I think some still use faucet cuz it's much easier way to earn bitcoins(especially to newbies) compared to other tasks like trading, freelancing, etc. Personally, I use faucets only when I have an extra time to earn some little bits

Faucets is a good way to get in to Bitcoin if you are a newbie and cannot afford to buy Bitcoins or mine them. Use that in combination with a signature campaign and as a new starter you are on your way to Bitcoin land.

This is a totally good explaination for way to bitcoin land. My way was like that and now I learn something about bitcoin by using faucets. Because I learned bitcointalks forum while I was looking for new faucets and then I sign up here and reading reading then learning.

Yeah, faucets aren't only a place for free money, it's where you can get just enough bitcoin to send your first transaction or two.

I always like to imagine the day when we look at 1000 Satoshi in the same way we now look at this 1.00000000 in BTC value. If/when BTC does get mass adoption, then small faucet money now may be worth a fair bit more.
Faucets are a safe way to begin using BTC without any potential loss.

Well, there is the aspect of building up a lot of dust transactions in your wallet, then the next transactions to include all those inputs are going to take forever to confirm or cost a lot of money in transaction fees.

Good point. I know of a friend that is waiting for just that. Plus, you can optimize faucet claims by opening several faucets at the same time and claiming while others load, or having a selection of faucets with fast loading captchas (solvemedia typed captchas are a lot faster to load). You can also optimize more using some other altcoins.... many faucets are good but usually only 4 or 5 are really good and more worth the time. Taking other cryptos (litecoin, doge) into account, you can save some time on getting more value. All that takes work, but you can be a more professional fauceter optimizing all that.

You're earning a couple pennies worth of bitcoins; hardly any amount to considering getting any at all.

If life gives you lemons, make orange juice and leave them wondering how you did it.

Come on guys this is wasting time. I would rather buy 0.5 BTC for $100 and save myself 6 months of faucets solving captchas. Then I would stick these 0.5 BTC in a cold storage and wait that 1 BTC goes through the roof. The only person that earns from faucets is the faucet owner since the people keep bringing traffic to his faucet/web site. Everything else is just not worth in my modest opinion.

And while you earn your $100... and wait that BTC rise....in some place, far away, someone will be fauceting Yes, I understand your point, and your are quite right, if you have a job to get those $100. But many do not even have it. Why do not faucet for a month, then start trading and maybe have those $100 two months later? Or perhaps learning about faucets enough and running their own faucet? Not easy, but not impossible either. A faucet worker is the best person to run a faucet later.

true. People don't realize that in some countries a minimum wage is around 1USD per hour. You can get more from a sig campaign.

The most of the people who use faucet are beginners in bitcoin and hope that with this method will have some bitcoin. Then are attracted by the free money. faucets give free bitcoins and this have a psychological effect that make them to use their time to take those free "money".
I use faucet to cover my transaction fee which,if I pay from my hard earn bitcoin,gives me heartache:D besides faucet are good source of some free satoshi in your free time

I literally created my first wallet this week and started using faucets last night. I am quickly coming to the realization that it isn't worth my time. I may do a few more rounds to hit the faucetbox threshhold and get my first bits in my wallet, but that may be the end of my 1 day faucet experience.

Who doesn't have any money, not just those $100, he is better off hitting those captchas and faucets than sitting on their a** and doing nothing! I guess their is no case unique for anything in this world, the same goes for the faucets!
