Be careful, you’re not going to cover yourself with what I’m going to tell you, but if you’re going to get the equivalent of the HBO Max subscription for a year or equivalent, so read carefully.

Recently, when we thought about generating money by «lending» your computer, we all went to cryptocurrency mining, or at least me, but in addition to generating a lot of stress for the computer, it spent a lot of light and today’s rewards are ridiculous, so it’s not worth it.

But what if you share your bandwidth? Since we all already have more internet capacity than we need most of the time, you can share that excess bandwidth and get paid for it. All this taking into account that if at any time you need 100% of your «internet» you always have priority.

Stop rolling and tell me what I need

Well, very easy, a computer that the longer it is connected the more money it will generate and a program linked to your account.

If you already have a computer that is on for a long time because you use it to download, great, use that same one. If you don’t have it, appreciate if it’s worth leaving the one you have. But there are alternatives to leaving a computer:

  • An old android phone
  • An old iPhone that you don’t use
  • A raspberry pi
  • A NAS that has an Intel processor and supports Docker
