays aren't like traditional airdrops where you do a bunch of tasks and get a bunch of tokens for free for doing that, those are now limited, and can barely find that kind of airdrops and even if you do, they are not profitable anymore. And airdrops of the current era require you to spend money by participating in the network, making transactions, using dexes and other apps built on their ecosystem, etc.

It depends on one's luck, because first, you need to qualify for the airdrop, and then the token being airdropped should have a value that should compensate you for the fees you had spent and give you some profit on top of it, otherwise, you have just wasted your time and money.

Currently from what I have seen is mostly the airdrops, hype like the pumping of newly tokens if only you're lucky enough. I don't think cryptocurrency has another alternative rather you've not seen any at the moment. Gaming tokens can also be of help for quick money, random programs you play and earn like the giveaway, I have never participated in such before but I think people earn genuinely but not everyone cause not everyone incharge will be genuine and sometimes people involved are mostly scammers. From my opinion anything that has to do with crypto and fast money not all will serve profit.

Op since you are afraid of scam which everyone meaningful investor must afraid, you can invest in Ethereum and Solana which is risk free projects in the cryptocurrency ecosystem though there are others there too but those are legit ones. Airdrops or memecoins are the most risky projects in the ecosystem because those ones are the ones scammers use to lure people to invest and run are with money. NFT is not like before again and I will not advise anyone to deal with that token again because they are the cause of increasing the transaction fees in the bitcoin network.

Op if you are interested to invest in any altcoins invest in Ethereum, Solana and Dogecoin then the latest one is Eloncoin.

I've been away from airdrops for a long time, it turns out there's been a drastic change here. In the past, traditional airdrops were very resistant to airdrops involving the use of money to participate, but now they are required to spend money first to try out the network and so on to later get the airdrop tokens.

I think this is too risky, because as you said it could be a waste of time and money just to get a meager income.

To be as direct as possible, airdrops are not really airdrops anymore, the reason to be of airdrops was to allow a person to try the network by giving them a small amount of coins for free without any conditions attached.

But developers have realized that even if they have changed the nature of airdrops to the point of becoming unrecognizable, there are enough people out there willing to put up with their nonsense, so they do not see the point of offering their coins for free when they can charge for them.

I would say that now is not a good time to participate in test nets or bounties with missions like token swapping or similar tasks. The fees are high at the moment, and most of the projects are scams. In my opinion, the best time to engage in a test net is during a downtrend when the fees are more acceptable, so even if they scam you, it's not as significant. Currently, the best way to make money from the start is to participate in bounties involving sharing, posting missions, or buying some cheap new meme coins.

I have never earned a lot of money through airdrops. This method needs to continue to invest and facing the huge uncertainty of income.

Spending much fees for eligible airdrop some time is not worth, many retroactive airdrop change their rule few days after snaphoot after participants loss much money for purchasing fees without hold minimum required amount.
Better testnet without spending much fees and has potential when the project launching their mainnet to earn much airdrop reward allocation, have many way to earn in cryptocurrency not only airdrop but also participating in bounties and content events still worth although have many participants joining.
For airdrop make good research if spending much money or hold some coins for one or two months checking with potential profitable or get loss with more coins holding.

Though i have participated in some occasion but never that  i loved joining because it is more on not worth the  time and not worth the chances.

though there are giveaways that gives me earning in some points  but truly? the whole concept is only a time consuming but not worth the totality.

I don't like participating in airdrop project, reason been that most of those airdrop project are scam, a legit airdrop project is very rare this time due to the rate of scammers. However a friend of my introduce me to this satoshi app where I can claim free airdrop, although I made research about this app I think the app is somehow genuine, so I have been thinking if i will give it a trial, what did you think?

It is no longer new that bounty and airdrops are no longer the same way it use to be, there has a lot of non payment and postponedment of payment after days of work hence the least I could say for now is

1. Staking

2. Trading

3. Investing

And probably you should consider the one that suits you.

At least now I see fewer scam projects on this forum. Back in 2017, I remember there were around 10-20 new projects every day. Lol. Almost every project claimed they would reward millions of dollars. And I think 99.99% of the projects from that time have died by now.

If the application really pays, I think it's okay to try it. However, you also need to measure how much time you spend with income from the Satoshi application.
If it's still worth it, that's no problem, especially if it's free without having to spend money to get a small airdrop.

There are many different methods that have already been written about, but I prefer staking. I found a convenient Fairspin platform for myself and still play on it and stake their token at a high APY, thanks to which I consistently earn extra money

Hmm, that's quite interesting, I'd like to know more about the methods of finding such platforms. After all, if this platform brings in at least some money through staking, that's already good

There might still be airdrops for cheaper networks, so why can't we just do them instead? Those airdrops who constantly change their rules are unfair because it looks like their goal is to not reward their participants properly or give them only less tokens for the good quality of efforts that they have done. After all, it was still their project so they have the rights to do whatever they can. Guess all we can do is to move on and better luck next time.

Testnet airdrops are an alternative but their name says it all. They are free and the quality of tokens we can get might also be low or poor and there are also scams. I joined a lot of these in the past but I'm only disappointed.

I am currently looking into making a crypto coin for a PC-Mobile-Virtual Reality Survival Horror game I am working on

I need dedicated server so I plan to create a crypto coin proof of stake type of coin which will pay those running the servers.

I dont understand MEME coins because they are not backed by a product.

at least with the coin I eventually create, it will be backed by an actual game.

Left alternative way to earn free in cryptocurrency by joining testnet, but currently many project have difficult task and most of participants have to buy with testnet token for bridge or add in liquidity to qualify testnet airdrop. Some airdrop has change their rule at the end after many user participants and most of airdrop delay with sending reward, join an airdrop have guarantee how much reward allocation for participants and check with their road map clearly when launching mainnet coins/token until how much reward allocation for community and airdrop participants.
Today most kinds of airdrop running in telegram account, some airdrop likely as mining working but its worth have several airdrop success listing with higher price and worth for joining.

Joining the testnet to receive airdrops I think is no longer suitable at the present time. Most of the time you won't get anything, instead platforms or dapps now require us to spend money to actually use their platforms and applications. For example, recently you can hear a lot of people mentioning Restaking on Ethereum platforms (EigenLayer, or more recently Ether.fi), through which they will have the opportunity to receive airdrops from the project. Besides, there are many platforms or applications that have not yet launched tokens, such as Zksync, Matcha, Metamask... you can directly use them to become a real user, thereby having a great opportunity to receive rewards or get their airdrop in the future.
The same goes for P2E games, which also require you to spend some money to participate. Recently, there is a Pixel game where you can earn, but the amount of money earned daily is not really large like gamefi in the 2020-2021 period. Besides, you can participate in signature campaigns on this forum, the amount of money you can earn is also quite good if you have a high rank.

Every choice definitely has risks that will make you think twice, but the point is that at least trying is better than not trying, with each having their own level of risk to make a profit by earning from crypto for 2024.
get more improvements such as airdrops and bounties to increase profits but you must remember that you must have expertise in user participation to develop their projects with the level of difficulty and types of tasks carried out by participants so that we getreceive rewards.

Knowledge and skill is definitely required to earn from crypto but currently bounty airdrops in crypto are not doing very well and chances of success are very low. From this you can invest in bitcoin investment will give you very good profit. Along with Bitcoin, the top altcoins will give good returns.

i am an airdrop hunter and in 2024 i make more money from tesnet than meme coins. So far I have only earned around $50-$100 from meme coins, whereas from tesnet I can earn $300-$1000. Indeed, to get big results from meme coins you have to be patient and hold, but hold has a high risk, namely the price of meme coins obtained from the airdrop can drop drastically. while altcoins from tesnet I can immediately sell them at high prices.

To be fair chasing bounties and airdrops usually do not come to anything, it ends with you having just a few dollars and it is not even worth it. However, if we are talking about something bigger, like something such as getting paid for working in one of those places, then we could probably see that working properly, and that wouldn't be a bad idea.

I know that it is hard to get hired, but if you work for free to get something out of it at first then eventually you are going to have a good resume to show others and start to get paid. Depends on the job too, if you are a developer then you are lucky because during the bull run there will be a lot of people willing to pay others to get their coins/tokens made, it is a very important deal.

Yes. Now there are so many testnets for new project networks and those who follow also get quite generous rewards, sometimes just a few clicks can get paid up to $ 20 and that's quite decent with an easy task. I assume that's why many new projects that are launched immediately get attention and positive responses from many users.

Ihmo. I've been with some ordinals project that went skyrocket then sudden downfall to mint price after a few days, but there's like an alternative way to earn more on most NFT whitelisting as you're able to sell them on the 3rd party markets for some quick bucks.


P2E games are quite saturated, most BIG gaming companies are actually trying their best to get a % of the market share. but earning wise, depends on where you're living in the world it's not that profitable as some games like pixels can earn you on average around 1-20$ a day depends on your luck, skill levels and etc..

As compared to meme coins investment the airdrop possesses the ability to give you better reward but the value of the token you received from airdrop can also reduce therefore try to take the profit whenever you feel that now the price is good for selling.

I will choose to earn through airdrops rather than meme coins because meme coins contain the highest risk among all the ways of earning through crypto. Sometimes individuals invest hugely in meme coins and they wait more to get the highest value but that never happens as meme coins will just hype during bull season.

At the moment, in my opinion, drophunting is one of the least expensive ways to make money in crypto. Yes, unfortunately, you don't know how much, when, and whether you will get a drop. But on many projects, the costs can be as low as $40, but there is a good chance that you can make $400-500 from this $40 in n amount of time. It's not much, but you put in a minimum of effort. Also, the net test is more costly, but the drop is much bigger and a higher percentage of it is guaranteed.

There are still some scam project in the market, but very easy to identify them in the market by carry out your research to no the population of investors around the project and the team behind the project before investing, and you will not miss your plan in the future.

I have invested small money on some new projects this year, which am expecting some good  profits from the projects because they appear in a genuine way which many people have confirmed the project as a genuine project that will run for long to help their customers to earn profits.


But there are still old projects that reward their customers more than that amount, which people are still investing to continue to earn from the project.

I am earning in crypto through: airdrop, trading altcoins, staking and P2E games.
Those are my source of income in crypto this year hoping to try out other things like NFT trading in the future, not really sure if it is still profitable, but I guess it would depend on the NFT that I would choose.

there are some exchange that offers staking so better find one mate ,
but make sure that will will stake in trusted project for safer result and best one.
can you name at least one mate with better testnet for new project
because I am also interested for such so thanks in advance.

Bounties have been nonpromising and the worst of it all is airdrops and surveys. Lots of scam projects around the corner, and even if a project might be legit the focus that people put into it is limited since there is no trust again. However, out of the few picks you have mentioned. Ill choose staking and investing. I wouldn't advice anyone to trade yet until he is financially stable so that whenever he loses some money on trade he can quickly earn back that money after some few hours.

The current airdrop is different from a few years ago, which at that time was much easier, so many of the airdrops were scams. Currently, it is quite difficult because there are tasks that have to be done, but several members have said that the prizes they get are worth it, I am also quite behind on the current airdrop. In fact, it could be said that it hasn't produced anything yet, and it's not easy to get information about the ongoing airdrop, some websites that provide information like that are very limited and only open all the information to their paid members, so at the moment I'm only focusing on memecoin and that's only on Shiba Inu and dogecoin by becoming a long term holder.

Airdrop is still a good option, but you need to spend time and money, and you don't know when you will get something, and if you get it overall. The first thing you should do, it's education, and find a good community of the likeminded people!

Most airdrops are for free, though? That is what makes them very appealing to people. They don’t really need to actually invest something to get back some profit. Although of course it’s only very rare that an airdrop actually gets value later on after its launch.
In all that you do, education is the most important thing. You don’t want to dive head first without any prior knowledge especially if you are going to be with a community. Sure they can teach you but it’s still good to have some head start.

If that's what you are saying is true then it isn't worth trying, better to invest the time, brain and money into something that is actually going to give returns than just hope that we will get something from airdrops. Maybe you can only try to participate in the airdrops that's getting over hyped but still for that we still have to invest our time to find which is worth trying, so I am not sure though.

The best way to earn recently is the testnet airdrops. It pays really well one can earn like $500 and above if you can manage to perform all the tasks correctly. Think it is a much better option than memes

have you earn that mate? I mean did you get that amount from testnet?

have been hearing testnet all over the forum but i'm not sure if this is really profiting .

but knowing airdrops nowadays ? there are very few that is generously paying and  many are just
ending scam or not paying participants .

Most of the airdrops have lost their credibility or give very little return which is disappointing. In these fraudsters use only common people. You can choose the meme for your choice which can give high success in short span but the selection process has to be perfect. Although it is better not to mention name and you are free to make your own decision based on the market conditions.

It is not really "free" when you think about it. It's free in the sense that you do not spend any money on it, but it is not free because you are spending your time on it, and maybe you do not spend much on a single one, like spend an hour on it at the very most it is not a lot, probably more like 15 minutes. Let's say it is half an hour, if you do not make any money from 100 of them but make money on a single one, you just spent 50+ hours of your life on this and got paid, if you work 50+ hours on anything else, you probably would make a lot more money instead.

This is why it is not free, you are working for less than 1 dollar per hour while doing it, and they know this and do not hire workers but just say "airdrop" in return, for their own made up token that they didn't spend a dime on to create and not even pay you in dollars.

This is right. Some of the airdrops today have requirements, and you need to have a token holding for you to be eligible for Solana airdrops. You need to hold a large amount of Solana for example but the good thing is that it's easy free money. And the best way to earn passive money is to become a validator and lending on exchanges.

Until now, there are still play-to-earn games that gamers are obsessed with because there are still many other streamers promoting play-to-earn games on YouTube, Twitch, and others.
Then the other games in crypto today are quite active for me.

Now in the ordinals, you are right that their hyped period is over. That's why, always, when they attack the network, they also do a lot of damage to the bitcoin network in terms of fees.

I think investing in memecoin is one of the best ways to make money in 2024, because I think 2024 will be the year memecoin becomes popular, even though it has a very big risk, memecoin is being targeted by crypto users, both beginners and investors but I think the best coins and really worth investing in are DOGE coin and SHIBA inu,

Every coin has hype during a bullrun. During the last bullrun memecoin especially Dogecoin shows huge hype. Many have made huge profits by investing in this coin. But I think investing in memecoin is very risky. Because they can have huge pump as well as huge dump. So I would say you invest in top coins like BTC, ETH, BNB.

There are several ways to earn money from cryptocurrency. Such as Airdrop, Signature campaign, P2E games, crypto casino, bounty. I see you have already participated in a signature campaign. But I think the best way to earn money from cryptocurrency is P2E game. It is very popular now. Millions of people are working here and the amount of earning from here is very high. You can also try.

As a matter of facts airdrops are continuing to evolve.
So it might be a good opportunity to look for something out of the ordinary.

For example I am now participating in a single campaign (because it takes a lot of my time) - Prom Testnet Campaign.
Basically it's the ordinary testnet activity: you claim test $PROM from faucet, make transactions, mint NFTs, etc.
But you have to do it daily and receive points.
People who will receive a certain amount of points by the end of the Campaing will receive a role of Delegate in the DAO governance.
There is a prize pool of 1 milllion $PROM, but these tokens will be locked for network use only - they can't be traded, sold or transferred to exchanges.

So it kinda looks like an airdrop (a lot of people still call it that way) but the reward isn't the tokens, its a governance role.
The tokens only serve as the instrument that the newly appointed Delegates would use for voting and by doing so will be entitled to a % of the network profits (Delegates will receive 30%).

Why i think such unorthodox way of handling a testnet airdrop is worth to be noted:
First of all there is no risk of airdropped tokens being dumped on the market and crashing the price.
Secondly, the type of income you will receive is gonna be continuous.
And it will increase in volume if the network grows (and the number of transactions increases)

Actually this is so fresh and amusing that i'm just doing it to see it all happening with my own eyes.
But it also requires daily consistency.
Mainnet is expected to launch soon, so i will be happy to report back with the results.

I think the current hype is about the testnet airdrop. such as testnet hydro and airdrop rdat and notcoin. I didn't spend any capital and got  a profit from this project. So far I'm not really interested in NFTs

To make money you need to invest something, in this case you can invest in selected memes with low price and high position which can give high profit in short time but at the same time there is high risk. You can put shiba inu in your selection list in meme coin. Besides, the future of ETH is very good among alt coins. If your effort is just to make money then the opposite can happen because investments should always be long-term. Because investment requires patience.

There are quite a lot of ways available to get cryptocurrency this year, including participating in airdrops, trading, investing, participating in bounty campaigns, the point is we have to work actively and see the opportunities available, only the lazy can't see the opportunities, while they those who are diligent and hardworking will definitely get cryptocurrency.

The recent launch of Notcoin has revolutionalize the telegram mining bot capacity and it's seen as the next hype in crypto but I'm not really interested in it because definitely it's either going to be a shit coin or it might go down after a while because most memecoins are not able to stand for a long time and Notcoin and every other memecoins that are raving the space now that you all consider the next hype are only trying to create relevance after a while we may not hear from them anymore.

One thing you must know mate, this altcoins are not going to with stand any attack like the 51% security attack because of how vulnerable they are, so if you're investing your money in them you have to be at a very big risk of either lossing. one of the rule is that you don't hold for too long, as it would help you not to loss out.

I don't think it was the real gamers who are obsessed with them because play-to-earn games in crypto are not that great compared to the normal games in terms of graphics and gameplay. Even though normal games are not P2E, well-skill and famous people can still earn through them via live streaming in social media platforms like Twitch.

Mostly those who are obsessed with the play-to-earn games are the existing people of crypto, who are looking forward of earning more. One proof with that is they leave immediately after the value of the P2E games coin goes down. If there are games that streamers or influencers are promoting now, that would be none other than the gambling games.

For now, it is getting increasingly difficult to get free money through Testnet airdrop because the team is making it difficult to qualify and also the reward do not what the effort again and also playing Meme coins is becoming tricky game, for 1 successful memecoin, there are 100 failed ones. Tapping games are the other of the day now because of the success of Notcoin, we need to wait to see to see how the gaming clones will work
