Faucets are fun.

[ObscureBean]

Faucets aren't useless. They're a great way for newbies to earn their first Satoshis plus they're accessible to people of all ages. It can be exciting for seven year old who doesn't get a lot of pocket money to collect BTC from faucets and eventually have enough to afford a $1-$5 game on steam  

EDIT - or better yet, use the Bitcoin directly to buy a second hand console game from JJgames

They're so stupid, I could easily tell you to get a job but there are other things you can do online which will earn you alot more.

You're stupid!

Kidding, of course.

one reason being faucet provide free coins every hour 

Free coins every hour are cool, but it's totally misleading to call it coins...you do mean satoshi, free satoshi every hour - or every 5 minutes at xapo (check out the link in my profile).

Has anyone won a major lottery or pay from faucets? I've been getting 90%+ bonuses but no big jackpots. Anyone make it to 10,000 rolls on freebitco.in?

[Possum577]

Faucets are the best way to learn practically about How Bitcoin Works - without any investment. This is must and should for beginners.

At the same time, I know few people who live with Faucets!!  So don't underestimate Faucets.

These people you know who live with faucets - how old are they and where do they live in this world?

Let's be honest.

[flock123]

perhaps because the faucet provide free coins and gave many coins as you have many referrals

[BlueYozakuraBTC]

so this is a beginner too ?

Incredible!! How is this even possible? This must be due to tons of referals or something. If it is not so, I would love some tips 

Damn so would I! I've been doing apps by phone etc. Share the wisdom. I even saw one guy's video where he does a bunch back to back.

damn look at his address
https://blockchain.info/address/1LB8EJsDQZQt5X2EPHvKgHw1F66xLUUCj1

he also get from other weekly faucet 

[Honestman]

I thing the newbies go to faucet! The reasons are that they try to get some BTC and find out what it is! No one will just put in their own money to BTC at the beginning!

[mallard]

damn look at his address
https://blockchain.info/address/1LB8EJsDQZQt5X2EPHvKgHw1F66xLUUCj1

Are all of the coins in that address from faucets?

Checkout /r/beermoney for example.

Probably because people don't have time to work or maybe because they want to earn a few bucks in a couple minutes without spending much effort. And faucets are perfect for exactly that, earn money for small effort like captcha typing.

[b457]

Faucets could be useful for new users in the bitcoin space.
So they get a feeling how it is to receive bitcoins and how long (or short) the confirmation time is.

[bitjamz]

faucets are only worth the time if you can get alot of referrals

[Aggressor66]

Well, the best way to make the faucet worth your time is by referring people, unless you have the free time to hit all of the faucets out there every half hour, you’re probably not going to extract all the bitcoin you could out of them.
However, they’re free and it is possible to build up a decent amount of satoshi over time.

[tennozer]

Faucets are easy way to learn begining of bitcoin. Firstly, I earn my first satoshis from faucets and I will contunie to earn from them. There are so many faucets at the begining of bitcoin and they will be.

It's not stupidity but people often take part in faucets or captchas to spend some free time and earn BTC. Many of them have over 100 referrals and for them it's a good deal to make over $2-$10 daily. Yeah, it sounds like working for pennies but everyone has their own choice to make.

[wxa7115]

Personally, I used faucets to familiarize myself with the bitcoin technology, when I first began I read FAQS and some websites and it seemed that bitcoin was complicated, but after trying the faucets, receiving and sending money, I realized that bitcoin was extremely simple, and finally I was ready to put some money on it (not much thought).

[bitwarrior]

Faucets serves as a starter  experience for the noobs and get acquainted with BTC. Others use them for farming and get few satoshis along the way. A free and easy way of getting BTC. I also started playing BTC with the introduction of faucets.

[afriezalie]

People use faucet to learn more about bitcoin. For stater it's the best way to learn and recognize about bitcoin for the first time. It's also an alternative way to try your luck beside of gambling
