With the Bitcoin
price hovering above $650 ($667.02 as I write this), there’s a
renewed interest in Bitcoins and ways to earn more of them. And for
many people, Bitcoin faucets (sites that give away small amounts of
free bitcoins) are becoming more and more of a viable option. I plan
on devoting an entire section of this site to Bitcoin faucets
including FAQs and guides on how to collect free Bitcoins from them.
But for now the goal is to
start earning Bitcoins right away
and the quickest and easiest way I know of to do that is by visiting
the best paying Bitcoin faucets.
This article covers
the highest paying free Bitcoin website that I’ve
come across so far, and it happens to be quite addicting as well.
It’s called
FaucetGame.com. You can collect up to 250 free Satoshi every 15
minutes and play games to win credits (which can be converted to
Bitcoins later). There is no cost to join but you do have to
register an account which requires an email, Bitcoin address for
payouts, and a username and password. Once registered, you can start
collecting free Satoshi right away. They have a faucet that will
give you Satoshi every 15 minutes, along with several casino type
games where credits can be wagered, lost, and won.
Free Bitcoin
Faucet
The first place
you’ll want to go is the free Bitcoin faucet. This faucet pays
very well when compared to other sites and the site layout is clean
and easy to navigate so trying to collect free coins isn’t a chore.
Banner ads are present but not obnoxious or invasive and collecting
free Satoshi requires little more than clicking to verify you’re
human. The faucet gives you a set amount, up to 250 free Satoshi
every 15 minutes (the payout increases as you level up and increases
even more on the weekends).
Here’s the
catch…
The faucet payouts
are rewarded as credits to your account, but no worries, the credits
can be converted back to Satoshi and paid out in Bitcoins as soon as
you reach the minimum payout (currently 50,000 Satoshi).
I believe the reason
they convert payouts to credits is so that you can play the casino
games with these credits, win (or lose) more credits, convert what’s
left into Bitcoins, and it’s still not a gambling website and
doesn’t fall under any online gambling laws. It’s completely
free to play and costs nothing more than your time. And hey, you get
to earn free Bitcoins by playing games.
Earn Free Satoshi
by Playing Games
FaucetGame claims
that the majority of their games are rigged in the player’s favor
and after spending some (a good deal of) time on the site, I’ll
agree that most of the games are rigged to let you win. Check back
in the near future for a full guide on the games and ways to increase
your payouts and earn more money.
If you’re brand
new, “Falling Fortunes” has the lowest risk of losing credits so
you might want to play it first. Wheel of Wealth and Slot Machines
are other good ones to play when starting. Also, be very careful
playing Roll of Chance (ROC) since changing the payout multiplier
changes the odds and the allure of high payouts has caused many
players to go broke.
Free Bonus
Satoshi!
We’re not done
yet. You can earn thousands of bonus Satoshi every single day and
this is the number one reason FaucetGame ranks in the top free
Bitcoin sites on the web. Let me repeat that… THOUSANDS of
bonus Satoshi every single day. And it’s easy to do.
Daily Bonus
Play 5 of the games
a set number of times (210 plays total) and collect the Daily Bonus
Bitcoins. The bonus is multiplied by your player level so it starts
off just ok but quickly becomes lucrative as you play the games and
level up. You can easily start earning 1,000-1,500 Satoshi every day
from this bonus alone.
Make it Rain!
While playing games
you have the option of chatting with other players who are on at the
same time. Each chat message you send costs 100 credits that goes
into a Rain Pool. Every hour this pool rains free money on randomly
selected chat participants. You won’t be rained on every time this
happens, but it’ll happen enough to make it worthwhile and make you
want to keep coming back for more.
Weekend Bonus
Payouts from the
free Bitcoin faucet and the Daily Bonus are increased on the weekends
for even more earning potential.
Refer Other
Players
The site has a
referral program that will pay you free Satoshi every time one of
your referrals collects from the faucet. The person you referred
still gets the same payout as everyone else, but you collect a small
bonus in addition to the amount they receive. And this happens every
time they collect from the free faucet. Refer more people and/or
active players and this could be a nice little source of passive
Bitcoin income.
VIP
It costs money to
become a VIP player but some of the perks include increased payouts
and the ability to auto-play the casino games. The full list of
perks is available at the site and while it might be tempting to
upgrade right away, higher level members agree that it is best to
wait until you are a higher level before upgrading… otherwise the
out of pocket cost is not worth the rewards.
I don’t have
further info on VIP because I am still a low level and only
considering it. If I do upgrade to VIP, I’ll post here with the
juicy details.
There’s plenty
more to do and say regarding FaucetGame but hopefully this overview
gave you a good starting point for earning free Bitcoins right away.
