Overview

While not always directly rewarding to the customer to purchase merchandise. Companies that your strongly support benefit and with time this can benefit the consumer as well . Today's article is a little different in that i am actually going to cover more than just products that have you staring at a screen. I haven't completely lost it however their will be a update to Pipeflare's services at the end.

Free is always good

Many that follow me may be aware that i have received some freebies from CoinGeko. There is a service offered to its users called CoinGeko candies.

Users log in to CoinGeko on a daily basis and collect candies for doing so. these candies can be redeemed for merchandise and discounts on crypto services and goods. I have already redeemed mine for a shirt:

I have been entering their drawings lately nothing as off yet but they have merchandise for users to outright purchase for their candies do if your new check them out.

Purchase to show your support.

Though not always an option for many I am not that well off so i can relate to anyone who has this issue. So when fall rolled around i cashed in my (BAT) Basic Attention Token from Brave Browser to buy a hooded sweat shirt sold on Brave's store.

My BAT added up to a little over $19.00 U.S.D and the Brave swag as they call it cost's $36.50 U.S.D. So basically the hoody cost me about $17.00 which isn't much more than a cheap one from Walmart or amazon. Given that the BAT was from using Brave and being a Brave content creator.

Necessity to crypto users

Now this last entry may be a bit controversial and being a necessity may not include everyone. However those whom find themselves using cryptocurrencies frequently or in large quantities. May want to consider using either a paper wallet or a had wallet. Myself i am using currently a Ledger hard wallet:

One must consider security when dealing with financial assets. This is why i consider such a purchase a necessity you could also use a paper wallet but given how disorganized i am this is a better option. I am in the process of getting a Trezor because i believe their products are a bit easier to use. But i believe their security is roughly similar to one another.

Pipeflare news

Pipeflare the faucet i recently covered has a new game on their service as of 10/27 called BeatBox:

Conclusion

You know how sports teams like their fans to wear their memorabilia to show their support. Cryptocurrencies need the support of their fans more so than sports teams in my opinion. Though relatively well known at this point cryptocurrency is still not as wide spread as it could be. Merchandise allows fans to show their support and allows the opportunity to start a dialog. Showing those around us the brands may inspire questions that would otherwise go unasked.

While showing your support on social media is helpful this can always be improved with brand awareness irl. That's why i like to get merchandise from my favorite crypto companies. I would like one day to even count read.cash merchandise among my collection HINT.
