::'''Step 1.''' Have your artist create an account at coinbase.com to receive BitCoin. In the left menu, the artist selects "Earn rewards" > "Invite friends" > "Copy link".

::'''Step 2.''' This is a rainy day fund, don't be in a hurry to purchase your BTC, you have [https://help.coinbase.com/en/coinbase/other-topics/other/the-coinbase-referral-program 180 days] to purchase.

::'''Step 3.''' Once you have purchased your BTC, your artist will receive her referral commission and your on-going support can start. You should now have $97.01 worth of BTC and if you followed step 2, your holdings should increase to beyond $100.00 on the next upswing.
