I just read https://darthcoin.substack.com/p/21-bitcoin-orange-pills-for-nocoiners by DarthCoin. Very systematic and logical - his way is the straightforward method to immerse oneself in the BTC mentality and spirit.

But what if people are sceptical and lazy and don’t want to read “The Bitcoin Standard”? They have been indoctrinated that BTC is a scam and find it hard to accept other points of view. In this case, perhaps an unconventional method might work better.

One of my earliest ways to earn sats was using the Cointiply faucet. Actually, I still use it to this day. But I don’t fancy this would be an effective way to learn about Bitcoin since it’s just clicking of ads and doing of surveys.

Phase 1 - Earn sats by reading up about BTC and attempting quizzes. Yzer, Simple Bitcoin and Bitcoin Magazine are three apps that award sats.

Phase 2 - Withdraw these sats to a Lightning Wallet. I know Muun isn’t the best wallet out there but it is frictionless and easy to grasp for beginners. What’s more, it swaps BTC for sats and vice versa.

Phase 3 - Just using educational apps isn’t gonna get you very far, so now that you taste success by seeing sats in your Muun wallet, it’s time to explore more. Heyapollo is a good start since it lists many BTC-related products and services. You can sieve out a list of BTC-related platforms to try them out and broaden your horizons. Best of all, you earn 200 sats for every review you submit to Heyapollo.

Phase 4 - Besides reading, it’s time to incorporate other processes into your life that will help you earn sats. Fountain app rewards you with sats for listening to podcasts. sMiles app gives you sats for your steps (if you don’t mind selling your location data, that is)

Phase 5 - After you feel more comfortable in the BTC space, you can venture out to Stacker News. It is a place where developers congregate to discuss their BTC projects, so you can easily feel small there. But it is the most updated source of BTC news because it is where the horse’s mouth is.

Phase 6 - You save enough sats to either pay a merchant directly or get a gift card from Amazon or Bitrefill. Congratulations. You have learnt how to live without fiat.

Phase 7 - It’s time you deploy your fiat into buying sats. Remember to try to use non-KYC marketplaces like RoboSats and Bisq. It’s also probably the time for you to get a cold wallet. Remember: not your keys, not your coins

Have fun in your journey!
