bitcoin faucets ( and any other crypto faucet ) seem to become more and more rare , at least almost every top website are thinking of the ways to remove it or substitute it with promotions
Stake has removed it completely and have Boost available to VIP players , which is something similar to the faucet but depend on how much you lost/wagered for a set period of time
Bitsler introduced their own coin BTSLR that can be claimed instead of bitcoins and you participate in daily and weekly competitions and can win prizes
many other smaller websites are reducing the claims or removing the faucet altogether , it is very hard to balance the marketing faucets bring vs the abuse and money you spend
sometimes it is impossible to sustain such a model when the freebie lovers are outnumbering the normal player and the faucet becomes a burden
for a player a faucet is a very welcome option , but too many are treating it as a source of income , only playing with the casino's money
Those who only play with the casino money are not the real gamblers. They are just the time passers who want to feel the taste of gambling without depositing their real money. I think new casino should include the facility of faucets for the real gamblers. This give us a chance to test the new gambling site without investment. Yes, you can limit the faucets to be like 10 faucets for each account and then faucets should be disabled forever.
not always , real gamblers use the faucet too
the difference is that they gamble their money when they can , when they cannot - they claim faucet and play
it is what almost impossible to do ,is both to cater to the returning players so they stay on the site even if they do not deposit
and to curb the potential abuse from the freerollers whose only dream is to make money from nothing and who never ever deposit or deposit 10-20$ only to withdraw them straight after
there is also this kind of abuse when they circumvent the minimal withdrawal restrictions by depositing the missing amount
so , basically , you claim faucet , win 30-40.000 satoshi and the game will not allow you to withdraw anything lower than ,say , 200.000 satoshi equivalent
abusers deposit 170.000 and withdraw 200.000 , pay comission 5-10.000 and get 20.000-30.000 satoshi profit
many sites detect this sort of abuse and ban them , confiscating the coins but it is not an easy task
