Getting Paid in Crypto from Affiliate Programs

Hello friends, I am a bit new to cryptocurrency and need some help and advice.

I am looking for different ways to get paid from programs, and I see they are offering to pay in Bitcoin. I would like to start this so I am not left behind in this world forever.

Each time I have tried to do things with crypto, I end up losing like 50% through fees (small transactions).

I have accounts with Coinbase, Binance, and I have a wallet set up with Exodus. I am not sure if any of these are really good or really bad.

I looked at Coinbase, and when I get a receiving address, it just keeps changing the address, which I do not understand.

I could send it to my Exodus wallet, but I think I will end up paying tons of fees later to actually get the money into an exchange when I want to cash out? Is that correct?

I will probably have payments around $500 USD each time, I don't need to cash out now, but as I don't really trust Bitcoin yet, I probably wont let it get very big.

WIth my luck I will download some virus and get hacked...

Thank you for any tips or advice!

dont send it to exodus its very fast but fees will fuck you in the ass
