Here is something interesting from the Satoshi Nakamoto Institute in the form of a list with popular persons who are also Bitcoin Skeptics talking publicly about why Bitcoin will fail or has no future from as early as April 2011. Now what would’ve happened if thee people started buying just $1 USD worth of Bitcoin every day since the day that they made their bold claims against the crypto currency? For instance Peter Schiff could have invested just $3210 USD and had 100 BTC that could now be worth a bit shy of $700K USD. Of course much more recent skeptics who have been speculating on the AI Doge token price like Steven Mnuchin and Tendayi Kapfidze could have actually lost some dollars if they did that. It is an interesting information to check. You can of course do some estimation what could’ve you accumulated in BTC and what their value could be now if you started doing just that back in 2011.

There is one more incentive for anyone willing to switch their CPU/GPU mining hardware from crypto mining to helping the Folding@Home in their fight against COVID-19 coming from the Crypto-Games Team who are giving away 0.5 BTC to join their Folding@Home team. In order to be able to participate in this incentive you need to use the following team number in your Folding@Home client – 247983 in order for your stats to be tracked.

Starting right now and until the end of April or until they run out of rewards, there will be a team competition for most Credits completed within the Folding@home team. The prize pool is 0.50 BTC for this event, all prizes will be dealt via the tipping feature on the Crypto.Games website, so if you do not have an account yet, you would need to sign up for one. You need to post your F@H username and CG username in a dedicated thread on the Bitcointalk forum or in Crypto.Games Discord server in order to be assigned to one of three squads, then for every 100k credits you complete while folding, you will get 0.0001 BTC or an altcoin equivalent.

The maximum reward for one user is at 0.01 BTC, which can be reached with 10 Million credits accumulated in F@H, though continuing after that will still contribute to your group’s total. In addition to the individual rewards, you and your squad will compete against the other groups for the most combined Credits. The first placed squad gets 0.06 BTC, the second gets 0.03 BTC, and the last gets 0.01 BTC. Rewards are distributed evenly for each and every member of the group, assuming they did complete 5 or more Work Units. Furthermore 0.05 BTC will be rewarded with lottery tickets to users that participate, but do not have a lot of computing power.

Apart from donating your computing power for free, or taking part in this incentive, you can also earn CureCoin (CURE) as well as earn Banano (BAN). So there you have multiple options to both help with the coronavirus fight and at the same time also earn some crypto in order to at least cover some part of the electricity costs of your mining hardware… or if you just need some extra incentive.

RollerCoin is a free virtual Bitcoin mining game where you play to earn real Bitcoins and altcoins. It takes the concept of Bitcoin mining, but instead of the sophisticated Blockchain and processing algorithms, it lets you test your skills, complete missions, undertake tasks, and play games to earn real Bitcoins. Not only BTC, you can also virtually mine and earn real DogeCoin (DOGE) as well as real Ethereum (ETH) coins, have in mind that even though you can mine DOGE and ETH, you can currently only withdraw real BTC coins earned inside the game. You can try to Build and develop your own mining data center with custom virtual mining hardware, make upgrades and tweaks to boost your mining power with no real-world set-up and no hassle – just sign up, log in, customize your character, and you’re ready to start playing and earning real crypto coins with this game.

This free online game is still being developed and it is even already using its own token called RollerToken (RLT) as a center of the in-game economy and earning model. You start by playing different quick and fun games – Coinclick, Token Blaster, Flappy Rocket, Cryptonoid, Coin-Match, Crypto Hamster, 2048 Coins and Coin-Flip get you extra temporary hashpower to increase your mining capacity and earn more real BTC, DOGE or ETH coins. You can configure and switch how much of the available hashpower is dedicated to mining each of the supported crypto coins, you can put it all to Bitcoin, or split it, so you also mine DOGE and ETH, a great option if you are interested in making money. Once you have mined some coins (or if you deposit some) you can also decide to purchase some actual in-game mining hardware, racks for the miners, then get more rooms for hosting some additional miners as the next step in actually growing your mining operation and expanding the mining hashrate and earning more when each block is mined.
