What good is it if one only gets very very small amounts?

I don't get this for reply? All the previous posts are in the text box??

Anyway my question is what's a bitcoin address and where do I get one???

For information about the Daily Newbie Lotto see here.

From the New to BitCoin? Start here! sticky in the Bitcoin Forum > Bitcoin > Bitcoin Discussion forum:

Where do I get free bitcoins?        Discussion thread here

If you have a site that gives out free bitcoins, or know of one, then please submit a link to it in that thread,
or this one if you are still on newbie restrictions.  Any input is welcome including a quick "thanks" or "hello".

Thanks

And I suppose I can just list them here below as well:

Be sure to bookmark this page so you don't miss anything new.

Beware of sites/threads which just copy the entries from this official thread and hides the links behind url redirectors,
making them untrustworthy or a spam-filled inconvenience at best. Also even some of the sites listed here will have their
own list of free Bitcoin sites but hide them behind coinurl and/or adfly links, and other dubious and spammy things like that.
For your convenience and safety it best to just use their faucet, and avoid the other links there, and then come back to use
the verified and maintained list of links here.

If you find this list has been helpful to you in getting your first BTC and you appreciate the time put in to verify these
sites, and to compile and maintain this list, please consider a small donation: 1A2tWrHSnc4eoRJCgcDx8BwPAATmtxMTye

You can use this address in one of your daily checks of these sites for example, or a test of sending BTC after
you have used these sites to test the receiving of BTC. Thank you.  

Note: Many of these sites only payout once a day, or even less often, to save on transaction fees,
so don't get too worried if you don't see a payment for several hours. If after more than a day or two you
still don't get anything, or you have any other problems, post in this thread. Some of the operators of these
various sites follow this thread. Also note the * beside some entries and what it means as explained under
the list of entries below.

Got hung on coinreaper for the last few days, but now it seems to be down.
It shows me just the hosters site.

Site is currently down. Looks like they are changing stuff around because it is showing there hosts page. So probably just a site edit or something.

[Portnoy]

BitcoinForest.com added to the list.

CoinReaper is down, but all of the sites listed there can be accessed from the list here in the OP.

I don't understand these questions.

I got a payout from bitcoinar for a second address I tried ( 0.0000002 BTC ).  No payout for the first address I tried.

When I went to try a third address today I got a message saying I would have to wait 20 hours+ before trying again, even though their site says, "Get Free Bitcoins (now every 12 hours!)"

hmm...

Will anyone miss getting that 0.0000002 BTC per day [ if it actually pays out for that day ] if a dubious site like this gets left off the list?   

I also noticed it was only a payout of .00000020 heh. I can obviously confirm receiving at least one payout.
I would say in the spirit of the topic, to keep it on the list...

I would add it to the list if it paid out more than it does.  I have submitted addresses to it 4 times now in as many days and have only had that one payout so far.

Yay!

You can see in the list, in the OP, that it was one of the first Free Bitcoin sites to shut down
and be moved into the discontinued section.

The only one I see being down is hartcode. And the only ones that are empty are the ones that are always empty like bitcrate ( and they are pointed out in the list with the * ).
