Global Hive claim to be using Generation 2 Faucet Technology. This is probably based on the following redeeming features:
no intrusive ads
no minimum withdrawal threshold
no withdrawal fees
claim free Zcash (ZEC) daily
pays out rewards instantly to your Zcash Wallet address
link to your Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter accounts and earn 1.9x the rewards
use the Brave Browser and earn 10x the rewards
Global Hive
The start-up Global Hive announced on May 23, 2020 that they:
.....recently implemented where $2 out every $10 profit goes to support orphanages. Ultimately, the goal is to assist and help get them placed in healthy families.
so that:
.....you can make money and help the helpless by providing them an opportunity at a brand new beginning.
This all this sounds a bit cheesey and Global Hive provide no further information about how they plan to implement or achieve these noble aims. But the important thing is you get to claim Zcash every 24 hours from the Global Hive Zcash Fountain.
All you need an email and a Zcash wallet address to register. They have been paying out instantly to my Zcash wallet. What more do you need to know.
Multiplier Rewards
They have a bonus rewards system very similar to the Zen Faucet. (In fact the whole website appears to be a direct copy of the ZEN Faucet site).
Linking to your Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin accounts gets you 1.9x multiplier bonus.
For downloading or just using the Brave Browser if already downloaded, you receive 10x multiplier rewards.
While the website states on the rewards page, that you get 20% extra Faucet rewards when you use Brave Browser. This is a hangover from the ZEN Faucet, one of the many things they forget to change when copying the Zen Faucet site.
I had already downloaded the Browser Browser and I have been receiving the 10x multiplier rewards.

The Global Hive started out as the Tezos (XTZ) Fountain. Then one day the Global Hive site became unavailable as it was under maintenance. I just assumed that was the end of it, until a couple days later I got the following email from Global Hive:
URGENT UPDATE: First, many of you are doing an AMAZING job referring your family and friends to Globalhive and we are extremely grateful.
Yesterday it was discovered that with all of these new users creating Tezos wallet addresses, we were losing a tremendous amount of money, but didn't know why.
Our genius senior developer discovered that Tezos had implemented a protocol fee applied to every brand new wallet address. Their fee is .25 Tezos.
Obviously, this is an unsustainable model. Effective immediately, we are switching the reward crypto token from Tezos to ZCash.
We apologize for the disruption to the system that we had implemented.
We are dedicated to crypto adoption and keeping everything moving forward.
If we may humbly ask, if you have not downloaded the Brave Browser or are not using it to claim your daily rewards, we would greatly appreciate it if you would do so.
We offer a 10x reward for this and it greatly helps us keep the doors open!
Thank you,
Team Globalhive
Now I have tried to verify if the Tezos Foundation have actually implemented a protocol fee of 0.25 XTZ to every brand new wallet address. But to date have not found anything to back-up Global Hives claims.
ZEC Payment Confirmation
While Funding Lasts
It appears Global Hive get their funding (or part of) from the Brave Browser referral program. It is also noted that they promote downloading the Exodus Wallet to get a Zcash address. Maybe Global Hive have some arrangement with Exodus.io and receive kickbacks in some form or other.
Pipe Flare : ZEC/PIVX faucet works on similar principles. :p
The End
And really I didn't make up the bit about Generation 2 Faucet Technology. That's what they wrote on their blog.
Global Hive & Pipeflare do pay out the ZEC / PIVX instantly to your wallet. Thats all that matters.
