I've seen some people say that faucets are a waste of time. I've found the perfect balance that proves them wrong.
As part of your balanced Bitcoin diet you would be foolish to ignore especially the better of the faucets available to the community.
How to use faucets properly:
1)Find a system that pays you interest to hold BTC with them.
2) Find 5 or so faucets with decent rewards that pay on the hour in BTC or alt coins as well.
3)Funnel all of your winnings into the Faucet, wallet or account that pays interest.
4) Watch as you start making thousands upon thousands of satoshi a day.
That's the true way to take advantage of micro earnings.
It's weird to see people putting it down, it's free money you don't even have to search for on the streets and perfect for a long term investment strategy.
Doing this in addition to mining and buying will mean you will grow your bitcoin amount quickly.
(an example is combining the moon faucets with the freebitcoin ones and or Bsave)
(For the people that aren't actually reading my responses i'll add. I don't sit on my computer all day, I hit these faucets at work, hanging out at the bar, hiking in nature, practicing martial arts etc using my phone. i'm not chained to my desk, it's the beauty of these faucets while accruing interest)
Thoughts, discussion welcome.
1)Find a system that pays you interest to hold BTC with them.
This makes total sense, but it's risky. Users need to ask themselves: "Where does this person finds the interest to pay me? Is he able to keep paying me for a long period? -etc"
Nothing lasts forever, except taxes.
2) Find 5 or so faucets with decent rewards that pay on the hour in BTC or alt coins as well.
Small cap alts have high risk, but are highly rewarding in case if you're accumulating them for a while and get lucky to exit on a pump. Risky, again
3)Funnel all of your winnings into the Faucet, wallet or account that pays interest.
Same as #1
4) Watch as you start making thousands upon thousands of satoshi a day.
What happens if the "faucet" gets hacked, owners run away with money, database gets lost, insert_reason_here?
Someone who was claiming faucets in early 2015 as a hobby and kept their coins, actually made quite a lot of money.
I know someone who was doing this, and bought a car for $5000.. FROM FAUCETS.
There's factors here of course, like price fluctuation, but yes, who knows, maybe someday 1 satoshi will be equal to 1 cent
I agree with you 100% that people shouldn't doubt the power of faucets, but there's safer investment options than % paying services.
I'd personally invest money in altcoins that have true technology behind them, good developers, who solve issues when they arise, a healthy community that uses the coin(s) for a purpose/service.
(Not that this isn't risky, but here you control your own wallet/money and can exit whenever you like)
There's "faucets" that actually pay a lot of bitcoin if you use them correctly as intended.
Just, DYOR before putting your own money into someone else's wallet
Wish you good luck
Good response. Can you elaborate on the "faucets" that pay a lot of bitcoin and using them as intended? It's made me curious.
