5,552 sats is not up to $4, so it is not massive lol.
But even though it's not a massive amount, it's still a decent amount of money to buy a burger, though, lol. Plus, it was obtained so easily, so it still means something. Moreover, what he did could motivate other users to be consistent in claiming the SATS and accumulating it. It may not mean anything at the moment, but in the form of SATS, its value could potentially increase in the future. It's possible, right?
It depends on your definition of "so easily". Atleast you committed your internet subscription and time to collecting them. It should be easily if they were credited directly to your balance. Of course a casino is not going to feed you with faucets.
About the value increasing in the future, it's like something that's not happening any soon. First 1 sat should be equal 1 cent before you will experience that kind of increment.
Of course such faucets are not primarily meant for withdraw, you use it to gamble in the platform and see if you can multiply it that is the proven way to increase the value of the sats
Yeah time and Internet is costly and the price depends on the person offering them, we shouldn't say that the effort of those faucet hunters where not worth it because in all the time can only be quantify by him who was involved.
What I think is that faucet suffered the same faith as bounty hunting of the 2017 when the alternative coins market just came up with the alot of bounty hunter's earn alot of tokens but now that way of earning have become worthless and wasted time unless for a few of them.
