This statement was actually a quote from someone in a Telegram group.  Apparently some tokens promise to pay you crypto as a reward for doing stuff, like watching videos or ads. Sounds great, right? However, sometimes it also involves you downloading an app/program, which could give you malware and steal your cryptos!

Do you think crypto faucets are a great way to get free tokens or is it a total scam?



I started here but stopped after a month because it's useless and just a waste of time so many ads, so many redirects and you can only get $0.0001 no wonder only newbies do this, it's better to do clixsense or neobux than this worthless faucets.

Faucets are worst than joining airdrops,because in airdrops you will still have a little chance to get profits,while in faucents you wont have any,that is why i am more focused in bounty campaigns,than joining these things,websites that asking to download or watch anything is morelikely scams because they are just using people for their own benefit.

Cryptocurrency keeps increasing as well as blockchain so if you going to us me why there's alot of faucet then probably they want to give freebies to advertise their coins. but first comes first you should be more vigilant on your private keys and your data on computer, coz if somebody access your computer all your money will lose. so i don't recommend faucet participate more on bounties or airdrops.

Yes it is,do not waste your time with these website because you wont get paid ,it is worth than joining free airdrops because airdrop tokens can still have some value compare to these faucets which wont pay you not unless you worked for years and you've got plenty of rewards,spend your time to bounties to get big rewards in exchange to your effort.

Not all faucets first requires one to download any app. Some are just the captcha solving faucets. But the point is that faucets don't really pay one anything. I can boldly say this from experience. And most times also at some point while solving the faucet, it will tell you that your ip  address changed and you lose everything you've gained so far and be back to square one.

Back in the early days of bitcoin till year 2016 faucet are the best way for newbies to learn how bitcoin transaction work but it has been corrupted this days and genuine faucet are not profitable I.e it a waste of time. However, 99% of faucet provider or someone who promised to reward for doing stuff, like watching videos or ads are scam this days.

I'm going to take whatever comes after this with a grain of salt. Anonymous/random users in some undisclosed Telegram group are not regularly a reliable source of information.

Not "apparently", some of them genuinely do. Is your accusation that there is no such thing as a paying faucet? There are plenty of legitimate faucets, so to answer your question and respond to the quote, No they are not scams. They just are not worth anyone's time. Don't download programs you don't recognize and can't verify, problem solved?

Do you think crypto faucets are a great way to get free tokens or is it a total scam?

Faucets back in the day used to give out multiple Bitcoin, so if you had held onto them then you can imagine it would've been very profitable. At their current rates though, and without tremendous change in the price of Bitcoin or cost of consolidating inputs then faucets are basically just a waste of time. Often times the amount of coin you receive from a faucet is going to end up costing you money, because it is an extra input into your transaction. You have to really manage your inputs, and faucets are horrible in exactly this area.

not all faucets are scam, because there is also a faucet that can indeed give you a valuable gift. but should be more detailed in seeing it, because very few successful faucet.

When I tried faucets months ago, I was so disappointed because there are so many things and tasks to do with so little payout. I think you may be right too, there are also those malware always.

Yes a lot of faucets are scammed, but some of them are not, faucets are used for you to earn crypto in the easiest way, but when a faucet ask you to download anything then you need to check, don't got hacked and get infected by virus, usually when I saw a faucet ask me to download I will skip, I won't jeopardize my account with the little money from the faucet

How about 1% it's LEGIT?


Lol I think not all Faucet are scam. You must be diligent to make profit from it. It's very wasted time for someone which are too lazy to do this kind and they will not get profit from that. But I still prefer Bounty. It's more profitable.

I am still surprise that peoplestill participate in faucet, IMO, I don't think faucet is still rewarding, there was a time that you can earn close to 100ksat per hour just doing faucet but that is not possible again because the value of BTC has grown up. All the faucet I participated in then were paying the only issue I had then was that one of the  online wallet I was using end up being a scam site

It is a part of a journey in the crypto world where most of the newbies participate in faucet to earn free bitcoin or some other coins. I have done the same thing and quickly found it to be a waste of time.

You can read my "old" 3d here, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2549332.0 the faucets on this list are 100% legit and they pay, you can transfer money from the microwallet to your wallet.
Other faucer are very scammy and risky. Those are the only enjoyable/safe in my opinion.
And yeah NEVER INSTALL suspicius wallet on your pc, if you really want doing so, install a virtual machine, a free one can be found here -> https://www.virtualbox.org/, in this way if you will be scammed, only the virtual machine will be infected and you can delete it and install a new one.

sir i think its a great way to get free coins in some legit or lets say nice faucet, but when i try it.. it give a mite every single hour.. and the profit is very low and its not worth my time, then when you say it scam i agree also to it sir.. coz some of my friend were investing in a faucet to increase their hash rate.. and at the end the site has been closed.. and that way they were scammed.. better you should do some research 1st before you try to download something.. in the end ur the one who will have a future or youll be the one to be lose.. thank you so much sir.. good day and God speed...

I don't see why this faucets exists when they are just scams. I think nobody ever wanted to block them for good. It sad how people are tempted to pay for a larger btc reward which results into nothing. People are sad about it by this sites still keep existing. Hope they will stop at their own will because they knew they were not doing good.

I also try to join in faucet when I was a newbie but yes that's a waste of time ,it's better to trade your money just study all about trading than waste your time with nothing.

   I think so because I have never heard that anyone got bitcoin or any other currency from these faucets. People just waste their time in such sites. The best to make money is only this signature campaign. But here you will have to give time and be patient for a long time. I don’t believe in any faucet. I don’t want to waste my time after these scams.

Faucets are a total waste of time and I agree with the statement that 99% faucets site is scams. Years ago I tried some faucet, but after researching a few hours I got the game. I left the faucet alone for other hungry users  Smiley Anyway, you can try faucets only if you don't have any other skills to grab cryptos and have a lot of free times.
