I bet that many people back then were laughing at faucet users as they do today, but who knows how much a few satoshis (which is the average hourly reward nowadays) could worth in 2024?That's why I still believe that claiming from a few decent faucets is not always a waste of time, but also a good opportunity to own a good amount of money in a few years from now.
Is faucet claiming still a thing in 2017,i thought it is done and dusted,what are the best faucets out there at the moment and how much satoshi you could claim per minute,is it really worth it,i do not really think that it is worth the time to spend in faucets as you could make more trading than in faucets.

I dont agree that faucet claiming is good today as they pay of each faucet is lesser then penny and if you properly work on this forum then you can earn much more then what you can earn in faucet, faucet earning is only through affiliate bonus if not it is totally waste of time.

Damn, 5btc for free just by solving one captcha. This kind of thing is an addition that makes me regret on why I haven't discover btc 7 years ago. I wasted most of my time in front of computer in doing ptc on which I didn't get good result. I often searching "earn money online"  before and it was just ptc showing of in the results and some other scam stuff which you can earn only cents which the same price of btc by that time. Damn.

If you read through my post history here on bitcointalk. You will see I did a simple task of signing up under someone's referral link to DropBox for 5 BTC.

It is very crazy to think about.

That's how things went, and even though how many times we look back in the past, these realizations won't do any good since it's already in the past. What we could do is just see what things there is in the present and make something good come out of it.

Oh and the 10,000 bitcoin pizza in 2012...

Who knows, I dont think anyone thought BTC will reach to this heights one day, that too in just 7 years. ETH or LTC may cross BTC in the future as people are more interested in adapting those than BTC, it became an investment lately.

The fact is that we can not predict 100% accurate results. Recently, I read the news about market research that predicted that Bitcoin will reach $100,000 in next 10 years. Yes, even some altcoin might become extremely valuable in that period. However, I would prefer to keep my at least 70%+ investments in bitcoins in crypto investments.

Funny how life is Smiley 5 BTC for free in 3 sec... today people are working hard to earn 0.01 BTC

https://web.archive.org/web/20100703032414/http://freebitcoins.appspot.com/

Makes me so sad Sad Did you so the next year it was o ly 0.001 how come ? That's a massive drop. Sometimes I really wish I had bought that mining hardware and mined at a loss. That loss would become s huge profit as we all know. Shows what never taking risks can lead you.

Imagine you did these captions long ago and forgot the wallet Sad That would be the worst.

Batk then people didn't even know about bitcoin let alone having to waste 3 seconds of their precious life for 5 worthless pieces of virtual crap that nobody uses anyways? No thanks.

This is why you keep your minds open-minded. Don't focus on the old stuff. Look into the future.

Sometimes you don't even need to invest anything to it, just a few seconds and you might be rich.

Wish that faucet was still open. Lol
Yes, but at the same time, there are lots of instances where a person obtained a good number of coins and then he just squandered those coins buying something completely useless, or they just lost those coins or the password and now they don’t have a way to get access to those coins, it must be incredibly painful for those people to know they had a fortune in their hands and that they let it go.

That's a amusing thing to see knowing how much Bitcoin would be valued at some years later. It makes me wish I had paid more attention to the hype years ago.

Good point about not dismissing all faucets as a waste of time! I still stick to a very select few (okay, actually only two now) that only require a minute or so all together and I just mindlessly click every few days. Yes, they give out less and less but collectively, and with their values slowly gaining over time, they're worth a bit more than spare change these days.

I knew bitcoin since 2013 but even after those 4 years and i didn't understand how important it is and what possibilities it unlocked till the last summer. I started to collect my bitcoins since last year and they will stay in my stash till i achieve my financial goal, just like my gold bag. They ain't for sale till that moment comes.

There are 3 types of people who heard of bitcoin in the past:

1) The people who see bitcoin as a pump&dump scam which can collapse at anytime. While i agree with the p&d part, they are wrong on the scam part. If bitcoin was scam, it could have dropped to zero and never revived from there. Some of those people also think they lost the bitcoin train so they take their chances with alts. Understandable.

2) Those who know what bitcoin is and how it works. They spent considerable amount of time in the world of crypto yet they still have suspicions because of the volatility. They experienced gox crash, they suffered the loss from 1k$ to 200$ for years. Some of them lost their faith and dumped their stash for cheap and never looked back. I was one of those guys.

3) This is the real community which is formed by real hardcore bitcoiners. Those people never sell a satoshi. They buy bitcoins regularly every month and if the price makes a nose dive, they buy more than planned. They realized the potential long ago. The day when Gox was crashed, while everybody was bleeding like pigs and running around like headless chickens; those people were laughing. They pray for a crash. They don't pray for a price rise. Because they know the prices will rise eventually. What is unexpected for them is a price drop. Now i am one those.

And how I wish that I found out about bitcoin earlier .

The only way to know that will be to fully grasp the revolution that bitcoin signifies, it is very easy to say that we will hold the bitcoin but the truth is that many of the early adopters spent their bitcoin and now are doing the best they can to try to earn as many bitcoin as they can the same way we are trying to do it, so it is very likely nothing would have changed.

Why keep thinking backwards? It is characteristic of people who continued to fail, better think 7 years again because the price bitcoin will reach $10.000, then we can still profit $7000/btc.

Interesting, I do see that the price of bitcoin will increase but not to some gigantic extent.
So yeah look at history and take lessons from that. Investing in a technology like bitcoin may be a very wise one.
