Everything starts from a small and that depends on how sure you are with what you do.
I see you want to use free ways to earn crypto as many people did.
It is not wrong if you still want to play with the faucet but you should not feel tired about what you did day by day until you reach the minimum payout.
Your lists on that site are good so you need to focus on collecting every reward from every faucet site because I am sure someday, you will have a chance to make more money.
It is better to earn a small amount than join a program that we do not know if they will pay or scam us.
Keep it up @OP while you still have time to get it.

I think the best advice in the thread was given to you by FatFork, but I'm not sure you understood it:

Fatfork: yeah, I'm planning on doing all that. But right now money is getting tighter, so to spend all day staring at the ceiling is just not a good option for me.

I'm kinda hyper, people say I live in a constant sugar rush, so this is also a way to release some steam. I just don't want to get scammed...

You seem to write well. If you have time to go to Starbucks and play faucets with their free connection, as well as to write posts in this thread, you could use that time and energy to write for a signature campaign. That doesn't mean staring at the ceiling, I don't know where you get that from. You are still a member but from full member I think you can easily make $30-40 a week.

Take advantage of the time you are going to Starbucks to write in the forum use faucets temporarily, as you have been told, in many cases you will not be able to pay even the fees with those amounts. However if you work on your Bitcointalk account you can earn good money. I earn $100-125 a week with my signature campaign... What would yo do with that money? Couldn't you live with that?

Think long term.

Thank you all for the replies!

What I don’t understand is your insistence on faucets. Let me be a broken record, you will more easily find a job that pays better even in you current situation than earn well in faucets, unless you intend to stick to this faucet thing for years.

No insistence. I'm using a faucet right now, it's a way to make a buck while I don't have another option. In any case, I don't intend to earn well, and I definitely don't intend to stick with it for years.
About getting a job, I've been job hunting since mid 2015 (yeah, even while I was working), and didn't even get a single interview. getting a job is not that easy everywhere. 

Don’t celebrate with your $2.49 just yet; it couldn’t even pay for the fees.

That I don't understand. AFAIK, fees are a percentage of what you invest, and in some cases they may be pennies. But OTOH, the faucet I'm in lets you withdraw directly in BTC to your own wallet (they do have a fee), so no exchange is involved.

Reading your posts, it seems to me that you have what it takes to write a more than decent news article, essay, review, or whatever content. There’s probably a lot of online writing jobs out there which pay you fairly.

I feel sorry for what you’re going through right now. I wish you all the luck in the world!

Thank you. The problem is I don't even know where to start, and I'm getting antsy.
I know 5 bucks is not gonna change much, but it's a start. I keep coming here every day, and talking about things I'm not doing, and it gets frustrating. When I just joined the forum I read a blog from a guy who joined a signature campaign as a newbie. I can't argue about that, but today, even for full members, signature campaigns are scarce.

Thank you, I did get it.

Thanks again. I'm not intending faucets as a full time job. I'm working towards joining a signature campaign, but as I can see it, I have another month (at the very least) before I rank up. The way I see it, even if cointiply ends up being a scam (I'll find out soon enough), it's just gonna be 5 bucks, and no actual money is coming out of my pocket.
We'll see...

There is one signature campaign that you could join (I'm not taking into account SCAM1xbit). Here you can follow them:

Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns [Last update: 22-Jan-22]

The WINZ.IO signature campaign had an open spot until recently. Keep a close eye in case another spots opens or another campaign starts accepting Member. You are not going to earn much but you will earn more than with faucets, and you will also gain experience. Later on, as you will be in a campaign, when you rank up it will be easier for you to start getting paid as a full member without having to apply or anything.

Don't even think of getting into the 1xbit campaign because you will be promoting a scam and you will be red tagged for it.

Thank you, I'll check them out.
Yeah, I know about 1xBit. Wouldn't touch them with a stick.

I have 2 questions maybe you can answer:

1. Can I run more than one signature campaign?

2. Once I joined a SC, can I leave it and go for another one, or I'm stuck with them?

[Maus0728]

1. Can I run more than one signature campaign?

The general rule is, 1 account == 1 Signature campaign. You can't advertise two different services/product at the same time especially if the campaign requires the use of the Avatar and Signature space. You can still advertise other campaign though, if and only if avatar isn't required as pre-requisite for entering.

2. Once I joined a SC, can I leave it and go for another one, or I'm stuck with them?

Yes! You can message and explain the reason to the campaign manager that you are leaving. However, just don't be a signature campaign hopper because sometimes a good payrate doesn't always mean a valid reason for switching campaigns.

[Lucius]

I can confirm that I have received several payments over the years from this site, but it should be borne in mind that exit scam can happen at any time. If you are not already in the signature campaign, why not invest a few $ and hire someone to make a personalized signature, and in it you can advertise your referral link - because as I already wrote, the only way to earn something through faucets is by collecting referrals or making your own faucet (which requires an initial investment).

[Refrumatrix]

Not bad but it's a complete waste of time this days, I think the best coins that should have faucets are those in massive supply like shiba inu, in 2016 faucets was actually good because the value of coins like BTC and ETH even doge was very low

Thank you! That's exactly the kind of data I was looking for: straight and to the point.
My biggest issue now is that most signature campaigns I see require posting on gambling boards, and I don't gamble. But it's a start, the rest is just a matter of working on it. 

For the record, I just reached the 5 dollar mark on Cointiply, so I can cash out, which I expect to do today. Time has come to see whether it works out or not...

[7deadlyBTCIN]

You will only make few cents per day using faucets it's better to spend your time on airdrops you will get better result compare to faucets, try coinmarketcap and airdrops.io, you won't win every time cause of many scam projects but it pays more than faucets

[Maus0728]

You've got options! Not every signature campaign requires participants to post mostly in the gambling section; some merely require a certain number of posts in a week to be eligible for BTC payout. That's why reading and comprehending the terms and conditions can help you in determining whether or not you'll be a valuable asset to the casino or other services.

That's the simplest rule you can follow to maintain an organic and healthy discussion. So yeah! READ A LOT!

[Zain Tariq]

Ok, so I'm a newbie, I've been trying for months to start investing in cryptocurrencies, and, so far, nothing even remotely good is happening.

Just to be clear, I'm well aware of what most think of crypto faucets. It makes sense, for somebody living in the US or any other developed country, to not "waste their time" on them, as you can make a lot more money just by trimming your neighbour's grass, if needed.
But some of us aren't that lucky. In my particular case, I have been unemployed since April 2020, and I'm really scraping the bottom of the barrel here. Meanwhile, even the chance of me getting a crappy job (which at this time would be a blessing) at my age and in a country which has been economically ravaged by the pandemic is slim in the best of cases.
To make things worse, even if I did get a job, the law here only allows internet transactions to be made with credit cards, so I could have a truckload of money, and still would be unable to use it.

So last week I started reading about crypto faucets. Got into Cointiply, and since last Sunday I have managed to raise a grand total of $2.14 ( ), which is very little by any means, but it's much better than nothing.

So this thread is intended to get some information from you, more knowledgeable guys, as well as to help other newbs that may be in a similar situation.

The question is: Which faucets do you guys recommend or not?
I'm looking for reliable information on honest sites where I can make a buck. I don't mind working for what most would consider "peanuts". What I don't want is to waste my time for nothing, or to get to those "deposit $$$ to get $$$$$" scams.

I have come up with this site: https://cryptofaucets.cash/2021/02/01/best-free-bitcoin-faucets/ that lists 27 faucets as "the best ones". How trustworthy is it? Do you have any experience in any of those faucets?

Thank you all in advance. 

faucets sites will only help you to consume your internet,Phone battery & wastage of time nothing more .We can’t say all but most if the faucet sites end up with all this ,it’s better instead here join some bounties.

Many airdrops are also waste of time, I have put this behind 2 years ago when it was not profitable but there are some that can pay. The disadvantage of airdrop is that many people are using it for scam purpose, to scam people that are participating in the airdrop.

faucets sites will only help you to consume your internet,Phone battery & wastage of time nothing more .We can’t say all but most if the faucet sites end up with all this ,it’s better instead here join some bounties.

Faucet is not like mining that can consume battery, make phone hot without mining anything good, facets do not consume phone battery but it is absolutely waste of time.

Alright, as of now, I'm waiting on my first 5 bucks to be credited to my Electrum wallet. I know it may take a few hours. It feels like years, though...
In any case, if I do receive the coins, it'll be the very first crypto I've ever owned, so I'm very excited, to say the least. As for the time it took, it was 8 1/2 days until I could reach the 5 bucks minimum withdrawal requirement, and no fees will be charged (other than a transaction fee by cointiply), so I expect to get the full 5 bucks in my wallet. I'll report back when it happens.

[Trojane]

Faucets is actually paying but in "very small" token as you said..
I understand what you wanna achieve and your level right now; if it's okay for you, go for the best faucet and register then gather these coins in one durable wallet( these is after you've gotten something else to do that will get you alot of cash ) If not, you're still gonna push yourself to a tight corner because this fringe benefits cannot earn you anything to support your up keep.
Freebitco.in is also paying I think; according to mk4

I still think faucets are a good thing for beginners and crypto noobs. (of course, the serious ones that really pay off, even if it's dust). It is a good way to learn the basics of crypto, deposit, withdrawal, transaction etc...
Also, maybe it's dust now but who knows for a year or two. I remember when I own a few faucet websites, I spent around 1BTC on users. they could earn 5000 satoshi's in one claim and every hour (BTC worth $100-$200). today it is not dust (if someone has managed to save it)
I suggest you try the official Horizen faucet, you will be paid instantly. In 2020 he is worth $3-$6 then they offer bigger rewards and in that time has been possible to earn up to 1ZEN per claim. In next year he touched at the moment $150 (if I remember correctly) so it is probably cost-effective in the long run.
I have cashed out something earned through referrals and I am more than satisfied. From dust.

[bakasabo]

BernyJB, how long does it takes you collect daily rewards from all 27 faucets? From your point of view, how real it looks to raise minimum withdrawal amount on these faucets without having an army of referrals?

Why do you name your article "best free bitcoin faucets", when there are faucets in the list that give altcoins? You can add two MATIC faucets to this list then https://macncheese.finance/matic-polygon-mainnet-faucet.php and https://matic.supply/. They dont have minimum withdrawal and instantly send a little bit of MATIC to your wallet. It is said that these faucets are help for those who is short of MATIC for one transaction. So if you want to claim it many times, you need to move received MATIC to other wallet every day. Because you will get a message "you have enough MATIC on your balance" when claiming next day if your balance is >0.

[FloridaKid]

Its a waste of time, the only tokens worth faucets right now are those meme coins with gigantic max supply like safemoon, shiba inu, saitama, doge dash and others, the only faucet worth my time in the past is doge coin faucets

[BernyJB]

HELL YEAH!!!
As of 25 minutes ago, I'm the proud owner of .00013858 BTC! My first million is on the way!
