Tips - busking for money nowadays

in #undefined5 years ago

Hi,

The Age of Digitalization took over payments around the world

When I see street performances, which are worth my attention I usually drop some change. The problem begins, when you do not use any physical money. Here I prepared some smart ideas how to increase your potential income, while you make some noise.

CRYPTOCURRENCIES

*1. Bitcoin Lightning network ( WALLET OF SATOSHI)
Considering the payment fees on main chain of Bitcoin, it would be unprofitable to collect value in that way, because the fees could eat most of your "cake". I find out the easiest wallet(using LN node) ever made so far, just install it and basically that is it. After that, simply:

print out QR code directing to your wallet address.

*2. Multi-crypto Wallet - TRUST Wallet

This one is just perfect for variety of projects available on the market. It is also integrated with Binance Exchange platform, so you will easily change all grants for your favorite coin. It also accept ERC-20. Analyzing today's trends, we can expect a wave of personal tokens flooding our wallets, so be prepared for that occasion, accepting Ethereum payments. Basic idea is the same what Bitcoin LN gives us, simply:

Print out QR code of any token, which you want to accept

ATTENTION
PLEASE ALWAYS HIGHLIGHT WHICH QR CODE BELONGS TO WHICH CRYPTOCURRENCY, MISTAKES CAUSE LOSING MONEY PERMAMENTLY.

TRADITIONAL CURRENCIES

*1. Revolut
This idea brings some troubles on board, because you are forced to keep searching other Revolut'ians using the feature "find nearby", which may be a battery consuming. Considering Revolut adoption in the developing countries it may gives you an advantage in another payment method. If you basking in mostly touristic places, not busy undergrounds, you could make an ad which informs about Revolut option.

*2. Paypal
Sending some tips by Paypal is not the most convenient method, because you have log into the account, choosing the payment method, typing the person e-mail, etc. In the era of super-laziness it may be just too much for your audience. But it always an option, which you should consider.

SUPER-HYPER-MEGA-ULTRA-META IDEA OF DIRECTING AUDIENCE TO DIGITAL TIPPING METHOD.

Did you ever see your favorite artists linking you to website, where you can choose any music streaming service to check their new releases?

YES!

Why not to do the same?
Prepare one ad with QR code, which directs to website, where they can chose the most convenient option. I did not find out any ready-to-use service yet, but feel free to use https://wix.com/ to create the simplest website for free.
