Faucets - An Extra Way to get Free Cryptocurrencies

in bitcoin •  7 years ago 

Bitcoin (and by extension popular altcoins') faucets are simply not worth it these days.

You would literally earn fractions of cents per claim, and there is often a high payout threshold, such as a dollar or two (remember, fractions of cents).

The only ones who win are those who promote their referral links, as they earn per each referral's claim, the faucet owners (earning many dollars a pop thanks to the advertisement revenue from networks), and those who cleverly automate claiming somehow on a virtual proxy server, somewhere.

You're better off either freelancing for crypto, or exchanging currency or some type of medium (Amazon gift cards, for example) for them with other, trusted people.

It is amazing to consider/remember that there were once faucets that dispensed whole bitcoins, though!
