How To Withdraw COIN?

With the COIN you earn in app you have a few options for redemption. You can redeem coin starting at 10,000 coin…that seems like a lot but I earn 2,000 Coin a week right now with both a SentinelX and Sentinel connected. You can redeem COIN for part of a Bitcoin(BTC), 1 Ethereum(ETH), or XYO($0.05153 as of 12/1/2021 5PM EST) the traded currency. Additionally, there are other redemption options like Xbox’s, iPads and other tech devices. In my opinion*(not advise)*, XYO has been gaining traction and is hopeful to grow if you redeem and hold onto that coin. You can redeem to the Coinbase Wallet app. If you do not have that or Coinbase, sign up now and link the two to be able to withdraw XYO out of the app.

An airdrop is when a cryptocurrency token, usually a new one or an up and coming token, is disturbed to a group of people through their crypto wallet addresses. This drop is usually free and typically goes to reward early adopters or supporters who used an participated in a certain activity or still hold the organizations token in their wallet.

Types Of Airdrops:

Standard Cyrpto Airdrop: In this case just about anyone that finds out about this, is eligible. Sometimes you can run into location restrictions where you cannot access the airdrop landing page due to your region or state, but that should be about it. In this case, typically a standard airdrop is done to create a buzz and use a viral effect to have more holders with the new token, talking about it.

Exclusive Crypto/NFT Airdrop: An exclusive airdrop typically goes to show appreciate for early adopters and users, that supported the platform/project, or held the token early on, when the project was just starting out. This goes to thank them as the early users where what made it possible for success. In this case yo will see where companies like ENS Domains, airdropped all of their domain holders ENS Tokens, for those who had an ENS Domain before mid November, 2021. When ENS Domains first launched, they didn’t necessarily have the means(resources, or finances) to do so and now that they are established, they are able to give back to the day ones.

Bounty Airdrops: A bounty airdrop is one of the more start forward types of airdrops. In this case, do something and be rewarded for it. Check out companies like Rabbithole who curates giving out rewards, NFT and crypto for completing tasks in the blockchain space. As an example Rabbithole had a Token Swapping quest, meant to familiarize you with the process of token swapping through UniSwaps, at the time, new platform. At the same time UniSwap doubled up to give those that had swaped any token on their platform, in the early days, an exclusive UNI Token airdrop.

Where Can I buy Crypto Currency In New York City(NYC)?

You can use all of the options I mentioned above, to buy crypto in New York State! If you are a New Yorker, you likely have heard about the stricter regulations, of all states in the United sates, but good news, I’ve found the different platforms and figured out which are most user friendly, from a cost, interface and features standpoint, so you don’t have to go and waste time signing up for all of them. For someone trying to buy up some smaller alt coins, do some trading, and hold an overall position, I highly recommend KuCoin. If you are looking to get into Crypto and are just staring out building your Cryptocurrency portfolio and want to go with some of the more well known coins, like Bitcoin(BTC) and Ethereum(ETH), go with Coinbase. Coinbase is like the Robnhood of crytpo, enabling anyone to easily get access to crypto without a complicated interface…well Robinhood actually added crypto within the last year now too. Where Can I Buy Alt Coins In New York? KuCoin is the most straight forward platform when it comes to buying alt-coins. Their fees are comparable, and really only present when withdrawing fiat currency or crypto from you KuCoin account, to another wallet. Through their trading platform, KuCoin provides market price, options, and…they have also rolled out a new AI trading bot, which is definitely worth checking out, but should be closely monitored.

How to Mine NYC CityCoin Crypto Currency

As a financial hub for the United States, and the entire world, it is about time New York City got its own Cyrpto Currency. Cryptocurrency has come a long way since Bitcoin(BTC), all the way to popularized currencies like Ethereum(ETH) and even smaller alt coins like DOGE and FLOKI. So, is it time for NYC to have its own coin? No, New York City should have had its own coin months ago, if not years ago! However, the time is now, and here is how you can mine CityCoin's NYC Coin. What is NYC Coin? What do I need mine New York City Coin?Where Can I buy Stacks(STX) in New York?

What is NYC Coin?

NYC Coin is supported by CityCoins, a currency project giving crypto rewards to cities for improvement and rewarding contributing*(Mining or Stacking)* individuals and city governments. With support from the elected mayor of New York, Eric Adams, CityCoin was able to expedite the launch of New York City getting its very own cryptocurrency. The first coin that CityCoins launched, was Miami's MIA Coin. NYC Coin Mining launched on November 10th 2021, at which point no mining will occur for 150 blocks(~24 hours). After the cooldown period which should end roughly at 11:00 am EST on November 11th 2021, all miners will be able to start mining NYC tokens.

What Do I Need to Mine NYC Coin?

One of the best parts about NYC Coin is that you do not need a super expensive mining rig, to mine. All you need to mine NYC Coin is a basic laptop or desktop computer*(In this case I am on a Macbook Pro)*. It would be cool to see mobile compatibility roll out soon, but not at the moment. Additionally, you will need to have Stacks(STX) Coin(see how to buy Stacks(STX) affordably, without Uniswap or SushiSwp below), to forward STX to a CityCoins smart contract(NYC's in this case) on the Stacks blockchain. This is how their mining works. It is a bit different than typical mining setups, but the project has huge potential and one of the lowest costs to get involved. Lastly, you will need the Hiro Wallet browser extension. To start mining, follow the steps below, and then all you have to do is go to the Mine City Coins Website and it's pretty straightforward from there.

Where Can I Buy Stacks(STX) in New York?

Buying cryptocurrency in New York is shockingly getting harder and harder. There are some core institutions like Coinbase around that you can get more mainstream coins like Bitcoin(BTC) and Etherum(ETH) but unfortunately buying Stacks(STX) is a bit more complicated. Rest assured, I found an affordable way to buy Stacks(STX) in New York City. Head over to KUCOIN marketplace and set up an account. They may still have a random bonus reward going on that will open a mystery box upon transferring in, so do use code"r3CKSPG" to see if you get lucky. Once you have an account set up on KUCOIN, you are going to need Bitcoin(BTC) to buy Stacks(STX). I already had bitcoin in my Coinbase Wallet so I just sent BTC to my KUCOIN Bitcoin(BTC) wallet address. With KUCOIN do not if you don't initially see your balance, or go to trade it, they separate your account into a few wallets, the main wallet, and a trading wallet. It is quick, easy, and free to switch between internal account wallets. Once you are signed up from the link above and have Bitcoin(BTC) in your trading wallet you can head to trade BTC to STX. When it comes to trading everyone has their preference, but in the bottom right I typically choose "Market" to get the best market price, and then enter the amount, in Bitcoin(BTC), that I want to exchange to Stacks(STX) and click the green "Buy STX" button. Your trade should appear on the left-hand side of the page in the orders section. Once you have STX, you can transfer it to your Hiro Wallet, and are good to go!

Getting Started Mining NYC Coin:

1. Purchase Stacks(STX)

2. Create a Hiro Wallet(If you already have it, just connect it to CityCoins website)

3. Transfer Stacks(STX) to your Hiro Wallet

4. Head over to CityCoins Mining Interface and select NYC

5. Select the number of blocks to mine

6. Enter the amount you would like to bid for the block, by clicking on the actual block(You can click the check box to bid the same for all boxes if you would like).

Technical info from the CityCoins Team

CityCoins have three main functions that NYC Coin can utilize: Activation, Mining, and Stacking.

• Activation: NYCCoin only exist through mining, which does not begin until 20 independent wallets signal activation after the contract is deployed. No ICO, no pre-sale, no pre-mine.

• Mining: Anyone can mine NYCCoin by forwarding STX into a CityCoins smart contract on the Stacks blockchain. 30% of the STX that miners forward is sent directly to a reserved wallet for the city.

• Stacking: Anyone can Stack NYCCoin by locking them in a CityCoins smart contract for determined reward cycles, and receive a portion of the remaining 70% of the STX sent by miners.

• Mining Probability Chart(A NYCCoins example with real numbers: the table below assumes the total committed by miners is 500 STX, and you have 200 STX to spend.)
