Nice write up. I agree, faucets are a great first step and Coinpot is perfect because it sets everything up for you. That's why I'm using it in my experiment.

I decided to model out how much you could make using Coinpot in 1 year. The amount you make depends on a variety of factors including: the original claim amount, the number of times you claim a day, the number of referrals you have, the number of times your referrals claim a day, loyalty days and a number of other factors, not to mention the price of crypto at the end of the year (as you say).

As long as you follow the incentive structure you can make make as little as $900 or as much as $2 million in 1 year. I walk through the model and reasoning here...
