Monday Madness: Pay with Bitcoin

CryptoGrind burst onto the scene this week, offering a platform similar to Fiverr, but let’s be honest—more fun and financially intriguing!

  • Freelancers can showcase skills in marketing, audio/video production, writing, and programming, all while getting paid in bitcoin.
  • The site also provides an escrow service, ensuring a secure transaction for both parties.

Social Networking with a Twist

On the same day, Sato.sh invited a select few into their exclusive beta phase—think of it as Reddit, but with the added sweetener of bitcoin rewards for content that gets upvoted. Who doesn’t want to get paid for their meme genius?

Interested users can request an invitation—because nothing screams exclusivity like being ‘invitationally’ selected.

Tuesday Transformations

Cryptothrift has undergone a rebranding revolution, now known as Bitify. This platform is like the eBay of the crypto world, where you can auction everything from gift cards to—wait for it—real estate! All transactions can be completed in bitcoin or litecoin.

Additionally, both buyers and sellers are protected by escrow services, because we’re all about safety and sound funds!

Shipping and Bitcoin: A New Partnership

Ever dreamed of printing your own shipping labels with bitcoin? Dream no more! Shipcoin makes this a reality. Just hop onto their site, enter your details, and voilà—your USPS label appears before your eyes, all thanks to the magic of crypto.

Wicked Wednesday Woes and Wins

Sadly, not all news was squeaky clean. Traders using Cryptsy have reported withheld funds and a lack of response to withdrawal requests. A word to the wise? Perhaps give Cryptsy a second thought next time you’re ready to trade.

Meanwhile, the Russian publication Forklog decided to shake things up by issuing a Forklog Asset on the NXT Asset Exchange, raising over 300,000 NXT (~US$220) within hours. Talk about hitting the ground running!

Trustless Thursday Tech

The innovation train didn’t stop! Denarium unveiled the first “trustless” physical bitcoin—think of it as the techie’s dream come true. This 2-of-2 multisignature coin allows owners to generate a private key themselves while keeping part of the signing power safe. Trust issues? Kicked out the window!

And let’s not forget Ucontrol.TV, where philanthropy meets the Internet of Things. Users can donate to specific addresses and watch live water streams flow on TV. Because who doesn’t want to be serenaded by the sweet sound of charity while watching water trickle?

Looking Ahead

As we wrap up this week, stay tuned for the next episode where we scoop you up with more updates from the fascinating worlds of cryptocurrency, 3D printing, drones, and beyond. We promise to keep you on the cutting edge!
