BTC faucets are getting more elaborate

By Akodom | Akoblog | 23 Apr 2019


Crypto facuets have been around for a while now.  They started as add riddled pages, all of which seemed to take their design inspiration from Geocities or MySpace.  Newer faucets have gamified watching adverts - one of the newer ones is RollerCoin.  You start as a broke miner is some basement somewhere and you have to play games to earn has rate.  These games are short retro versions of games (some actually retro).  Game list inculdes:

1.  Flappy Bird 

2.  Arakinoid

3.  Match 3

4.  Breakout

5.  Rocket jump

There are some others but they aren't memorable.

My broke miner dude ready to play some of the above games to get has power (lasts 3 days).  I found Match 3 and Flappy Bird to be the best for earning ingame hash power as these took the least amount of both effort and time.

Eventually you will earn enough to buy GPUs to start your GPU mining racks.  These give permanent hash power (unlike 3D boost from games).  Have enough of these and you might make more than faucet amounts of money - though time investment is likely very not worth your time.

You could also send real BTC to faucet and just buy a bunch of GPUs - seems like a bad play to me but if that's your thing then go ham.  The gamification is fun as I enjoy playing a few games during a commercial break of a show or waiting short periods of time.  Since all games are 30-60 seconds long it's easy to get a few in on a short break.  So it's a weird feeling this faucet, there is some value here, but I don't think it's in the pittance you get paid out.  Worth a try if you have a few minutes - I can say I had a little fun with this one.
