Topic: Crypto faucets (good and bad) - page 2. (Read 365 times)

Bestchange, the one I’m wearing on my signature, has also a faucet. You could try theirs, too.

What I don’t understand is your insistence on faucets. Let me be a broken record, you will more easily find a job that pays better even in you current situation than earn well in faucets, unless you intend to stick to this faucet thing for years.

Don’t celebrate with your $2.49 just yet; it couldn’t even pay for the fees.

Reading your posts, it seems to me that you have what it takes to write a more than decent news article, essay, review, or whatever content. There’s probably a lot of online writing jobs out there which pay you fairly.

I feel sorry for what you’re going through right now. I wish you all the luck in the world!

You don't have to thank me. I hope the faucets you visited are legit and you can cash out the once you reached the minimum needed which as you said that it is 5 dollars. I did use faucet on freebitco.in but I didn't visit it much so I only gathered 300 plus satoshi but I stopped since it will take a lot of time before I could reach 30 000 satoshi to withdraw it from freebitco.in. Anyways, good luck on maming it to 5 dollars and see if you can withdraw it though it is not what it used to be before.

I somehow understand what you are going through, OP. You are at least leaning on the fact that faucets may yield you BTCs (or $$$) just by clicking. Though it is relatively slow compared to most methods available, at least you get to earn some. But like what most have mentioned, it is definitely waste of time and energy as the time you click, spend energy and earn outweigh all the costs that comes with it.

While you may have the patience and determination to earn, I highly suggest that you channel it into a different method which is more convenient, rewarding, and easier on your end. Being hardworking does not necessarily equate to being successful- try exploring other methods this time OP since you know better! Good luck!

I know faucets well, and I can tell you that as an ordinary user you will not collect anything more than dust, and I mean the fiat value of what you get. You can earn a little more if you own a faucet that you know how to monetize, or if you find a faucet that has a generous ref commission and start collecting referrals.

In addition, it's a very dishonest world with a lot of scammers - and the recent exit scam came from the very popular microwallet service ExpressCrypto, which reportedly had a hardware failure without the possibility of repair.

Thank you all!
Nakamura12: well, I'm on several faucets already, including Cointiply (I'm up to $2.49 already! ), so my intention is to cash out as soon as I reach $5. We'll see...


Well, I hadn't. Reading up on them now. I'll probably end up signing up on a few, see how they go. Thanks for the tip.


Couldn't open the link...
I'll work on it in a moment...

Joining crypto faucets isn't bad, unless if you'll get nothing from them. But yeah, we can't expect them it gives us much, not much as $1. if were not deemed doing complaint of receiving small amounts then, that's good. Maybe within a year of doing this, you can earn more...

I'm not sure how these faucets works, maybe someone had even try one of them.

Have you heard of GPT sites?
Look it up on Google. A few years ago they were very popular. And today I also see their activity. But I can't recommend just one paying site, as it's desirable to participate in most of them and have some tricks that people use to increase their payouts. In any case, you need to try.

Faucet is not bad since it's free and the reason why it's bad is it will take a long time before you can accumulate a decent btc before you can sell/convert it to fiat. I have tried many sites before like having a $5 minimumewithdrawal amount or a $10 minimum is that I reached the minimum but in the end, I didn't able to get it out from that site. Just visit legit stes that have faucets like freebitco.in where you can get free btc per 1 hour. Before, faucets are a thing but now, it is no more.

Thank you Mpamaegbu. Yeah, it sucks, but I don't waste my time complaining. I'm trying to find a way out.

Actually, it took me 3 1/2 days (I'm up to $2.16 now. ) and the minimal withdrawal is $5, so I'm hoping to withdraw, maybe, at the beginning of next week? Good thing is it pays directly in BTC, so I save the transaction fees...

Fatfork: yeah, I'm planning on doing all that. But right now money is getting tighter, so to spend all day staring at the ceiling is just not a good option for me.

I'm kinda hyper, people say I live in a constant sugar rush, so this is also a way to release some steam. I just don't want to get scammed...

Despite what you say, @BernyJB, I suggest you spend every free moment learning something useful, such as programming, or learning more about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Keep upgrading your account here at the same time, as it is obvious that you will advance quickly. You have already achieved the Member rank, and you will soon become a Full Member as you have already earned the required number of merits. This will give you more opportunities when it comes to signature campaigns. A signature campaign is a much better use of your time than a faucet, because you will not only earn more, but you will also gain new knowledge and learn something by participating in the discussions.

It's really pathetic reading through your comment. I empathize with you. Only those who've been through hard time will understand this. Luckily for you, I can see you're ranking up speedily and soon you should be able to get yourself into a BTC paying campaign. Don't lose hope, keep the faith up.

Straight off, I must tell you that faucets aren't really encouraging. You may not feel the pang if you just play it like a game, casually. But if you rely on it to earn a living you will realize that it's a waste of time and data. I bet it took you over a week to even get the $2.14. What's the withdrawal requirement from that site? I bet you may not even be able to withdraw until it gets to over $20 and that could take you over two months. It's really tasking, going the way of faucets.

Thank you noorman0, I'll check it out.

About my internet bill, I'm good. I don't have internet.
Every day I come to a nearby Starbucks store to use their connection, so Internet and electricity are free. I'm somehow "working" while I'm here, thanks to a friend who's lending a hand. That's (barely) paying the bills. What faucets afford me is money I can't spend on food, and at the same time money I can get crypto with, which is the other major hurdle I'm facing.

I got what you meant from the start. And what I'm worried about is that the faucet will further make your monthly bill increase while you who are unemployed constantly turn on your computer to claim income that will not be worth it. If you are employed, the first thing you need to expect is that the income from your work should not only cover the costs of doing so, but also have more left over as your profit.

I found a casino site that gives a faucet every 5 minutes if your balance is empty here. You can use it to play and increase your balance until you reach the withdrawal limit. To be honest I've never withdrawn and don't know if it works without a deposit first.

Thank you, that helps!
As far as getting hired, I'd be happy if I was hired to keep the fires of hell going right now. But I have been actively looking for pretty much anything that pays, and haven't had a single interview in more than a year and a half, so I'm not holding my breath.
This gives me a chance to do something, bad as it may be, to at least start.

Freebitco.in is pretty much the only one I remember that still exist today that is legit as far as I know.

As for faucets being a waste of time, yea.. I understand what you're saying because I'm also currently in a 3rd world country. But with that amount of money earned I'd rather just get hired as a virtual assistant instead; or a encoder, or a translator, or heck, I'd rather work at McDonalds. Pretty much any job/gig is better than faucets lol.

The point of having faucets is not to have free money but to get the feel of bitcoin and how it generally works.... you can not get rich from faucets but if say you picked up some free coins off a faucet over 10 years ago, you would agree with me that those free coins would be worth a fortune at todays rate as getting 0.001btc was super easy.

Thank you both for the replies.
As I said, that's not what I'm looking for.

I'm doing my best to add to the forum, but my knowledge of cryptocurrency is limited. When I started, I read a blog by somebody that claimed he had joined a signature campaign as a newbie. That didn't happen. Ever since, Signature campaigns seem to be getting ever more scarce, ever more demanding, and paying less by the minute.
I'm learning python programming. But the course's name would've been more accurate if instead of saying "all you need to program in python" said "all you need to print shit on the python shell". I love it, but I'm far from ready to start working on it.

I'm also bilingual. Tried to start translating (English-Spanish), but that didn't work out either.

About the "waste of time" thing, if the alternative is to spend your time doing nothing, then working for what you consider "peanuts" is far from wasting anything.

Can I survive on $8.56 a month? No, I can't. But I can wet a pinkie on the crypto pool, and right now I can't, and couldn't do it if I was a millionaire.

PLEASE: I need to know which faucets are good/bad/scams. I already know they are, RIGHT NOW, the only suitable option I have.

I didn't know about the Micro Earnings board. Sorry about that.

$2.14 x 4 weeks = $8.56, can you survive that amount? I just hope that it's enough to cover your electricity and internet costs.

Faucet sites are widely shared on "Micro Earnings" board, but no one recommends any of the best. As you have said yourself, the main reason is a waste of time. People will advise you to offer your skills/services which at least can provide higher income and efficiency than faucets.

Truth be told faucet is a simple definition of waster of time, you will waste your precious time which could have been used investing on yourself but faucet will left you with no choice but unending surveys which will also require your data and thirdly after efforts been invested you get peanut or nothing at the end because some result to scam.

It is only advised that novice who don't have the knowledge can make use of faucet which serve as a demo account or warming up before launching into the real world of crypto, although some times back, faucet have been said to be a little reliable but gone are the days. I will advise you to source for fund and invest in crypto provided that you have the knowledge, its now up to you on how you can earn the start up capital either by menial jobs or by seeking from family and friends and start investing or trading.

Ok, so I'm a newbie, I've been trying for months to start investing in cryptocurrencies, and, so far, nothing even remotely good is happening.

Just to be clear, I'm well aware of what most think of crypto faucets. It makes sense, for somebody living in the US or any other developed country, to not "waste their time" on them, as you can make a lot more money just by trimming your neighbour's grass, if needed.
But some of us aren't that lucky. In my particular case, I have been unemployed since April 2020, and I'm really scraping the bottom of the barrel here. Meanwhile, even the chance of me getting a crappy job (which at this time would be a blessing) at my age and in a country which has been economically ravaged by the pandemic is slim in the best of cases.
To make things worse, even if I did get a job, the law here only allows internet transactions to be made with credit cards, so I could have a truckload of money, and still would be unable to use it.

So last week I started reading about crypto faucets. Got into Cointiply, and since last Sunday I have managed to raise a grand total of $2.14 ( ), which is very little by any means, but it's much better than nothing.

So this thread is intended to get some information from you, more knowledgeable guys, as well as to help other newbs that may be in a similar situation.

The question is: Which faucets do you guys recommend or not?
I'm looking for reliable information on honest sites where I can make a buck. I don't mind working for what most would consider "peanuts". What I don't want is to waste my time for nothing, or to get to those "deposit $$$ to get $$$$$" scams.

I have come up with this site: https://cryptofaucets.cash/2021/02/01/best-free-bitcoin-faucets/ that lists 27 faucets as "the best ones". How trustworthy is it? Do you have any experience in any of those faucets?

Thank you all in advance.
