There's this Steemit guy named, @sleepy-gary, who posted about Crypto Faucets.

Here is my experience so far.

Fun level: 7/10
Time Waste: 8/10
Value: 2/10
Potential: 6/10
Capcha Annoyance: 9/10

So, I went looking at the Minebit.co.in to see if I can find the video funnel, but I couldn't see it in my area.

That led me to Virtual Pub.

You earn, Satoshi, which are like fractions of a Bitcoin.
You have a pub.

Hire a waiter, buy stock, make pizza etc.

There is alot of back and forth. It is a grind.

It is, 2 steps forward, 1 step back, as you need to upgrade, which costs coins that you've earned, in order to increase your potential earnings.

While grinding there, I was running, Pokebits, which is a quest grind. It is a game to earn Satoshi. Again, slow, but flicking between the 2 games was ok.

Completing quests, to earn some fragments, with a popular genre, was ok.

Then with Minebit.co.in is another grind. But there are several ways to earn. Letting the page run, doing surveys, watching adverts.

The minebit links to a wallet, which you can also mine from.

The most annoying thing is the capcha, prove you're not a robot, clicking. Then it ramps up to clicking cars in pictures etc. Very tedious.

But, the whole idea of, slavery for bits, might have some value during idle times.

Well, for me, it was a first step into looking at it.

I hope this is helpful.

Oh, bummer. did the video's not show up for you? I am in the USA, so maybe it's different. In my opinion the surveys and offers are pretty bunk (although I do complete the slideshows when they are available.), so I stick with videos.

Most faucets are crap and a waste of time. And wow! you have 55 h/s? Are you on a desktop? I get like 5-10. Waste of time for me, so I ended up setting up a website to mine for me, instead of mining for a website.

That Pokemon site you showed me: Lol, I ended up getting locked out of it somehow. I tried resetting my password but I can't seem to get back in, but it took me on a hunt for other games to earn BTC.

Yes, I ran it in the background while I was watchin a movie

Nice. I have a laptop, so when I am watching a movie, I usually do the Pay-to-click ads and a couple of faucets.

Also, I am getting ready to make a tutorial on the set-up of a browser miner like the one on the website, except it will payout all to you and not be split with a website. IMO, the only real drawback is, for me, it will take a few months to reach payout (laptop, again. Super slow/bad.)
