How Many BTC Have You Made From "Free BTC" Type Sites?

[cambda]

I just looked at the updated list of bitcoin faucets and similar sites that payout bitcoins for entering a captcha(sp?), watching ads, etc. I remember the days when only a few sites like this existed. The payouts (when bitcoins were worth less) were something like .0005BTC/an hour on some of the sites. I tried to remember to claim my free BTC as often as possible, but I'd forget a lot.

Anyways, I was just wondering if anyone really took advantage of sites like this back when they were offering higher payouts, and if they gained a significant amount of BTC from the sites. There has to be someone...

I was requesting coins from free faucets from early 2012 and stopped early 2013. It was not uncommon to receive 0.01 daily with little effort like 30min.  I made most from dailybitcoin 1+ BTC (thank you), and coinad 0,5+ BTC (thank you), lower sums with many others. From Dragons Tale alone 2+ BTC (thank you). Total almost 5 BTC. I still holding these as Im Bitcoin collector

much less than 1 BTC

i decided it was a waste of my time even in early 2012

currently I am doing total work on these free faucets and captcha typing work both are good for me right now

Having ground out a little "faucetfoo", my experience is that it often feels like trivial work for very trivial pay, but by Jove! it's "free money" after all.

Every 1000 satoshi here or 4000 satoshi there that you grind out will eventually add up (minus transaction fees ), especially if the bitcoin exchange rate advances to something like 10k satoshi per 1 USD*.

* It doesn't sound as out of this world if you express it that way, rather than as 10k USD per 1 BTC.

There is never any need for ever paying any transaction fees unless you want to, all you need is some bigger input amount of coins(like 1+ btc) that have been resting for a while in your wallet to ballance out the dust you send with the same transaction...
But i guess you would earn better by having that 1+ btc invested in Ukyo loan or something like that than having it tied up in your wallet for days to remove a single transactions fees..lol

I did earn 4 btc from a few faucets on the net back in 2012 or a few minutes time a day for a couple of weeks before they started to reduce the gifts they gave, and on Dragon's Tale if you count that as a "Free BTC" site i have of course earned way more than 4 btc there...

Pretty much nothing. Mined 0.01 with an radeon 6770 in april.
Gambled and lost, I was left with 0.0005. I've put that on an exchange and made it into 1.1 BTC 

 0.0005 to 1.1 is nice result. Funny the 0.0005 should be used on transaction fee when transfering to exchange  leaving you with nothing

I gave up after making only 0.0003 lol

I gave up after making only 0.0003 lol

Primedice alone giving 0.00003 per minute solving captcha. You have to gamble it for bigger amount, but it is still 10 captchas. You made not much effort

about 10mBTC.

I have gained 0.06~ BTC so far. around 0.02 BTC from faucets and around .04 BTC from https://coinchat.org/ so far. I have only been working at this for a few weeks.

Seems about 1 BTC in a year is doable, but I doubt many have this patience. I dont after about 0.025 from free faucets   

[golikcoin]

0, faucets are not worth my time.

[faiza1990]

I reach almost near to my 1 btc and hope will done soon this milestone in next few days 

[cowandtea]

20mbtc as of now, seems like not worth my time at all.

[viriat0]

much less than 1 BTC ! Hard WORK! 

[just_me]

I never made any at all. ZERO

I did go to one faucet, but it was empty


I reasoned you had to have a really good anti-virus to go around to all those sites like that, and it wasn't worth the risk.

[Ardenyham]

I reach almost near to my 1 btc and hope will done soon this milestone in next few days 

Nice, my target is 1 btc as well, but Im far away from it, currently about 0.22 

Hopefully next year !
