Active Crypto Faucets and Mining in 2021 (Part 2): The Story so Far (List of Assessments to Follow)


In one of my posts, I complained that I do not have enough fiat to pump into cryptocurrencies in order to go full crypto and live off the interest, which I'd convert to ETH and USDT. In the comments, someone suggested to me that I investigate active faucets to see if I can make the 3 800 dollars by which I am short. (Thank you to that person for spurring on my research efforts.) Having looked at a few of them, my conclusion was that I'd have to target all of them in quick succession in order to do that. So far, I'm hitting the following faucets:

  • Cointiply (cooldown is one hour/sixty minutes): Not worth the payout, IMO, even with the multiplier.
  • Fire Faucet (cooldown is 30 minutes, but the autoclaim feature, with max boost of 4x, is cool): Might be worth the effort
  • BTC News' ES Faucet (cooldown is 30 minutes per faucet, of which there are multiple; one can buy ESCoin tokens to increase XP levels and unlock all faucets, multipliers and bonuses): The best one I've found so far (thanks to Danny Wayne) and definitely worth it if combined with Fire Faucet (and possibly others).

More items will be added to this list as I investigate and draw conclusions about the other one hundred or so sites on my list. If I hit all of them (or at least the ones worth my time and effort) repeatedly and mine certain CPU-friendly coins (such as Banano), I could potentially earn enough from them to sustain myself and not need to job hunt. Watch this space.

Cryptographic Anarchy: (Mis)Adventures in Crypto

The content of this blog is exclusively to do with online privacy/security, cryptography and cryptocurrency: Understanding it, investing in it, mining it (in groups/crowds), developing/programming it, the social problems it aims to solve and the various ways to make more of it (or not, as various losses and failures happen). Let's get away from banksters, Capitalists and fiat, to an unbanked anarcho-syndicalist commune. || Banner image: Blogger's own.
