To be honest, you should avoid all these faucets even if they really pay.
You could earn bitcoin more efficiently with sig campaigns and selling your goods and services.

For example, you can get 4000 satoshi per post as newbie with 777coin sig, and 40000 satoshi per post as member with PD sig.

Agreed. Terrible return on time invested. There are much better uses for anyone's time. The time for faucets is over.

All I know of http://www.coinbox.me/ is that they hold payouts (because they are so low) until you accrue enough. That tells me all I need to know.

yeah most half of the coinbox sites are not working properly
and sometimes the working one just give me white screen

and for the last 3 sites: BitcoinFlow.me , BitcoinParty.me ,& XBT.biz
their payments are being sent to http://monedero.me/ check that site out

might wanna try the other similar site to coinbox that gives out better satoshi
not much more satoshi but works smoothly better than coinbox

edit: my balance on monedero has been pending for 2 days,
the "next payment on..." timer keeps resetting every 8 hours
without actually sending out the payment...

I sometimes use faucets to get some altcoins, because I don't want to spend any satoshi getting them, and I want to make a collection of alt coins just for fun.

But bitcoin faucets are worthless, I agree, only freebitco.in, maybe, if you really want.

I have used their faucet last year and got around 0.0001 for hours of hard work. I usually either get a blank page or timeout errors, I haven't try them for a long time. It would really be more profitable to even join a newbie and Jr member signature campaign. You wouldn't like to sit there for it to load while typing the annoying captchas.

I never got paid from these faucets, perhaps all of the listed faucets above are frauds.  I don't use faucets anymore - the return on investment is just very low, but I think they are useful for beginners in the bitcoin community. You can get 0.0001 B per week or something along those lines from a faucet

Use signature to earn some btc instead of faucets..

[btchaste]

Thanks, actually I was about to use one of them, time saved.

[newflesh]

Faucets are great for learning about bitcoin but they are a complete waste of time when your spending hours on faucets for fractions of $$$.

Would be a lot easier just getting a part time job and spending your wages on btc, just remember to hodl

Most kids these days can't even hold a Mcdonalds job.

Even then, kids could earn much more bitcoin by writing articles or joining a sig campaign than by entering captchas.

just go to rounds and games and seek for giveaways.

777coin has one with 0.1mbtc/day, and you can clain every day,, with no rollover. So in few claims you will get more than a month of faucets.


there is freebitco.in that most recommend, but they offer no proof of they being fair, so I don't know if its worth

[pissedoff]

In theory you should just avoid all of the faucets out there. Because of the cost of Bitcoin now it has become unfeasible to continue to use faucets.

[beaknuke]

i found it a good tool to learn things like transferring between wallets/exchanges. Helped me in the early stages to waste money that really i didnt give a damn about. yeah its peanuts but once you get a grip with peanuts you can become more of a risk taker.

doesn't have anything to do with the price

if the price was higher the winnings would be proportional

if the price was lower the winnings would be proportional

[Lanzer]

most of them give <50 satoshis yup better avoid

[tsm]

this should be a sticky towards that newbie section thread w. list of faucets.

[cinnamon_carter]

for btc i would say avoid all ! (unless you have a time machine)

[Anastasio]

I like freebitco.in through out my day at work, I'll claim it. Get enough to transfer it to PD to get my gambling fix in.
