Topic: Faucets are real waste of time??? - page 2. (Read 1337 times)

I agree that Faucets are the stepping stone of newbies to BTCitcoin. I actually started there, not claiming 24hrs per day but only during my free time. Maybe the reason why several people see faucet a waste of time is because they knew other ways on earning Bitcoin with much higher profit (Ex. Signature campaigns, Trading) and/or because faucets already lowered their rewards unlike before. Yet, I still appreciate what faucets can give to me even I wasn't able to claim there often these past few months. That small amount I claimed and saved from faucets before gave me a higher profit today since bitcoin already have a bigger value. Still, thanks to faucets, especially to those that I used that were trusted and high paying ones

Yes they are. If you keep clicking 24h/day you will only get a couple dollars if you are lucky.

There are too many faucet killer bots too. It is was already impossible to get anything from faucets before and now you can't even find a decent paying one.

before when i was just starting i spent my whole time in faucet because i thought im gonna make some good profit and then i realize i dont even earn a penny in one day lol 

Ive never wasted my time with faucets but my friend has , hes spent days and days collecting faucets and all he got was dust amounts. To me it is no where near worth the time. Id earn more by going over time and searching for loose change on the street and then converting that to bitcoin. All its useful for is to get something into your wallet to show a balance of anything other than 0. There are easier ways though.

Haha! That is funny. Though, I don't see it getting that high.

I still find them useful. Sure, there are better ways to earn, but sometimes you cannot do any of them. Others, you can work online while you do some faucets.

Funny thing is many of those who say it is a waste of time, are expecting Bitcoin to get to 10,000 $ (in which case the "tiny ammounts" earned through faucets would be worthwhile).

Personally i found faucets very useful when i started using bitcoin i knew that they were paying only a few pennies of course but i was satisfied while i was receiving my first btc payments.
But i still use some faucets because i have many referrals and i enjoy a decent passive income,so i would say that they are a waste of time only for people who are not new in bitcoin and are not able to get referrals.

I only faucet from those who use the reCaptcha antibot things, they are quicker to fill out. I have a list I go through.

Of course there's the exceptional great page that uses Solve Media (which I detest), but it's worth it, because I know they pay.

I also respect your opinion my friend, because it is undoubted that faucets can be very useful for newbies trying to get their first coins. But to be honest, most faucets decreased greatly their rewards when BTC reached around $400 last year, and nowadays most of them are paying very ridiculous amount of satoshi, their captchas are increasingly difficult and every day you need to spend more time to get the same satoshi, so I have decided to stop my faucets activity several months ago.

This is true. I suggest learning some sort of programming language.

nowadays I see them as a waste of time . the payout rates declined so bad after google adsene banned faucets because it contradicts their policies. so if there is no high revenue for the owner, there is no high rewards. so after wasting many hours, you may not be able to make a dollar worth of bitcoin in a day. it is better to invest this time in learning a new skill that one can earn btc with it

Advertising website faucets is really good, payments can be good, I have used faucet satoshis gained to do this, not ponzi money. thats for marlboroza's benefit

Just make sure, you do not see the same advert doing the rounds, find a new faucet then advertise it, worked for me many times, great passive income.

Yea I think faucet site is waste of time if you only want calm faucet but if you advertise faucet sites it can be very profitable.It is best to advertise faucet sites in revenue shares sites which accept bitcoins because you earn money and you get free advertising space.

For newbie people i think their is no wasting of time happening to them since they get free money their for startups and also so by that they can have capital to explore more the other sides of bitcoin in where they can earn more benifits with their very hard earn money from it. But if you are actually a semi pro and looking up for faucet well i can say its totally waste of time since you can earn that money easily in many various ways and earn with it good rather than faucet earnings wich give the big whales little earning.

Iam wasting about 1hour every day on faucets but its only some old working faucets like moonbitocin that i use.
Now a days iam clicking some ads on PTC sites to earn extra money for some african people.
I support them with my wee clicket satoshis so its no more time wasting for me to claim on faucets and ptc pages

kind regards

That ponzi satoshis went out to cloud mining got burned, the rest was from faucets.

And what about the negative trust do you not like? playing ponzis ?

What the hell are you talking about? I have found this address of yours:

https://blockchain.info/address/194kp7JSXkGMuJQjfXK4GCw3vLtFhy6fN7

With exactly this amount of BTC you just posted here. So, you have 1.47BTC, and you are claiming from faucets from 2015-01-22 15:35:33
So, its almost 19 months for 1.5BTC, and i see public note from site called earntomorrow, was that ponzi that you get some coins from?
Public Note: earntomorrow.com payment to Ray
Than public note from this "Withdraw to Racey from BitcoinField.Net - Most Trusted Investments In industry"
Public Note: Withdraw to king-racey from 14daily.com
Public Note: Withdraw to Invest1 from Profit12.com - 10%-12% Daily
You have negative trust, your bitcoin address is full of payouts from ponzi scam sites, and you are saying that this come from faucets?
Dont lie

This is just one of my wallets

Final Balance   1.47679498 BTC

Yes, complete waste of time. 

I found $1500 once in an old box of food jars. ;p

Only free if you're lucky, heh.

99% faucets are waste of time. Most of faucets have minimum rewards from 50-200 satoshi, now look, you need to open faucet, solve captchas and or antibot, c/p address, claim, close faucet, open new one, and for that you need minimum 1 minut. So, you can earn in hour around 3000-12000, depending what faucets you are using. If you use 1440 min faucets, you can get 1000-2000 reward, but they are all with hard captchas, boring antibots on all page, safety limits etc, so lets say you can earn 20000/ hour. Now, be real, 20K satoshi is 0.12$, if you claim 10 hours(sleep, work) you will earn 1.2$. WOW! Say to your life good by for 1.2$. Is your life worth of 1.2$? Or if you earn 5$ daily from faucet, is your life worth it? Not to mention bad sides of faucets like high traffic, cpu-ram destroyer, possible malware, identity trackers etc. I am using only 2-3 good faucets. Only thing I can agree that faucets are very good for people who are new in bitcoin industry.
And what is most important, you cant progress in faucets, you have your maximum daily earnings from them and thats it. You say you like faucets, i don't see what is there to like, solving captcha, geting 0.0005$, solving another captcha 0,0005$, solving captcha 0.0005$....


There is no such thing as free money
