in my pursuit to collect and gain some additional cryptocurrency besides what I have invested in through Uphold I have been messing around with a few other options. Why look at or use faucets? I know the gains can be small, but for those of that can't mine easily with our computers simply due to the fact our hashing power is limited to CPUs it just isn't overly practical in returns. I'm sure there are some CPU friendly coins out there for someone like myself, however, I haven't found any that my laptop can mine easily. If there are some options I'm all ears.
Since I have found it harder to mine with my limits I have been using several faucets in the mean time and will probably continue to use them even though the amounts of currency are typically low. The ones I have been using the most are linked to CoinPot since it seemed to be the easiest to deal with with its built in microwallet and token rewards for claiming from the faucets. So, why mention this at all? I find myself in a bit of a quandary. Last week I used all of my gains and put them into Doge simply because it was the easiest to withdraw. I don't know if that was the right move or not since they are sort of stuck now in my wallet without gaining more to shift them into something more lucrative. I actually have nothing against Doge coins and never have for that matter. Their value is just low in the grand scheme of things unless you have a huge amount of them. As we near the end of the week I am thinking about how to convert my collected currencies including the CoinPot tokens. I am unsure what the best option is or if I should just let everything I have to continue to just to slowly accrue and eventually cash out my crumb collection. At the very least the tokens can be converted. So here is my question for you guys that have more experience than I with such. Should I convert those to a few more Sotoshi, BCH, or Dash? If you have an opinion I would gladly entertain it through comments if you are up too it.
In addition to the few traditional faucets I have been messing around with a few games that offer cryptocurrency, but I have noticed most of them seem to require pretty hefty totals to cash out or the ERC-20 tokens just aren't worth a whole lot and still require a fairly large number of tokens for a few cents at most. For the most part I am not totally playing the game(s) for the currencies so much as its just kind of fun to mess around with and a potential upside at some point even if it seems they give out on the low side. Maybe, I just have yet to find something better than the ones I got over the last week or so. even so, anything gained is better than nothing at all no matter how you look at it.
I will say this The faucets are merely a side venture to the entire project simply due to the fact the potential of those versus growing a true portfolio over this year are significantly different in their profit potentials. However, the diversity that they could bring to my portfolio does have an upside to it no matter how small it is in comparison. Every crumb of crypto has a little value in the end game. Given a little time I believe one can actually help the main goal of increasing profitability in the long term.
