Bitcoin Forum

Hello,
I’ve started to get interested for cryptocurrencies a few months ago. My goal is to make as much profit as possible, but without invest of “normal” money. So I started with faucet-sites, to get some coins for free.
First of all, I set up an account on CoinPot and FaucetHub. For that I needed an e-mail address and a password. Both are online micro wallets, on which is paid out the faucet-sites. From there you can transfer the coins to your own wallet, when you have reached the withdrawal limit.

- CoinPot: You click on a coin and select withdrawal. After 1-2 days the coins should be on your wallet. On CoinPot besides the coins you have a token too. You can multiply your tokens by games, or convert them to other coins. You can convert any coin in any coin on the website.

- FaucetHub: Many sites linked to FaucetHub store your claimed coins on their own website and you must withdraw them first from their site, than you can withdraw your coins from FaucetHub to your wallet. You have to pay a fee to withdraw your coins from FaucetHub. The more coins you withdraw, the lower is the fee.
According to reviews, FaucetHub has an only developer, I think he is German, who is very nice and answers the questions.

The faucet-sites CoinPot has linked 7 sites, where you can claim:
1. Moon Bitcoin
2. Moon Cash
3. Moon Doge
4. Moon Litecoin
5. Moon Dash
6. Bit Fun
7. Bonus Bitcoin

1.-5. are the same. There is a timer and a counter. The higher the timer, the higher is the counter, the more coins you can claim. You must wait at least 5 minutes until you can claim again. The timer goes up to one week, but I recommend claiming at least once a day, because you have a daily bonus up to 100%. Besides the daily bonus you have a mystery bonus, a random bonus between 1% and 100%. There is also a referral bonus up to 25%.
On Moon Bitcoin you have also the possibility to CPU mine, for that you get also a bonus. But I wouldn’t do that. To sign up to the sites you only need an e-mail address.

Bit Fun is for BTC and works the same like the moon sites. The timer isn’t shown, but you get more coins in the same time, than on Moon Bitcoin. On the site you can find some games to play, while you wait until the 5 minutes to claim are over. To sign up you need an e-mail address and a password.

Bonus Bitcoin is different. You can claim all 15 minutes, there is no counter like by the other sites. There are two methods to claim:
1. A fix average  amount (at the time between 36-38 Satoshi)
2. You can challenge your luck to get a random amount which is higher than the average. But I wouldn’t recommend that, because the most time it’s lower than the average.
Basically the second method is selected. To unselect it, you need to go under the claim button on “Change Claim Settings” and set the checkmark by “Always receive the average claim amount”. To sign up you need an e-mail address and a password.

The coins are sent directly to CoinPot after the claim. In one month I have made ca. 1,50€. It’s not much, but I have learned the use of the public key, the use of a wallet, how you send coins, etc.

FaucetHub supports 14 different coins and has many, many faucet sites. Many of them are apparently scam. Some sites I have tested and that aren’t scam:
- Dash-faucet.com
- Doge-faucet.com
- Ethereum-faucet.com
- Xmr-faucet.com
On these sites you can claim once all 4 hours after you have solved a captcha. To sign up you need an e-mail address and a password.

- Speedup-faucet.com
You can claim all 10 minutes. After you solved a captcha, you were redirected to a site where you must solve another captcha, than you must wait some seconds and you get the coins. It’s much expenditure, but the rewards are higher compared to other sites. After you claimed 15 times you get also a bonus. To sign up you need your public key.

- Kickasstraffic.com
You must watch an ad for a few seconds and then you get paid. To sign up you need your BTC public key.

- Allcoins.pw
This site supports 15 different coins. To get the coins you need to click on claim and solve the captcha. You can claim one coin all 5 minutes. The withdraw is specially here, because you can withdraw on FaucetHub with a little fee or directly do your wallet, but with a bigger fee.

Other sites where you can withdraw directly to your wallet are:
- Freebitco.in
- Freedoge.co.in
- Freeiota.de

On Free Bitcoin and Free Doge Coin you have to solve a captcha. In a month I have reached the withdrawal minimum of 50 Doge, but only 1/3 of the withdraw minimum for Bitcoin. But on FreeBitocin is a HI-Lo game, to increase your faucet claims.

FreeIOTA is new and was developed by a German. It works the same way like FreeBitcoin/Doge.

For a list with more Faucets you can check out this website: bestfaucetsites.com

How I look if a site is scam or legit?
By bestfaucetsites.com it’s written besides. Else I go to netbusinessrating.com and enter the name or address of the website in the search bar of netbusinessrating.com. If the website isn’t in the database, I google the name of the website with the word “scam” and look at the results.

If you are interested in cryptocurrencies and want to get started I think this is a good first way to start. For me for the start this sites are a great thing.

Is it really a good way to earn BTC like this?
I will say no until you cannot have any kind of job in which you can invest couple of hours.
If you have nothing to do for earning and plenty for free time then feel free to click and solve captcha. If you really like freebitco.in then I guess you can try cointiply.com too.

Faucet is never a good way to earn Bitcoin, at least for general purpose. You might want to use it to pay for evil points, and at the same time study about Bitcoin faucet or crypto faucet in general.

If you're looking for more serious profits, then you should look for other options.

Honestly, faucets no longer make "as much profit as possible without investing normal money" as they used back then. I tried them out even in 2016 and lost interest within one day.
They are a total waste of time right now.

Knowledge, however, is power. Reading about bitcoin, the whole concept of cryptocurrencies and crypto trading can lead you much further than faucets will ever.
I do watch daily youtube videos and read a few things about bitcoin weekly when I get time. I feel before the year ends. I will be able to share something here of my journey and how I achieved it through knowledge.

You can't get rich alone, but it's some free cents and dollars here and there if you have some free time. Could always get some interests or gamble for fun.

Uhhh no, faucet can't be a good way to start. I don't see a reason why would it be when all you do is solve captcha and still earn dust for spending a lot of your time when you could just be doing something productive.

A good way to start is to familiarize yourself with the basics and buy some coins yourself. Here's a good site to start learning about bitcoin: https://bitcoin.org/en/faq

Faucet are good to earn Bitcoin and you can get it free. But faucet is waste time.
In 2016 - 2017 is too easy to do faucet task. But now there are too dificult.

Like in a Faucethub.io there are many faucet to earn. But too many in there link we must register again in website, claim every minute,hours,days. You can't send your BTC to your faucethub if under 1000-2000 satoshi.
And there ads too many, maybe 1-2 pop up ads and captcha.

That amount of bitcoin is not worth your time. :)

Keep doing something practical to earn money,if bounty possible.

I don't agree with you, in past faucets was a good way to get crypto, but I also remember people saying that faucets is waste of time back then. Few years ago it was possible to earn decent amount of crypto few years. Faucet rewards were much bigger and it was easier to claim because faucets were clean. Now faucet payments are much lower, faucets is full of ads, popups, shortlinks and difficult captchas. In best times of faucets I was able to earn something like second wage monthly with help of active referrals. Offcourse, faucets never was the most effective way to earn crypto.
Oh yes, bounties is a great way to earn money, and it's definitely not waste of time (sarcasm).

check out my faucet ;)

How old is your site? Did you buy that scrip? Really nice and includes shortlink for better earnings. A fair amount to click as well. You should add it to a faucetlist. DOes Hcaptcha pay you when users fillout the captcha?
Have you heard of fun-captcha? It pays. Can you swap the one you use for it with ease? Or is it a bit complex?

Now I think your next step is trying to get yourself referrals to the sites you mentioned. Most of the crypto I make is from my referrals.  :)
