Earning sats for the first time is a magical experience and NewsBTC is here to guide you through it. The Lightning Network gave bitcoin real micro-transactions with extremely low fees. That opened up new avenues for the bitcoin network to expand through, avenues that the world is just beginning to explore. In the following text, we will present five projects that pay their users or allows them to get tips from the community. In sats, using the Lightning Network. Unlike most altcoins, bitcoin is truly scarce, has a hard total cap, and wasn’t pre-mined. The rewards that the following projects offer are low compared to million-dollar NFT collections and untenable 20% yields. However, you will earn real bitcoin by exploiting your hobbies. Cross your fingers, let’s hope this first guide has something for you. Related Reading: Lightning Speed: Open-Source Bitcoin Banks’ Fee Structures For Inbound Liquidity Before advancing, though, let’s quote Stacker News’ FAQ for a definition of sats AKA satoshis. “Sats are the smallest denomination of Bitcoin. Just like there are 100 pennies in 1 dollar, there are 100,000,000 sats in 1 Bitcoin.” 1.- Earn Sats Playing Games With Thndr Go to Thndr, download and play classic games, like Snake, or new and original ones like Turbo84 or Bitcoin Bounce. The company can’t give you sats directly because of Android App store’s restrictions. You can earn them, though. “Each ticket you collect is an entry into the daily prize draw. The more tickets that you collect, the more chances you have to win the bitcoin jackpot.” It certainly beats playing retro video games and NOT getting paid for it. Thndr ? https://www.thndr.games/ 2.- Get Tips For Your Pictures With Starbackr Publish your pictures and videos and get rewarded by the community on Starbackr. Tips in sats might not be the ideal way to support creators, but then again, maybe they are. Let’s experiment and see what the market says. And speaking about experiments, it seems like this service is just the first stage and not Starbackr’s final form. The company’s About Us says: “We build the platform of choice for digital content creators with instant payments, low friction, and free of moral censorship. Building on the Bitcoin Lightning network allows us to deliver a content monetization platform that is dramatically less expensive, faster, and more creator-friendly.” So, don’t lose faith if you’re not a photographer. We might hear about new services from Starbackr again in the not-so-distant future.

The way it accomplishes this is the fundamental difference between the two sites. “Rather than collecting “upvotes” that are not redeemable or transferable on Reddit or Hacker News, Stacker News users earn sats that can immediately be spent anywhere,” their FAQ says. Each upvote or comment that your content gets rewards you with 1 sat minimum. Publishing is not free, though, it also costs 1 sat. This is one of the most evolved projects on the list, so there’s an economy around it and the team has developed new functionalities. For example, you can pay to boost your content and users can boost their upvote by rewarding more sats. Stacker News –> https://stacker.news/ 4.- Cut Clips From Your Favorite Podcasts In Fountain Fountain is a Podcasting 2.0-enabled app that distinguished itself from the crowd by allowing users to earn sats. You can listen to sponsored content and advertisement. Alternatively, you can comment or cut clips from your favorite podcast. If users like those comments or clips, you get a cut. Plus, the satisfaction of aiding in the promotion of your favorite podcast. Mind you, another possibility that Fountain and similar apps provide is that you can produce a podcast and get rewarded by the community under the Value-for-Value model. The barrier of entry is much higher, sure, but podcasting might be your calling. Fountain ? https://www.fountain.fm/ 5.- Trade Derivatives In Sats Through LN Markets If technical analysis is your forte and fundamental analysis excites you, LN Markets offers an easy way to play the markets. “Trading is done directly from any Lightning wallet and enables super fast access to derivatives markets. Open a position by making a Lightning transaction, close the position and receive the money directly in your wallet,” their FAQ clarifies. Open a trading position only if you know what you’re doing, though. At least watch a few NewsBTC Daily technical analysis episodes to kickstart your learning process. Or use LN Markets in testnet, which is also possible. Whatever you do, remember that playing the markets comes with inherent risk and that even the most experienced traders suffer devastating losses. Don’t use money that you can’t afford to lose. LN Markets ? https://lnmarkets.com/ Related Reading: Lightning Speed: Branding Opportunities On The Lightning Network, A How-To Guide Before closing, some of these services assume that you already have a Lightning Network-specific wallet. Go and learn how to set one up before interacting with them. This closes NewsBTC’s first guide to making money through the Lightning Network.

On-chain data shows Bitcoin futures open interest has jumped up more than $1.5 billion in just a few hours as the crypto’s price breaks past $44k again. Bitcoin Futures Open Interest Adds More Than $1.5 Billion Within A Few Hours As pointed out by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post, the BTC open interest has shot up over the past day as the coin’s price has observed a surge. The “open interest” is an indicator that measures the total amount of Bitcoin futures contracts currently open on all derivatives exchanges. When the value of this metric is rising, it means more futures positions are opening up on exchanges. This leads to higher leverage in the market, and can result in more volatility. On the other hand, the open interest’s value going down suggests investors are closing up their positions as they pull out of the market. As leverage lowers during this trend, it can lead to lesser volatility in the price of Bitcoin. Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin open interest over the past month: Looks like the value of the indicator has surged up over the past day | Source: CryptoQuant As you can see in the above graph, the BTC open interest observed a sharp rise within the last 24 hours as the coin’s price enjoyed an uptrend.

If similar trend follows this time as well, the current uplifted value of the coin may not last long before a retrace is seen. Though, there is a chance that things go differently this time. The increase in the Bitcoin open interest is much sharper than the other instances. BTC Price Yesterday, Bitcoin’s price broke past $44k for the first time since start of March. So far, the coin has maintained above this level as at the time of writing, it floats around $44.6k, up 10% in the last seven days. Over the past month, the crypto has gained 15% in value.
