I spend a lot of times searching around looking for free ways to earn crypto and to date have found a couple of good ones and a few bad ones.  Today I thought, why not make an article here where the objective is to have readers interact in the comments with methods they have found to gain free crytpo and see what happens.  As long as the comments keep flowing, I will do my best to test out the methods posted in the comments and give a small review of each one I try out that results in a positive experience. Who knows, maybe we'll all find a new way to increase our crypto portfolio in the process, at least that is the hope and idea of this post.  I'll start the list off with a few ways that I have found in the small time that I have jumped down the cryptocurrency rabbit hole.

Publish0x -  Read and write about crypto, and earn crypto while you do it.  What more needs to be said?  It's my go to site for reading about crypto related news.  As crypto becomes more popular, I believe this site is going to explode.  The future is bright indeed, and getting in now will prove beneficial down the road. 

Coinbase  -  I know, I know, not your keys not your crypto, but for earning free crypto, Coinbase is hard to beat.  From the learn to earn to the crypto cash back card, the amount of crypto you can get without spending a dime is amazing.  You can always send out the crypto you earned to a wallet of your choice at a later date.

Pipeflare  - Pipeflare has 3 faucets (ZEC, Matic, and 1FLR) that can be claimed daily.  ZEC goes directly to your wallet, while the other 2 do have a minimal withdrawal limit, but that's not all.  You can play several games on Pipeflare and compete against others on their leaderboard that pays out weekly to the top 300 players.  It's paid in ZEC, goes straight to your wallet, and honestly is not hard to place on their leaderboards at the moment, although once more people learn and use Pipeflare, placing on the leaderboard may become more difficult.

CryptoPick  - I include this one for the potential more than what I have actually earned.  It's a simple game where you compete against another player in a 5 minute window seeing who can short / long the market the best.  They have a leaderboard that does pay out in ETH but is a lot harder to place than Pipeflare, and winning games rewards you with Pickies which while not a token as of today, is promised to be a token in the future.  Once that happens, the potential for this game ramps up greatly, until then it's just a game, but at least it's a fun game.

FreeEtherium  -  Standard faucet that rewards a minimal amount.  The minimum withdrawal limit seems pretty high, but it is free so I guess you get what you pay for in that aspect.  They also have a link to their many other affiliated faucets if Etherium is not your crypto of choice, such as BitCoin, Cardano, LiteCoin, Dogecoin and many others. 

CryptoSense. -  Simple app with a few games that uses ad revenue to pay you into your Coinbase account.  Small minimum withdrawal limit that can be completed in just a few minutes and payout is fast.

That's it for now, at least from my own short time in searching for free ways to earn crytpo.  Please leave a comment with some of the ways all of you have found and as time allows I will look into them and try them out using your referral, so be sure to have that included in your link.  I'll also update this article as I try them out with a small tidbit about each method I try.
