This is the thread that we need for those people that creates thread about a certain altcoin. They don't spend time telling or educating the people who are reading their thread what the coin is all about.

My question.

How does people earn through KIN monthly? as I understand, whenever other spends their KIN, holders will earn just like staking? is it like that?

Great question! You can earn KIN two different ways. One way is as a user which is the most common way. The other way is as a developer which takes a lot more effort, but has much higher payouts.

User

Users are users of the applications that have integrated KIN. The way that you earn KIN within each app can vary drastically. You might earn some KIN for creating an account. Some apps will reward you with KIN for watching ads. Some apps allow their users to earn KIN from filling out a survey. There's an app where you can win KIN from predicting the outcome of a sporting event. There's an app where you can earn KIN based on your score while playing various mobile games. There's honestly too many different ways to give an example of each. I will list a few apps below with their download links and how you can earn KIN within the different apps.

Developer

Developers are essentially the "miners" of the ecosystem. 60% of all KIN ever created was set aside for the Kin Rewards Engine (KRE). The KRE distributes KIN every week to all the app developers who have integrated KIN within their apps. The amount of KIN that a developer receives is directly related to their app's contribution to the ecosystem. So if your app has 100,000's of users earning, spending, tipping, or buying KIN within the app, you will get a larger distribution of KIN than another application that only has 100 users earning, spending, tipping, or buying. The KRE algorithm has changed over time and will continue to evolve as the community and developers propose changes.

Here is a great breakdown of the KRE distributions. This was put together by a community member. It's a lot of data, but interesting to look at.

This last week 3,271,895,205 KIN ($19,991) was distributed between all the apps of the ecosystem. The top performing application received 44% of the payout (1,464,431,301 KIN or $8948). So it can be pretty lucrative to integrate KIN into your application. This particular app already had many users prior to integrating KIN. So it's easier for already established apps to earn a bigger share, but that's because they're providing the largest contribution to the ecosystem. Other apps are making $1000's or $100's or even just $10's weekly for their contributions as well.

Here is a short list of a few KIN applications that you can earn/spend KIN in:

MadLipz - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/madlipz-instant-dub-and-sub/id1056224570

Earn Kin by creating Lipz (voice dubbed videos) and receiving tips from other users. You can also earn KIN from watching an ad, filling out a survey, or even sharing your video on social media.

PeerBet - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/peerbet/id1441354291

Earn KIN by watching ads or bet your KIN on the outcome of an event, like a sport event for example. If you're right, you win KIN, if you're wrong you lose KIN.

BlockGames - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/blockgames-play-games-earn/id1510620447

Earn KIN from your scores withing various mini games of this app. There's currently 6 different games you can choose from. Each game will cost a little bit of KIN to play, but as long as you get a decent score you will win that KIN back plus more. The higher your score, the more KIN you win.

KinFit - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/kinfit/id1471008346

Earn KIN just for walking. Download the app and connect it to your phone or even FitBit. The app will track your steps and reward you with KIN based on the amount of steps you do each day.

MonkingMe - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/monkingme-download-music/id1207004680

Earn KIN for listening to music. The more music you listen to, the bigger the KIN payout. You can also earn KIN from watching ads or filling out a survey.

That's a long read.

Which means that there are other methods that a person can do to earn KIN. I'll study about these method about KIN and see if what suits my position but I like the idea of most methods that KIN has.

Especially the last part of listening to music but I guess that reward isn't that much.
