I’m holding out hope for the FOLD card
I did get a FOLD card been trying to use that more
I am in America and I buy it daily on FOLD for zero fees. Also you can use Strike to buy it! If you set up a reoccuring purchase then it is zero fees after the first purchase. No matter what platform you use to buy Bitcoin, make sure you transfer your bitcoin to cold storage regularly. Don't leave a large figure of Bitcoin on any exchange because if that exchange fails or is hacked, you will lose everything that you don't put in self custody. I personally clean out my exchange wallets once a month by transferring to cold storage.
there were bitcoin faucets in 2017, they only gave out like 50 sats at a time, but they existed. The closest thing to that now is the FOLD app that gives away like 5 sats if you spin a wheel for it.
FOLD. It’s best alternative to move to a Bitcoin standard early.
Hmmm, this got me thinking. So Fund my FOLD account to cover the mortgage payments and stack sats that way. Then I could still use the rental income to build a bitcoin reserve and keep a predetermined amount in the HYSA for emergencies, repairs, and surprise costs.
Right, I only use the FOLD card for the rental's mortgage payment.
The closest I can offer you (and I do like your idea) is that my rental income comes out of a FOLD Account that I dedicated towards the rent, as the Tenant pays rent and the mortgage is taken out of the FOLD account, I get the small BTC rewards they offer... its about as passive as passive comes until I find some better ideas, but I'm not complaining about free sats.
Yea :). I want to be careful about estates, and gifts, and capital gains, or accidentally taxing my FIFO on my own accounts. But I’ll probably eat those risks and just use a different route like the FOLD App I was considering putting her mortgage payment in the fold app (I’m going to rent the house out) and let that earn the 0.5% in Satoshi rewards too.
This is the way, also apps like FOLD where you earn sats as rewards and dozens of other apps.
Personally I am not using Bitcoin for daily business but if there was a service that would make this easy, I definitely would use it. It seems that most people on this sub are in Bitcoin for gains. So am I, but i am also here also for revolution. I pay with lightning and even onchain whenever I can, as soon as a service like FOLD will be available in the EU I will try and leave the euro for as much as I can.
No disrespect, but $20/mo isn’t “much”, at least in the sense to move to cold storage. Everyone’s different, but until you have ~ $1,000 USD worth, I think leaving it on coinbase will be fine for you imo. Once you hit $1,000 then move it to cold storage. Then just repeat. Stack up a few hundred over a few months, then send to cold storage. Otherwise your just gonna spend a bunch in fees and cost of cold storage device. Alternatively, consider looking into FOLD. It’s a “cash back” debit card that you get cash back in btc. I’ve been using it since 2021 and love it. Well worth the premium version. I’ve stacked a LOT of sats over the past 3 years + you can buy btc directly and then send it to cold storage as well. GL on stacking. Every bit helps even $20/mo but unless you have a certain amount, it doesn’t really make sense to use cold storage. Those cold storage devices typically cost $50-$200 depending on what you buy.
Yep. I’ve had the spin+ version for over 3 years now. I have CC’s with cash back rewards and over time FOLD outperforms for sure. Also convenient to buy btc instantly, and I love the round up options (the first month round ups were available I did the 10x multiplier and that was not too much lol 😂) All in all 10/10. * I’ve also stacked some hella sats from spinning the wheel 🥂
I found FOLD after finding out I couldn’t get a Curve Card in the U.S. Been pretty dang happy with Fold. I was just a free daily spin guy for a long time but realized quickly I could be stacking BTC while not spending a single penny more than I’m already spending. F’n LOVE earning BTC for paying my rent, health insurance, CC… only thing I haven’t been able to ‘fold’ into my Strat is my car payment.
You Missed: FOLD - BTC Back and bonus spins for purchases using their App/Card. Do you eat at Taco Bell at all? You could be stacking BTC and spending the same as you already are…. As an example. I double stack with my Fold Debit card. I buy everything with my Venmo CC that gives 1-3% back depending on category. Then I pay my Venmo CC with my FOLD Debit Card and get 0.5% BTC plus bonus spins (won a million $says on a spin once)
I don’t know where to post this as I pretty much just lurk & read but here’s my question. Would sure appreciate any input/feedback … Thank you! ******* Does anyone here buy Bitcoin on the FOLD APP?? I’m trying to transfer 300,000+ SATS and the fee is 26,000 Sats. Isn’t that SUPER HIGH???? 😨🤷🏻♀️
I actually set up an auto-stack with my loaded FOLD card and you get 2 spins for every $10 purchase. So I was doing that daily for awhile but I think I’ll do $5.00/day until the halving. Getting the Xtra spins for Sats is a Bonus. If you don’t have a Fold card you’re missing out!!
I keep as little as possible in my bank….when SS comes in…transfer enough to my FOLD card, pay my bills & pay some in cash. Opened an acct w/Old Glory Bank as it’s a Conservative based bank. Stopped keeping Xtra $$$ in the banks a long time ago.
Does anyone use their FOLD account for recurring buys?
Check out FOLD and Lolli. It’s small stacking but can help you make progress with purchases you might be making anyway - in fact I get sats back even when paying certain credit card bills, using the Fold card via PayPal Billpay.
Jesus Coin is GAINING ATTENTION! This is the underdog of CRYPTO. Do you believe in Jesus?#JesusCoin Im not sure how Jesus Coin has went un noticed yet but this is the time for that to all change. I do not consider Jesus Coin a "Meme Coin" I consider it a "Mission Coin" as it is not a meme but it is serving the purpose of spreading word and religion and good faith. Unlike Pepe Coin and Doge and Shiba that are all pump and dump hype coins Jesus is not like them. Ask yourself, do you or others believe in Jesus? That answer is exactly why this coin will thrive and survive long term aswell. Its currently a 30 million market cap and can easily pass MAGA (Trump Coin) with a 400m market cap. Pepe Coin has a 2.4 BILLION market cap. Doge has a 22.1B market cap, Shiba 13.8b market cap. JESUS COIN WILL GO BLOW ALL OF THEM OUT OF THE WATER TEN FOLD+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! By the time people start talking about it on the big news its too late! Jesus loves you! Buy Jesus Believe Jesus! #JesusCoin if it hits only a billion market cap 5k usd will turn into 200k usd
Does anyone here have the FOLD Debit card??? All of a sudden they’ve eliminated many merchants from their Bill Paying option where you could pay your Bill as a “Signature payment” and earn a bunch of SATS plus Extra Spins. This includes Chase Bank and I’m now unable to pay my Mortgage or car payment which truly is making me ponder whether paying a monthly fee for the Spin Plus card is worth it. Anyone else having same issue???
Hey DCA fellows! Get a FOLD Visa card You can buy Satoshi for no fee. Also every purchase you make you get free Satoshi‘s back into your account. Also, they have a wheel that you can spin and get more. Satoshi‘s back. I DCA every day and just transfer it to my wallet occasionally. This is the best deal I know of
Anyone who leaves their coins on Coinbase or other platforms is risking what they have. I try to put everything in my wallet pretty quick. I just transferred my first haul of Bitcoin rewards from my FOLD Debit card earnings to my wallet the other day, which totaled $43 roughly 83,000+ Sats I was rewarded in about 2-1/2 months time. I didn’t even make that much in 2 years of RAKUTEN cash back rewards !!! I’m having a Blast using this Debit card and earning money just by paying my bills with it via PayPal Bill pay!! I can’t link my referral link here but so grateful I found out about from GMoney on Telegram!!!
Does anyone here buy Bitcoin on their FOLD Debit card? My Oplan advisor (where I discovered Fold which I Love) told me not to purchase via their app. My next ZOOM MEET w/ him is next week but I’m curious as to why. For every $10 purchase you earn a Free Spin to even Stack more Sats so I’m not seeing the downside.🤷🏻♀️
Honestly… I forced myself to learn about Bitcoin about 3-1/2 years ago. I started watching YouTube videos and felt safest opening a Swan acct. But then graduated to a Bitcoin Telegram channel and Community. There I learned about Oplan and got help creating my own wallet. I’m so happy I took those steps. The only regret I have is not starting sooner and also not finding out about the FOLD Debit card to earn FREE SATS on almost everything including bill paying thru PayPal. It’s truly amazing. I’d post the link but I don’t want to get booted. 🤷🏻♀️
Are you speaking to after the halving? I forced myself to learn about Bitcoin in 2020 & opened a Swan acct & did DCA for the most part in small amounts as I’m not rich by any means. Retired w/small pension, I got help w/setting up my wallet for self custody. I’m still learning but know more than most normies. I’m desperately trying to stack as much as I can B4 April but am so pissed they’re manipulating Gold & Silver w/their Fake Economic numbers including inflationary and jobs numbers. I’m trying to cash in on metals & convert to Bitcoin. I quit using Strike as their daily/weekly Limits were ridiculous!! I’ve never used Coinbase but prefer River. I’ve got a zoom set up with Oplan to set up a Blue Wallet which I hadn’t heard of before. I’m generally still a rookie as I don’t mine but I did get a FOLD debit card in November and can say I WISH I’d know about that sooner…as I LOVE getting FREE Sats for almost everything including paying Bills!!I still can’t seem to convince my family about Bitcoin. Breaks my heart that many may lose their savings eventually.😩
I stopped using Coinbase last year and now use FOLD…. Zero fees to buy. Fold is a prepaid debit card that earns sats on every purchase. I’ve been using PayPal bill pay through the card to pay my mortgage and get 1.5% back in sats…
It does not work anymore. I wish I joined earlier. I was getting over 2% on avg with spins in late 2022, then they changed to 1% flat (+spins that are garbage), then they reduced to 0.5% (+garbage spins) and now any paypal billpay transaction must be a "signature" transaction to get the 0.5% if you are paying the membership. Only one of my 8 credit cards that I use ends up a "signature" transaction and my mortgage is NOT, so it does not come close to paying for the $10 per month membership any longer. I had to quit the FOLD membership. I am hoping all the paypal billpay transactions gets rewards in the future and I will join again.
Unless paypal billpay is a "signature" transaction, it no longer pays the already reduced 0.5% rewards. I hope they fix that and I will join again as I really liked FOLD but at this point it is not worth it.

GOALS 🥅 I already was a satoshi millionaire but I upped my M ranking when I won 🙌 a Mil Sats from a FOLD Spin. That was a lovely day.
Weak hands SOLD HODLR’s HOLD USD is OLD Time to moon 10 FOLD
Spicy BOLD Iceland COLD Poker FOLD Halving TOLD April 2025 go BTC
Weak hands SOLD. HODLRs HOLD. USD is OLD. Time to moon 10 FOLD.
Any coin capable of doing that or close to that should come from the trending narratives. I'm expecting some tokens like TENET, SPOOL and FOLD to go close to that since they are bringing amazing utility on top of LSDs.
No, I love it because the FOLD card works again!
I must say since the announcement that paypal bill pay was fixed it has worked flawless for me. I could not get money over to FOLD fast enough to pay bills due in early May, but all transactions have completed with no issues. The spin rewards are not even close to what I was getting before the FOLD changes, but if you just accept 1% back on CC, mortgage and car payment bills is better than nothing and that bitcoin is going to be much higher in the future, all is good for me with FOLD for now. A tip for Paypal - I removed all payment methods and banks except FOLD debit unless I need them to avoid Paypal from selecting a backup payment that I did no want.
We are back up and running with FOLD + PPBP. Fold rewards are not as good as they were, but better than nothing for paying CC, car payments and mortgage! [https://blog.foldapp.com/fold-paypal-stack/](https://blog.foldapp.com/fold-paypal-stack/)
I choose AMEX, because their chargeback protection is top tier. You wouldn’t be able to chargeback anything laying with FOLD.
An update from FOLD twitter [https://blog.foldapp.com/paypal-update/](https://blog.foldapp.com/paypal-update/) What We Know (and don't) Good News: Other types of bills still work! Rent, insurance, taxes, utilities, phone, etc! Bad News: This was an intentional move by Paypal. Fold and other popular "pre-paid" debit cards have been blocked as a payment method for certain types of bills including; mortgages, credit cards, and auto loans. **Other Good News: It may not be permanent. We've discussed this with PayPal and Visa and hope to return this supersizing opportunity to you in the future.**
I believe this may be your solution that is posted at the Paypal Community Forum. *"I just payed my Citibank (Costco Credit Card) and Synchrony (PayPal's very own credit card) Credit Cards over the phone using the Fold Debit card. I've also been told that Chase will let you pay via debit card at any of their branded ATMs, but for some stupid reason, they don't allow debit card payment over the phone/app/websites.* *So, our double-dipping on CCs/Fold can still work, it's now just a PITA and takes twice as long to accomplish, but still worth it, in my opinion."* I drove 30 minutes to my local Chase bank (after on the phone Chase said I could NOT use a debit card) and yes I could pay my Chase Credit card with the FOLD debit card BUT there was no spinning of the wheel, no rewards with this transaction, no double dipping for me. At least this is a method for me to remove the money I piled up on FOLD to pay off mortgage, car payments and basically ALL of my bills. I stopped weekly funding. I have stopped direct deposit to FOLD. I hope things change, but I believe my FOLD days are over. When you use your Citi Cards over the phone, do you spin the wheel? BTW...I don't have a Citi card and my 840 credit score just got rejected. Second rejection in 3 months. They won't tell me why or how to improve my chances other than too many recent cards without history. They probably do not see a history because I was paying off my credit card purchases the same day with FOLD before they even posted! I was a spinning the wheel fool! This sucks.
My mortgage is through Newrez, which is found in the list of paypal billpay merchants. I can't call newrez directly and use the debit card so my FOLD days may be over. I see you were able to call Citi to use FOLD, but that may be one of the only CC's that allows this. I read Captial One may offer this too. I have every other card but Citi and now out of luck. Just tried to transfer some of my money from FOLD / Sutton and got a call from the Chase fraud dept and they denied the ach. I don't mind spinning a wheel when double dipping with credit card rewards, but I do not plan on using FOLD for initial purchases.
UPDATE on removing money from FOLD - Chase Fraud Dept just called 3/20. They can't take money from FOLD/Sutton bank and send it to my Chase account that I initiated from Chase website per the FOLD instructions. Unreal
I pay my CC bills the day I charge the card with FOLD and paypal bill pay. My last successful FOLD billpay was March 4. Paypal has tried telling me it is FOLD or the merchants and I have been through two 72 hour waiting periods for my FOLD card to clear security holds with still no luck. This is definitely a Paypal issue because today I tried my car payment and mortgage and both failed with FOLD. I have made \~70 payments this way since December and now it appears to be shutdown. Between this and the Coinbase debit card rewards still at 1%, this sucks!
My BJs Wholesale credit card just switched to Capital One and was found on Paypal bill pay but as we know, I can't use the FOLD card anymore with paypal. I tried to set up a payment with the Capital one app and website and it is only giving me an option for bank ach. No debit card option with FOLD.
I reached out to FOLD and asked them to contact Paypal to help fix this. They have the most responsive customer service but do not seem interested in fixing this and will lose customers if billpay no longer works so I asked how to get my money back to my bank. https://support.foldapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360056679332-How-do-I-move-funds-from-the-Fold-Card-to-my-own-personal-bank-account-?source=search&auth\_token=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJhY2NvdW50X2lkIjoyNDE4NDIwLCJ1c2VyX2lkIjo0MTAzNDQ0MzczMTEsInRpY2tldF9pZCI6NDQ4MTAsImNoYW5uZWxfaWQiOjYzLCJ0eXBlIjoiU0VBUkNIIiwiZXhwIjoxNjMwMTY0Nzc4fQ.Ij8yYqUwRbQ4Ulwd09iX-iqvQ8wtg7gOVX71M0cxshU
I tried the Prism app, but couldn't get it to allow me to add the Fold card as a method of payment. I'm not seeing any other outfit that works the way PayPal did. They all require bank account (ACH/EFT) info. I also tried funding my actual PayPal account balance using the Fold card... No dice. I also tried using my Crypto.com prepaid debit card and had the same issues. It appears that PayPal is blocking the use of prepaid debit cards or maybe just those tied in any way to BTC/Crypto. It's awful coincidental that this service went offline the same time SVB, Sig and Silvergate "crypto friendly banks" melted down. Chokepoint 2.0, perhaps? Everyone go click the "me too" issue button on the PayPal community page at the link below. I'm not holding my breath, but maybe if we make enough noise, we'll get some movement toward a fix. https://www.paypal-community.com/t5/Transactions/Paypal-denying-FOLD-CARD-payments-for-credit-card-payments/m-p/3045784#M124640

Good advice!! I like to think FOLD is much more solvent though because of the fees they get from Spin+ users plus transaction cash back.
Pro tip: You can link you FOLD card to PayPal bill pay. You can pay credit card bills through PayPal. So, you can buy everything with a credit card and get 1-5% back depending on the purchase type and type of credit card you have. Then, use PayPal bill pay to pay the credit card bill each month to avoid interest and eject to pay it using your linked FOLD card, so get you your sats reward on the credit card payoff.
Things about to get interesting. Will you HOLD or FOLD?
I use the FOLD debit card. I just have an auto transfer of my typical weekly spend on groceries, household items, etc. setup. Between that, and the daily wheel you spin, I’ve gotten a little over 500,000 Sats in the past 6 months. I do the free version of the card, but would like come out a little ahead, being a ‘+’ member
Will FOMO follow the FOMC, or will it FOLD instead?
Yep. The best part is, I used to pay all these things directly from my checking account. Now I'm spending the exact same amount (add some miniscule fees) while stacking millions of sats doing it. I love FOLD.
“CRYPTO TANKS 10 FOLD!!! J.P. Morgan buys dip, and fucks retail yet again.”
I mine BAN since september 2021. I allways wanted to invest in a 2x 6 GPU RIG but now I'm glad I didn't do it. FOLDING BAN is low energy use and it's for a good cause. I think you can FOLD other coins
A lot of shit advices here - in the meantime FOLD and Amplifi are mooning since several weeks already. And they will not stop - because very high IQ projects.
\> return back to what technology tried to achieve in the first place: cures for cancers You mean like FOLD@HOME which uses CPU power to find cures for diseases, and rewardes people with banano. Real tech right there.
I'm saying that the USD flowing through the biggest company on earth is unlikely to be eclipsed to the tune of EIGHTY FOLD the USD value of Bitcoin. I don't think you guys are really grasping how much money that is.
YOU GOTTA KNOW WHEN TO HOLD EM KNOW WHEN TO FOLD EM KNOW WHEN TO WALK AAWAY AND KNOW WHEN TO RUN I have the mindset of, “I have to get back.” “Im down too much, I have to get back to where I was.” “I only need one big win and I’ll be good.” It’s destructive. It’s a game you cannot win. I have no advice on winning, but I can assure you that too much of ANYTHING can be detrimental. Find other things to focus on, OP. The world is crumpling at the seams already, we don’t need you crumbling as well.
hey! I use Swan Bitcoin and Strike to purchase bitcoin - they're the easiest ways to automate (daily/monthly) purchases as low as $10, or to 'smash buy' just $1 worth. one of the most successful strategies is to buy every day (a bit more on dip days!) and hold. I also use 'FOLD' debit card to get 1-3%+ 'bitcoin back' on every purchase i make. you'll get $10 if you use my referral codes on either service - [https://swanbitcoin.com/swanborce](https://swanbitcoin.com/swanborce) [https://xbbb.world/strike](https://xbbb.world/strike) [https://xbbb.world/fold](https://xbbb.world/fold) and you can read more about each service at my blog: [https://hodl.rodeo/blogs/hodl-rodeo/aint-nothing-to-it-but-to-do-it-do-you-really-wanna-know](https://hodl.rodeo/blogs/hodl-rodeo/aint-nothing-to-it-but-to-do-it-do-you-really-wanna-know) and find encouragement from some corny jokes: [https://instagram.com/hodl.rodeo](https://instagram.com/hodl.rodeo) ​ keep stacking!
Didn't realize you can use your coinbase card to purchase FOLD gift cards....
The FOLD card is also good too. You load with USD but earn bitcoin rewards by using the debit card. It also offers higher percentage back if you buy gift cards on the app.
[FOLD Card](https://foldapp.com/) has cashback in BTC on most payments.
 Do you even FOLD bro?!

How much eating healthy is enough? Can you start eating steak, baconators with cheese and cow milkshakes with scrambled eggs and absolutley no vegetables because you ate healthy for 20 years? NO BROTHER NO You ALWAYS stack sats and you ALWAYS eat healthy. EVEN IF THAT MEANS YOU JUST SPIN THE FOLD WHEEL EVERY DAY YOU STACK FOREVER FOREVER LAURA FOREVER Unless you want to die FAST and have fun staying poor.
I've been using the FOLD app for over a year for free satoshis and it's so painfully slow I wish I didn't bother. Much better to put your crypto into nexo or the like and earn what I did in 1 year in a month
They did. Its coming out in jan. For beta. Check out FOLD AR
Love the idea, but that website for FOLD — It's really weak
https://imgur.com/a/uFspfjL Costly to use? These transactions I made here didn't cost me anything other than my willingness to miss out the "gains". But I have "savings" in BTC too. On the first layer. The transaction of buying the Gift Cards from FOLD is pretty flush and I'm looking for another vendor who sell AMAZON Gift Cards and other cards via LN. But okay, I'm the idiot because I believe this is much more convenient way of buying products from these particular merchants as of now - while hoping in the future more merchants along with these three I mentioned accept payments via LN directly. The people using e-mails in 90s were idiots too. You could just send a Fax and they get the document right there on the spot. If you want to tell someone something, you can just call them. Why would you want to type to someone halfway across the world?
