Well the main purpose is to get people excited about Bitcoin and to spread the currency as the price of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies continue to soar a couple of years. after the initial launch a ton of these different faucets have been developed to offer you different rewards, in the form of satoshis each time that a task is completed.
