Earn Free XDC Coins

Bitcoin and Ethereum can be mined by setting up mining infrastructure. But XDC is a green coin. It is mining-free and thus saves energy. There are still many ways to get free XDC coins.

So, here are some possible ways to earn free XDC.

Download the XDC Wallet and store private key at a safe place:

This first step to earning free XDC is to download the XDC mobile wallet to send/receive XDC coins. Through this easy-to-use wallet, you can also store and manage other cryptocurrencies such as ETH, USDT, USDC and XDC testnet coins. While using the XDC wallet, users must store their private keys in a safe place since it’s a decentralized wallet and does not store any private keys. They must keep the key in a safe place as it is mandatory to have a private key to access the wallet.

How to Earn XDC rewards with XDC holding?

If you already own XDC coins and would like to earn more XDC coins, you can do so by staking XDC as a network member (Masternode). As a Masternode, you can earn XDC rewards on the network.

What exactly is staking?

Staking is the process of holding funds in a cryptocurrency wallet to support the operations of a blockchain network. Essentially, it consists of locking cryptocurrencies to receive rewards. For Example, a person can stalk 10 million XDC stored in his wallet and runs a masternode with the one-click installer. The total cost for hosting a masternode depends on the market price of 10 million XDC and cost to host a masternode on the server.

Steps to earn rewards by becoming a Network Participant ( masternode )

1. Buy 10 million XDC from the open market.

Here is the list of various exchanges you can get XDC from. Alphaex.net exchange also has an OTC desk to get bulk XDC Coin.

2. Stake your coins and run a masternode with the one-click installer: https://medium.com/xinfin/steps-to-setup-masternode-on-xinfin-mainnet-bf66dda3ea1c

3. Earn free XDC rewards daily.

I had purchased 10 million XDC to set up a masternode and now I am earning rewards daily. The number depends upon the number of network participants and number of transactions happening on the XinFin Blockchain Network.

Happy Earning!
