It's not something that exists only in the US, because it has existed in the EU for more than 10 years (although I'm not sure if all countries are included). All plastic/glass and aluminum packaging is returned in every shopping center, all in order to protect the environment. In the beginning, there was a lot of such packaging everywhere, but today that is no longer the case because everyone wants their money back.

Nothing is forgotten, the faucets still exist, the numbers have changed, and the rewards of 5000 satoshis that were before, are now 5 or 10 satoshis, with the fact that every faucet has at least one short link that you need to pass + captcha + antibot links before you get award. In addition, such an activity only seems to be free, because you are investing your time, which is extremely limited and expensive.

I don't know what kind of crypto mining you are talking about, but it was never free because it always required a device + energy + time, and nothing has changed in that regard until today. Do you want us to somehow shut down all BTC miners and have everyone mine again with their personal computers - or do you think we should somehow tokenize crypto mining since you think every problem can be solved with a token?

OP, I think you live in the US and if so, you probably know there are states with so-called "bottle bills" which might be an unfamiliar concept to many here.  To anyone who doesn't know, basically if you buy a soda or water or a carbonated drink of some kind, you pay a $0.05 deposit on the can or bottle, which you can later recoup by taking it back to a store that sells whatever brand it is.

Well every time I'm out, instead of seeing junk on the side of the road, on sidewalks, or wherever, I see nickels.  They're everywhere.  In fact, it's a very popular way for homeless people to get a little pocket money.  But man, if only there was some way of collecting all of them just in my town alone.  It'd probably be a week's pay at my regular job, and the supply just keeps renewing itself.

Anyway, there's also collecting scrap metal, which is basically what those bulldozers represent (unless they can be resold to someone who needs one).  Lots of people are scrappers full-time or just do it as a side hustle.  It can be lucrative if you're willing to put in the effort.

Maybe if in my country, get a legal asset in accordance with the law when caring for and empowering a plot of land to produce benefits from that land for a certain period, then legally the land will fully belong to those who care for it, but this law applies during the development growth arrangement. country, (indirectly it is a legally free asset that can be obtained).
If we talk today, I don't think there is anything else, except for working with the government to get usufructuary rights from state facilities with certain rules and no ownership rights except usufructuary rights in profit-oriented empowerment cooperation.

In Crypto, it is common to get free assets with certain rules both in airdrops, faucets and mining. Just as in competitions/celebrations that are broadcast on TV/social media on weekends which give away prizes for free, we can get free assets in the form of vehicles or money or anything else by simply following the easy requirements steps.

In my opinion, this depends on whether the owner of the goods/assets wants to give it or not. By law, if the owner of the goods has released the goods from their status of ownership, both junk and good goods, then anyone who wants them has the right to get these assets for free.

There are assets that fall under the "low supply" and "low demand" category that can generally yield a good profit if you hold onto them for a certain amount of time or find someone with a good interest in them. Two examples of these could be vinyls and grand pianos - but it doesn't stop there - there's many other items that can be resold for a higher price.

I've seen huge victorian writing desks (that look like they're made similar to antique grand pianos) get listed for between $4000-$16000+. Grand pianos themselves (and organs) are either worthless or worth thousands (and sometimes both at the same time).

There's then the opportunity of transforming things into other items that are either usable or not. There's a decent number of old busses that get turned into campervans, a few airplanes that get turned into hotels. If you make something saught after and turn a profit, you might just be on to something.

One day my uncle told me the following story.  He (the general director of a limited liability company) sold the production shop to the buyer (joint stock company). 

The buyer's lawyer included a condition in the contract that the production hall must be completely cleared of industrial equipment at the time of transfer to the buyer.  For violation of this condition, the seller organization had to pay a huge fine.  After signing the contract, my uncle realized that he would not be able to clear the production hall of industrial equipment by the appointed time.  What to do?!!! 

Suddenly, he had a great idea....  He posted an ad inviting other city organizations to buy this equipment from him.  He set a low selling price, but set one condition - the buyers had to dismantle the equipment and pick it up from the production shop on their own (on a self-delivery basis). 

By the appointed day, the workshop was completely free of industrial equipment.  Uncle sold the production shop, avoided a fine and made money selling industrial equipment.

I don't think there is any method to acquire a valuable asset for free, except you are prolly inheriting them from your family or something. In the case of this earthmoving equipments that are old and prolly spoilt, no one is going to give them to you for free unless they know you would spend a fortune in making it work again, and it prolly might not, or it could spoil again after a few weeks/months of your repair. Thus i don't think you are even getting them for free per se, because you are definitely going to put in time and resources into something that might turn out unsuccessful.
Airdrops and faucets are still around i guess, just that people don't see it as being worth their time, it is still along the lines of something that is free would prolly not be worth anything for you. Many of these airdrops also request people to submit their data, thus exchange of ones data for worthless coins is never a bargain.
Do you mean cloud mining? Turns out it is mostly a scam nowadays to enrich the scammer running/providing the service.

Above we have an example of how to acquire assets valued in excess of $50,000 for "free".

There are abandoned bulldozers, excavators and construction equipment in a remote location on a mountain. Which the legal owners are willing to part with for free, to anyone who is willing to haul them away. The catch is the scrap metal value of the construction equipment isn't enough to make the project feasible. To turn a profit, everything has to be repaired and restored to be fully operational and sold at market value.

There are probably plenty of abandoned vehicles and motorcycles which might be acquired for free, which fall under a similar heading. In many cases, the cost of parts and repairs could be valued more than the vehicles themselves are worth. But of course, there can be exceptions as illustrated in some recent discovery channel reality shows revolving around buying and selling used goods and building junkyard empires.

Are there good methods of legally acquiring free assets people would like to share?

In crypto, we have airdrops and faucets which have somewhat fallen by the wayside and become forgotten it seems. Is there a way to revive interest in faucets and airdrops? How could it be done, how would you do it? Mining also used to be a good method of acquiring free assets. Is it possible to revive crypto mining?
