Each client of the platform received at least $ 1,500, and some received a much larger reward. Its size depended on how long ago traders provided liquidity to the platform. One of the users received $ 25 million, three more – from $ 3 million to $ 3.35 million. 37 traders brought 100-700 thousand coins to their wallets in the amount of $ 250 thousand to $ 1.75 million. 190 people took a reward of $ 25 thousand. – $ 250 thousand

Steemit blockchain blog users earn STEEM tokens, Steem Power and Steem backed dollars in a ratio of 50% to 25% and 25%. The amount depends on the number of post views, likes and comments. Steem Power cannot be sold – it is an analogue of stocks that allows you to receive passive income.
You can also receive cryptocurrency for free by watching ads. For example, the Brave browser has such a function. Often, services that pay tokens for viewing advertising content offer users not only to watch videos, but also to perform a number of simple tasks: read letters, surf, enter captchas. Each platform has its own withdrawal limits. Usually at least 10,000 satoshi, it will be difficult for a beginner to earn such an amount quickly.
You can also receive cryptocurrency while completing training programs. In December 2018, the American cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase launched the Earn program. Its users receive $ 1-2 in cryptocurrency for watching videos and solving tests. After completing all tasks, you can collect a small portfolio of different tokens worth over $ 109.
