✨ Wallet Wednesday
the easiest task we ever run
GM everyone. This is 2036, the crypto newsletter that pays you.
Today, we've got Silk Sonic in the background as we dive into our favorite day of the week:
Wallet Wednesday.
Oh, we're feeling silky.

The concept of Wallet Wednesday is simple:
You send us your BTC address. You enter a raffle to win $15 in BTC.
And that's it.
It's our way of incentivizing you to join the crypto revolution.
We're like Arnold if he gave you candy money for hitting the gym and feeling the pump.

Now, some of you already have BTC wallets. That's cool. Respect.
But some of you are starting from scratch. You haven't made the first move yet. You're nervous to lose your money or maybe just need a little push to get you over the starting line.
You've come to the right place.
It takes a little time to go from first-time bitcoiner to total Web 3 degen. But don't worry, you'll get there eventually.
To help you choose a wallet, we turned to those people on Twitter who post cryptically clever Tweets about block sizes and TPS - and this is what we found:
Best hardware wallet with offline security backup: Ledger combined with Cryptotag
Best wallet for simplicity and security: Coinbase
Best wallet for desktop: Electrum
Best wallet for Android: Samourai
Best wallet for iPhone: Blockstream Green
Best web wallet: BitGo
Best wallet if you're a total privacy nerd: Joinmarket (slightly complicated)
Best wallet if you're a total security nerd (yeah, gotta pick your battles!): Casa

✅ Task: earn $15 in BTC for creating a bitcoin wallet
Which wallet you pick is irrelevant.
Any of them will work.
And if you already have one, more power to you. You are allowed to submit that as well.
All you have to do is the following:
Step #1: create a bitcoin wallet if you don't already have one (or maybe get a better one!)
Step #2: fill in this form with your wallet address:
We'll pick two submissions at random and send them $15 each.
And that's it for today ladies and gentlemen.
Tomorrow we'll give you a magic tool to feel like the smartest person in the room when smart contracts are brought up.
Wingardium leviosa-style.
See you then,
Alex.
P.S.: If you also want to feel like a love train today, then this is for you
