150 sats \ 3 replies \ @Jippi OP 2 Feb freebie \ parent \ on: The best way to earn and learn about Bitcoin with others Education
Great question. Yzer was one of the apps we looked at when we were building Jippi.
Yzer does a pretty good job of offering quick learning modules which are optimized for 3 minutes or less, as well as providing sats rewards to incentivize progress, but Yzer (and other earn and learn apps) fall short in two main ways:
  1. Content is limited and the biggest feedback we noticed was users drop off after completing the modules. These apps don't do a good job of offering upward momentum to help progress the learner to different stages of their Bitcoin journey.
  2. Yzer offers Zoom calls and other social features like a leaderboard, but they don't provide a solid online community of learners within the app. We believe that learning about Bitcoin requires a much more interactive approach - specifically interacting with other Bitcoiners, participating in knowledge-sharing sessions, and going to offline events. The current earn and learn apps don't facilitate any of this in app.

We believe that education should be as varied as Bitcoiners themselves, so our goal is to provide tiered learning experiences in the form of different Paths:
Tier 1 - Beginner-friendly, bitesize content for quick-fire learning Tier 2 - Narrative-driven content for more immersive learning Tier 3 - A personalized, in-depth learning experience tailored to user interests
Along with supportive online communities for educational audio conversations. We think Jippi is going to be the best place to start your Bitcoin journey.

Yeah I often find myself bored on Yzer. Plus they force the subscription down your throat after every lesson. I was trying to keep a daily streak but that was sort of broken too

Also Yzer doesn’t always facilitate successful withdrawals. I recall at least three occasions in which I tried to withdraw my sats from Yzer to ZBD. I saw zero sats on Yzer but my sats never showed up on ZBD - I don’t know why the transaction fell through ;(
Nonetheless I use Yzer because it gives me 50 sats for doing nothing every few days haha

Interesting, that's pretty cruddy to have such a flakey withdrawal mechanism. Glad to hear you enjoy getting some sats every day ⚡
