Pei is dead. As in the cash back app that allowed you to earn Bitcoin. Not Prince Edward Island.

Robinhood doesn’t have fractional dividends or automatic dividend reinvestments, so I have to figure out what I want to do with those pennies I’ve been earning as dividends.

UPDATE: Pei is dead

If you mine cryptocurrency such as bitcoin, you’re making money. If you’re also in the US (or are a US citizen abroad), Uncle Sam wants his cut.

Bitcoin, and all other cryptocurrencies in general, have had an exciting couple of years - from 2017’s massive bull run to 2018’s massive bear market. If you bought and sold any bitcoin or other currencies, Uncle Sam wants his cut - especially if you made money.

Earlier this year I become interested in the cryptocurrency scene, particularly bitcoin. In addition to buying some bitcoin on Coinbase, I also bought an AntMiner S3 on eBay. I was using the AntMiner via the NiceHash service, but after the recent hack, I decided to move to an actual pool. After a very short amount of research, I decided to go with SlushPool, which is one of the older pools.
