Intro

I have been reading this topic recently and It came to my attention that there isn't a thread which shows passive crypto investment opportunities together so I decided to create one. I've seen tsaroz's thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5247587.0) but it has't been updated for a long time.

If you don't know what "passive income" means, let me explain it to you first.

Passive Income means making your money work for you. It is the only way to make money while you are sleeping. You provide the capital and other people bust their asses off for you. It is the higher level of living. You only manage your investments and collect the income they produce. You may spend them or reinvest them to get higher returns in the future, that's up to you. (Reinvest if you want to get a snowballing effect)

Financial Independence, Retire Early

The idea of living off of passive income (FIRE, Financial Independence, Retire Early) is not new and it is very popular especially among the stock investors and they have many communities where they share their ideas and tips.

Here are some of those communities if you are interested:

r/FIREUK
r/Fire
r/financialindependence

Obviously these are not the only sources and I am pretty sure there are better and bigger communities out there but I am giving these links just to give you a head start so you can have a basic understanding of what's going on here.

Buying dividend stocks is a great way to build passive income but it is not the only way. The other way is to buy real estate and collecting rent but it is not really passive (but very close) because you have to repair/fix the property and sometimes tenants just don't pay. The other option is collecting interest on your bonds and cash deposits but these are no good in an inflationary environment where the interest rates are always below the inflation and we have always been in an inflationary environment since I don't know when. (since the Great Depression maybe?)

That's why we almost always want to invest in real assets instead of bonds where the underlying asset is FIAT. (unless they offer better rates than the inflation)

Now we've made these things clear let's move on to the real stuff. Otherwise I could write a book on dividends and stocks in this post which nobody here is interested probably. Here I want to share a list of the casinos and the exchanges where you can make crypto (sometimes FIAT) passively. It is impossible to make a list of every opportunity for every altcoin so I'll be focusing mostly on BTC, USDT, and LTC. I am also not going to mention any fixed FIAT returns that's below 4% which is the minimum returns you should be aiming for for any of your cash producing assets. (FIRE rule #1)

Glossary:

Fixed: Means you always get the same percentage for whatever amount you invest.
Variable: Means you are partnering with the casino's bankroll. You might suffer some losses for a while if a whale wins big.

Ratings:

Very High: Best reputation. Your chances of getting scammed are very low. Probably in the business for 10 years which deserves an award of its own.
High: You will likely not get scammed but there are few quirks which irk me.
Neutral: There are mixed reports or KYC is a problem or not as old as the others.
Low: Bad reputation. High risk.
Very Low: Stay away.


If there are multiple unsolved&legit scam accusations against any of the casinos I listed, I will first reduce the respective casino's (or the exchange's) rating by 1 or 2 steps. If the accusations resolve in the accuser's favor, I will delete the casino from my list.

I also visited every casino I mentioned in my list and I've seen them still offering investment options so I naturally think they are still in the business. If you have a proof showing otherwise, let me know.

These are the opportunities I could find lately. If you know any others, let me know so I can update this topic.

#2- 04/12/2024: Added minimum investment amount requirement info.
#3- 04/19/2024: Revised Binance's type of return to "variable" as the rate they offer depends on market conditions.

#5- 04/23/2024: Big update, theymos killed mixer links but this post still lives on at https://www.passivecryptoin.com/, away from theymos' wrath :)
#6- 05/05/2024: Emergency update. Freebitcoin is experiencing an attack. Don't make any investments till the situation gets resolved. Revised website rating from "very high" to "low" temporarily.
#7- 05/19/2024: Freebitco.in's rating is revised from "low" to "neutral". The hacker seems to be gone but no explanation has been given by the maintainer of the website.

Since theymos broke my post after the recent updates about m-xers (It is not allowed to link to jamemba anymore), I decided to make this post a web app and created passivecryptoin.com.  
Maybe people will find the info there useful as they did here so I will continue to update this website as other opportunities become available.
I'll leave this topic open so the discussion can continue but new updates will be available on the website from now on because I don't want to get banned for providing links or any pics to jamambo.
I wanted to add some back-end capabilities too but I fucked it up somewhere in the code and it didn't work as I planned so... static is what we got now :p

I was expecting to see something about starting a real world business like a laundry or a vending machine which can be run with little or no direct effort on your part.

My big question will be if the investment is locked in dollar value or the crypto asset value? Bitcoin can rise beyond their annual return offered, so why should I keep my money there?

Your 1 btc will still be 1 btc 1 year later. If you invest in a company that pays 4% annually, you’ll have 1.04 btc a year later.

Your btc won’t multiply itself sitting there. Get them sats to work.

This is very interesting as it will serve as guide to some people who were already in such regard and needs something to put them on a particular financial lane on establishment, but there could have been other aspect financial the physical financial advisory guides, other assets of investment and means to which one can still generate a passive income from aside the listed gambling and exchanges businesses an organizations, when we have the means to begin from somewhere, we can start by making diversification, in which we are not going to depend or rely only on a single guide in this regard, instead have two or more advisory to help us achieve to the maximum target we may aimed at.

Your list is mainly for casinos, and only two exceptions for Binance and Jambler. I don't know about other mixers or any middle-men between customers and mixers like Jambler but if you include Binance in the list, why you ignored other centralized exchanges.

I didn't check their yield but they certainly have similar products like Binance. Would you mind sharing why only Binance is included in the list?

This thread is a good information but in the past, Pmalek made a thread about faucets on casinos (I think it is helpful for gamblers).

I am considering adding Kucoin actually ( I see their offer for USDT is around 7%, Btc 3% and eth 3.75% which are pretty good but not exceptionally good) and tbh I don't know any other reputable exchange that offers staking with good rates. Would you share the others you know so I could take a look?

Even then, the exchanges don't really pay well for the established crypto currencies. (To me, they are Btc, Doge, Ltc, Xmr, Eth) They pay well for your USDT or other stable coins usually but I didn't want to focus a lot on the stable coins unless the rate is good to the point which I can't ignore anymore. (as I explained in the OP, if the rate for USDT is more than the inflation it is worth taking a look)

That's the case with Binance/USDT. They usually offer 10% or more for USDT which you won't find on any bank or (not sure) exchange probably.

The thread is still in its early phase I might make a lot of changes.

I don't know details, it's just my thinking. I don't care about it because of risk.

Reminder: do not keep your money in online accounts

Anyway, you are making a good thread but people must know about risk too.

True, I should mention it in my disclaimer.

I think you left out one very important piece of information, which is the minimum investment amount. You stated for freebitco.in where 0.0003 is the minimum, but for example, you did not state that for Jambler the minimum for investment is 0.04BTC
This is probably important information for those who do not want to risk a large amount of money.

The time of crypto casino faucets is long gone I think. I haven't checked my own thread in a long time, but I don't think anything has changed for the better. Some of the casinos might have even dropped their faucets or decreased the possible rewards. What you can hope for is a few cents. One exception is those casinos who have lucky wheels that you can spin and perhaps win a significant amount if you are lucky.

Necessary changes have been made. I couldn't find any info on some casinos' website about any min. deposit req. (mintdice, just-dice and bustabit) They probably don't have any req. However I know that blackjack.fun and binance have no min deposit req as I tested both.

update: mintdice has no min. inv. requirement.

I know that many casinos have disabled or limited the faucet to only "loyal" users. There were abuses like putting faucet rewards on high odds, so rarely but wins did happen. However, I would not count the faucet as any kind of income, certainly not passive because it requires some work.

Currently, I also have an investment in blackjack.fun, it is very simple, even reinvesting the profit.
The good thing, although it is unclear to me, is that the invested funds are not at risk, because they are not active in the casino pool.

You forgot to mention, "at least thats what they claim". 
All investments typically come with some level of risk.  If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.  I am not saying this is the case with blackjack.fun investments, but we can never be sure.

By the way, good topic @mindrust!

These are actually some good crypto investment opportunities that allow one to earn passive income. I believe out of those Jambler and Binance are the best ones.

I have been using Binance personally and I can say that it's a quite good exchange for the ones who want to earn passive income.

I think the best level of passive income may come when sometimes stake's the coins in their own personal wallets instead of custodial wallets.

I am sure people have abused faucets in various ways to try and withdraw the money that comes from them, but what you just described isn't one in my opinion. To me, that sounds more like the casinos are trying to minimize that players can successfully win a high enough amount they could eventually withdraw. If I claimed some coins from a faucet, why shouldn't I be allowed to wager them any way I want, including betting the money on any odds I am comfortable with? Just get rid of it altogether if you are tying it to conditions that stop making sense.

My investments on bustabit and former MoneyPot have been very much positive. Moneypot was able to turn 1BTC to 1.04 BTC in a month or so and BAB investment is ongoing with a projected interest rate of ~20% per annum as per my calculations. Short term ups and down are common but the overall graph is going upwards.

However my experience with bitvest has been poor and I seem to lose all the earned money to the commission there so I decided to pull out after a couple of months. Freebitcoin is a fixed daily interest and is the most stable of all these four.
I am not sure why you wrote "sea shells" instead of clams when addressing Just-dice's Notes though.
I miss the old crypto-games investment scheme, it was giving me 50% in a year.

I appreciate the info you provided. I am thinking of creating a fund for myself and invest in 4-5 of these projects. (already have some small amounts in 3 of them: binance, blackjack.fun and freebitco.in) Just like how people were doing in the good old days

Because... they are sea shells.  



I saw the market cap of CLAM and it is only $5 million and that somehow doesn't look like something people would tie their money to for a long time. However It looks like it has been finally stabilized after getting dumped hugely since 2021.

Your list is biased.

I don't believe Blackjack.fun and Jambler worth to get high and very high ratings, although you've stated "My rating" which is subjective. I would give them neutral instead.

I agree Freebitco.in deserve to get very high, they're an OG and they've complied with regulations, even though I also don't like regulations, but when it comes to centralized sites, you need to be regulated. I would say Binance deserve to get high ratings though.

Jambler has been working for 6 years... but that's not the problem.

The problem is that you have to be lucky to be included in the number of investors, since there are many more applications than there is a need for. And those who once managed to become an investor hold on to their places, so it’s difficult for new users to get a slot.
