It will be interesting to see what happens to the list when the new 5430 satoshi "dust" transaction limit goes into effect.
Is this something official, a new limit for small transactions? It is something planned for the next version of the reference client. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/2577All this gold dusting for free bitcoins has a drawback - after finally getting enough to play a minimum bet on satoshidice, the transaction fee was 0.0105 on a 0.01 BTC bet! Fortunately I won the bet  almost doubling my input, so basically the end result was that I ended up where I started, but with the benefit of trading in my dust outputs for a single input that shouldn't have such high fees, the next time I decide to spend it. To reduce fees let your coins age and/or combine them with larger amounts in transactions. You can read this post for some information on the subject: Coin age and fees https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=200397.msg2091094#msg2091094 |

We offer a free Bitcoin Like button (similar in size and principle to Facebook Like button) which allows anyone to send/receive bitcoin-based "Likes" using a variety of funny/positive/snarky icon-based slogans, so you can earn free bitcoins whenever you receive a "Like" from anyone else.

It doesn't look like anything has changed since it was removed. According to the site, the last winner was 6 months ago. And the home page still says the site is under maintenance. |

Yes, and it is on the list. And note that there are also other free BTC sites on the list that are not on coinreaper. One can use them both. |

CoinAd.com seems to be working again ( although they never did respond to many messages sent to them ).
Added back to the list.

redcoins.co seems not to be working right now. It's telling me to calm down, which is amusing.
And has anyone else noticed that, despite trying very, very hard to make it look legit, the free bitcoin lottery seems to pay out small winnings on about 1 out of 3 plays? Doesn't that seem an order of magnitude too easy for a 6/49 game? Not that I'm complaining, it's fun to feel like I'm 10x luckier than everybody else, but it smells fishy.
The fact that they're effectively getting 3-5 captchas for about the same average payout per hour as each of the clone faucets makes me think they're just a classier captcha farm. Oh, well, I enjoyed it for a while, I'll keep doing it until I hit the coinbox payout and then stop until something that doesn't feel sleazy comes along to legitimize coinbox.
I didn't mention this in the newbie thread because I don't want to turn off newbies from bitcoin. I imagine the pitiful ROI discourages most of them before they enrich the spammers too horribly much, anyway, if that's what's really going on here. *shrug*

Thanks for your views. I suspect that coinbox and that lottery and all the sites that use coinbox are all part of the same thing. It is all rather curious. The coinbox thing is a good idea. It would be nice if more sites could use that, are something like it, especially now with the new small tx rules.

I wouldn't worry too much. I don't think it will turn off too many and if people can't see the true intrinsic value of Bitcoin and are just in it for small freebies they won't have much of an effect on the Bitcoin economy one way or the other.  |

About bitvisit.com there is a bad news, site will be shut down for an idefinate period of time. To quote from the admin of the site: I am sorry but This site will be shut down for an indefinate period of time.. I just poured in another $250 worth of advertising in to this and some of you hackers out there just stole it. I have tried really hard to make this a success and spent a lot of money just to find people cheat and hacked it. Needless to say I am sorry for those legitimate users and advertisers. - Admin Thanks for the report. |
