EDIT 9/28/15: Coinbase has now blocked me from doing this. Prior to offering it, a friend had emailed the CEO of Coinbase and got the go-ahead. A few weeks later a CSR told me that they were disabling referral bonuses for my account. I have paid out 100+ readers and will continue to pay out anyone I get a bonus for. I’m told that anyone who signed up before 9/28 will qualify. If you made your account before 9/28 and I did not pay you, please email me.
I hesitate posting stuff like this because I generally try to talk about stuff that might be useful long term, not just a quick short term boost. But I figure most readers could use a free $36.50, so it’s probably worth posting. And I’ll still post a real post later this week.
Coinbase is the premiere place to buy bitcoins. I’m a big believer in bitcoin and have bought through Coinbase myself. Right now they have a promotion where if someone buys $100 of bitcoins, the person who referred them gets $75. Sign up under my link, and I’ll split the $75 with you, so that we each get $37.50.
The service fee is 1%, which means that you’ll spend $101 to get $137.50. You can immediately cash back out to cash, or you can keep the bitcoin.
Once you buy the $100 and it arrives, send me an email and I’ll send you back $37.50. Total time should be around five minutes to get some free money and support this blog.
This works in the US, UK, and most of Europe. Coinbase is a huge US company that’s raised $100MM, so there’s no risk. You have to buy 100 in your currency (100 GBP, USD, EUR, etc).

And… once you’re signed up, you can make this same deal with your friends or family, so you could make more than $36.50.
