Have you met the minimum withdrawal limit yet? I see a lot of newbies complaining about late withdrawals, but they have not yet reached the minimum withdrawal amount. Most of these withdrawals end up as "dust" in their Bitcoin address and when they want to use that money, the miners fees absorb most of that.
I would like to know from my fellow Freebitco.in users, how many of you have actually used the money that you withdrawn from this site.
In your opinion, what amount of Satoshi would be sufficient to make it worth it to withdraw it from Freebitco.in?

I think his problem was that fees suddenly jumped yesterday afternoon and the fast withdrawals got stuck. It looks like freebitco.in is spending the unconfirmed change for the next withdrawal so it caused a sort of bottleneck.
At the moment the slow withdrawal fee is 120 sats, so only 6 free rolls. If you want to avoid dust in your wallet you can always make a deposit and then withdraw to combine into a larger output.
#TheQuin, you are missing my point. I am saying once your withdrawal from Freebitco.in hits your Bitcoin address it gathers "dust" and in the long run, those small transactions increase your miners fees. If we are conservative with the average fees, you will still have to pay almost $1 as a average to use the "dust" that are collected from Freebitco.in over time.
Most people will only use the faucet for about 8 times a day, so that will mean that you would only get about 160 Satoshi per day. To be able to spend those Satoshi, you will have to cover your miners fees. {+/- $1 or 9606 Satoshi at todays price} to pay for the miners fees to shift those deposits to another address. {on-chain}
9606 Satoshi divided by 160 Satoshi = 60.0375 days to pay for the miners fees, before you can transfer your earnings on-chain to another address. - Let's say your timing is good, and the MemPool is almost empty, then you could pay $0.50 in miners fees and then you still need about 30days to pay for that transaction.
Tip : Your best bet, disable automatic withdrawal and wait until the amount accumulate enough Satoshi to cover the miners fees <on-chain> and then withdraw it from Freebitco.in. That way it will not increase the "dust" in your Bitcoin address and you can pay less in miners fees.
