It won't make you rich, but opposed to other sites which require you to fill forms, play games etc. these apps require no action from you at all after setting up - a true "Passive Income" 😉
I created docker commands optimized for RaspberryPi 3/4update: I also added a docker compose file, you can either one
- Sign up to one or more of the following sites
- Use your relevant identification in the docker commands
- Create the containers (earnapp and bitping require special attention)
- Earn money 💰
To register your node with earnapp, you need to run the container with a unique hash that you can generate. After running for a few minutes, you will be able to register your hash with earnapp site.
To generate your hash (YOUR_DEVICE_NAME can be any string):
echo -n 'YOUR_DEVICE' | md5sum | sed 's/.*/sdk-node-&/'
To register your node using the hash use the following link: https://earnapp.com/r/YOUR_HASH
Bitping requires a different setup - the app need to be started in interactive mode for the first connection.
Use the following command in your home folder:
sudo docker run --rm -it -v ${PWD}/.data/.bitping/:/root/.bitping bitping/bitping-node:latest
The container will run and ask for your credentials, after you're succefully authenticated it will create a sub folder with the connection parameters. Now you can use CTRL+C to stop the container and proceed with the standard docker setup. It will be faster since the image has already been downloaded.
Emulation for ARM devices (RPi)
In some cases you may encounter an error:
-WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the detected host platform (linux/arm64/v8) and no specific platform was requested
To fix that, you need to install an emulator using the following command:
sudo docker run --privileged --rm tonistiigi/binfmt --install all

🚨 Important Tips:
- Do not use $ (dollar sign) in your passwords. Linux environments do not like it.
- If you think about using a cheap hosted VPS (Virtual Private Server) to run these apps, unfortunately it won't work 😕. The apps check the ip address and when it's associated with a hosting platform or a VPN provider they won't use your bandwith.
