Bitcoin Faucets Part 2

Because you are here, I am going to assume you have read Part 1. But if not, here's a link for you: http://btcfaucetsandotherstuff.blogspot.com/2014/02/bitcoin-faucets-part-1.html

Anyway, some faucets offer up a better bounty if you are willing to take a small risk. These will be the subject of our focus today.

http://freebitco.in/ This bitcoin faucet offers free "rolls" every hour that give you some bitcoin depending on what your roll is. After your free roll is done for the hour, you can gamble some of what you have won for a chance to earn even more free bitcoin.

http://www.gratisbitco.in/ This bitcoin faucet is much the same as the other, but it offers less of a payout and it is a roll of 6 dice in order to determine how much bitcoin you will win.

http://bitcoinfaucet.tk/ This is just a regular old faucet. But it pays out every 6 hours and pays out quite a bit more then the regular faucets talked about in part 1. This carries no risk, and you can therefore make quite a bit of bitcoin off of this faucet with little work on your part.

http://www.qoinpro.com/This is a new type of faucet that pays out once a day in more then one cryptocurrency. These others are somewhat like bitcoin and are almost exactly alike bitcoin. This way, you will be able to have stashes of more then one cryptocurrency without paying a penny out of pocket. And if you refer people to this faucet, you can earn even more coins per day.

Bitcoin Faucets Part 1.

Do you want to make bitcoin for free? Well then I have what you need.

Faucets are websites that provide small amounts of bitcoin for free so that people new to cryptocurrency can start experimenting with it.

The more people that expieriment, the more businesses will start to see that Bitcoin is convenient. Once they decide that, more and more businesses will start to accept Bitcoin.

This will lead to more demand for bitcoin. This will then lead to more bitcoin miners. And the more bitcoins are out in circulation, the more the price of a bitcoin will stabilize.
All of this is just a brief summery. So if I forgot to mention something, I do not want to hear it in the comments.

You can make bitcoin from faucets by using the following step by step system:

Step 0: (Not required for those that already have a wallet) Create a wallet using the step by step guide in this post: http://btcfaucetsandotherstuff.blogspot.com/2014/02/how-to-create-bitcoin-wallet.html

Step 1: Find out what your Bitcoin Address is.
If you followed the guide in the above link, you can do this by logging into your coinbase account. Then go to Account Settings. Then Bitcoin Addresses.

Step 2: Copy the Bitcoin Address.
You can do this by moving over the address with your computer mouse, trackpad, or trackball while holding down the left button on whatever device you are using to act as a computer mouse.

Step 3: Copy the Bitcoin Address.
Do this by clicking the highlighted text with the right button on the device you are using and then clicking copy.
A shortcut for this is to press the control key on your keyboard. Depending on your model of keyboard, it may be labeled something else such as ctrl.
While holding down the control key, press the letter C on your keyboard with the Bitcoin Address highlighted.

Step 4: Visit the websites at the end of this guide and paste your Bitcoin address into the box labeled "Bitcoin address" or "Put your Bitcoin address here" or something like that.

Step 5: Type in the text from the Turing test on the page and then press enter on your keyboard.
Please note that depending on the type of Turing test the website uses, you may have to watch part of a video in order to get the security code.

Please note that your coins will be stored in a coinbox wallet until you collect 0.00005500 BTC. Once you have done that, you will see your bitcoin in your wallet in anywhere from a few minutes to a day.

Here is a list of the Bitcoin Faucets in this part of the guide:

Stay tuned for Part 2

How to create a Bitcoin Wallet.

A Bitcoin Wallet is the Bitcoin equivalency of a bank account. You can store your bitcoins in the wallet and convert them into cash later when you have enough (more on that later.) Or you can keep your bitcoins, gambling that they will go up in value and therefore will be worth more.

Please note that you should not expect to become a millionaire with Bitcoin. Just as you should not expect to become a millionaire with any currency. But if you are willing to dedicate enough time and effort, you have a decent chance at trying.

So how do you get a wallet? By following the below step by step guide.
This guide is meant for beginners to Bitcoin. Perhaps one day I will update this post with guides for more advanced users.

Step 1: Create a temporary wallet at https://trybtc.com/
This website shows you the basics of Bitcoin and also places a very small amount of bitcoin in your wallet to help you get started.

Step 2: Follow the prompts on your screen until you get to an offer to create a wallet with coinbase.

Step 3: Create the coinbase wallet with an email address that you have.

Step 4: Check the email address you registered with for a confirmation email from coinbase.

Step 5: Once you get that email, click on the included link to confirm your account with coinbase and make your "permanent" wallet.

Step 6: That's it. Soon you should get your free bitcoin from TryBTC to help you get started.
