The Crypto Faucet Tier List
After almost 2 years of using crypto faucets, I have applied my experience and opinion to create the ultimate tier list for crypto faucets
In this post I will go over each Faucet shown and explain how I came to my conclusions. I intend this to be the inaugural post of a future mini-series about specific Crypto Faucets. Leave a comment letting me know which faucet you would like me to cover; perhaps one I did not mention in this post.
What is a Crypto Faucet?
You may have found yourself reading this post, but aren't quite sure what a crypto faucet is. Well, simply put, a crypto faucet gives out a very small amount of a cryptocurrency in exchange for a small task, or even just clicking a button.
The "faucet" aspect of the name references a faucet that drips a small amount of water (crypto). Other than making money for the site owner/company, I believe crypto faucets are used to introduce more people into the world of cryptocurrency.
Speaking from experience, I stumbled upon crypto faucets early on in my "crypto career" and my was immediately intrigued by the free aspect; I thought to myself: "free crypto to do almost nothing and requires no investment - this is a no-brainer".
I suspect many people have experienced this too, and some have even used this experience as a starting point to being more comfortable with cryptocurrencies.
Now let's actually get to point you are actually here for, the Tier List:
S tier :
Cointiply
The first faucet we will discuss is Cointiply. Cointiply comes in hot and heavy starting us off with an S tier ranking. There are simply too many ways to earn on the Cointiply site. First and foremost, you can easily claim the faucet every 60 minutes. The faucet pays out "coins" and these coins can then be exchanged for BTC, DOGE, DASH, or LTC.
You can also earn coins on Cointiply via PTC Ads, online browser games, various Offerwalls, and my favorite - a Multiplier game (where you win a ton of coins, or lose them all). Furthermore, Cointiply has recently implemented new features like Quests, where you can earn for completing specific tasks, and an Arena, where "Heroes" you purchase with coins can battle it out to earn you even more coins in the long-run. Cointiply also has one of the sleekest and intuitive UI designs of all the faucets; It's a big reason why I love it so much.
The only knock on Cointiply is that they have not yet released an application for Apple's App Store. However, Android users are in luck as Cointiply has an application via the Google Play Store.
freebitcoin
The godfather of the faucet world, freebitcoin, has been around since 2013. This is a big reason that it is in the S tier, simply for operating for almost a decade.With crypto faucets rising and falling every day, it really is impressive to see this site stand the test of time, so far. The website is sleek and streamlined, and there are also little to no ads, which makes the experience much smoother.
The bitcoin faucet can be claimed every 60 minutes. You can multiply your faucet earnings by playing a provably fair Hi-Lo game. Actually, my favorite aspect of the website is the "Betting" option. You can use your faucet earnings to bet on a wide variety of sporting events; I have personally profited a good amount from this feature.
There are plenty of other features as well, like the ability to earn interest on your deposited Bitcoin, the chance to win a Golden Lamborghini car by purchasing golden lottery tickets, a normal lottery to win Bitcoin, and much more. I highly suggest starting with this Faucet if you are completely new to cryptocurrency, but want to dip your toes in.
Rollercoin
Rollercoin is probably the most enjoyable faucet on this entire list, and a lock for the S tier. Rollercoin falls into the Play-to-Earn category, but also has a faucet aspect that pays you out based on the amount of mining power you have accumulated. Mining Power can be created by playing the mini-games, or by purchasing Miners that will automatically create mining power for you. You can then assign that mining power to a cryptocurrency you want to "mine" in game.
Surprisingly, I actually enjoy the mini-games on Rollercoin. Most games are little deviations of popular games, but with a Rollercoin twist on them. I think it is important that the game are actually enjoyable because then it doesn't feel like a chore to login and play a few games; I actually look forward to playing a few games each day.
Rollercoin also has a Season Pass, similar to games like Fortnite and Apex Legends. The Season Pass has Free and Paid tiers, with both tiers granting you with rewards as you play and reach higher levels.
With all this said, do not expect to make a boatload of money instantly playing games on Rollercoin. However, I personally have invested in Rollercoin and have already recouped my investment after many months. I have high hopes that Rollercoin can grow into a top game of the cryptocurrency world.
adBTC
Rounding out the S tier faucets is the none other than the king of the Paid-to-Click (PTC) ads, adBTC. I am classifying this as a Faucet, simply because it is so damn easy to earn Satoshis, and Rubles (₽), on this site.
The only downside of adBTC is that you need a Payeer account/wallet to withdraw the earned Rubles (₽), and Payeer does not currently provide services to residents of the United States.
All you do is go to "Surf Ads", answer a CAPTCHA, and then you are good to start earning by completing the PTC ads. This simple task requires you to view a website for a set amount of time, normally between 10 and 60 seconds, you earn the satoshis or rubles, and that really how easy it is. There a few other ways to earn on adBTC, like watching Video ads and completing Shortlinks.
If you want a quick, simple, and easy way to earn Satoshis, or Rubles, look nor further than adBTC. Once you sign up, you will see for yourself how fast the sats stack up.
A tier :
CoinPayU
Starting off A tier we have crypto faucet site named, CoinPayU. The special aspect of this faucet is that you can claim 4 different cryptocurrencies at the same time every 60 minutes. It is sometimes hard to decide which 4 cryptocurrencies to choose, as they have a 25 to pick from.
CoinPayU provides a normal Offerwall, but also has 4 separate ways to earn via PTC ads: Surf Ads to simply view a website for a certain amount of time, Window Ads to view a website but keep your computer focus on that site, Article Ads to read and interact with articles, and finally Video Ads to simply watch videos.
The unique thing about CoinPayU is that they have expanded into the writing/blogging world with their new project called, Article. CoinPayU states that the end goal of Article is for it to be "a knowledge library and social network". Based off the Article roadmap, it seems that they are trying to build something similar to Publish0x, where readers and authors are both rewards for engaging with original content.
I think the Article project separates CoinPayU from the rest of the bunch and shows they are willing to try something new. I am excited to see where CoinPayU and the Article project go in the future, perhaps to S tier.
CoinPayU also has a mobile application you can download from the Google Play store. No love for iPhone yet again.
DutchyCorp Final Autoclaim
Final AutoClaim is a bit different than other Cryptocurrency faucets, in that you are rewarded with DUTCHY tokens, and then you can use those tokens to claim other cryptocurrencies via the Autofaucet. You will not be short on choices as there is a staggering 70 cryptocurrencies to claim. As much as I love this site, it can be quite annoying with the amount of ads and pop-ups, but regardless it is a strong A tier faucet.
There are actually two faucets you get to claim every 30 minutes, one is the normal DUTCHY token faucet, and the second is a Coin of the Month faucet. The Coin of the Month is voted on by users to decide the next month's coin. For example, the Coin of the Month for August is Litecoin (LTC), and currently next month's poll shows the coin will be Dogecoin (DOGE).
You can also earn DUTCHY tokens on Final Autoclaim by completing Shortlinks, Offerwall tasks, PTC ads, Contests, Social Jobs promoting the website, and my favorite Staking.
It takes a few more steps now that Final Autoclaim removed DUTCHY staking, but you can still earn by staking your SPACE tokens. You can acquire SPACE tokens by claiming them in the Autofaucet, or by using this SPACE faucet, that links directly to your Final Autoclaim account. Currently you can stake SPACE to earn DUTCHY tokens, SHIBA, WAVES, BTT, COSMOS, and even more SPACE tokens.
Bitcoin Mania
Bitcoin Mania, a solid A tier crypto faucet, falls into the same category as Rollercoin, being a play-to-earn/mining simulator faucet. I think Bitcoin Mania is a little more straightforward to use as all you need to do is purchase miners, the miners will mine the crypto, then you just need to claim the earnings.
It is completely free and no investment is needed, as you are given free miners to begin with and then can choose to use your earnings to purchase more profitable miners. Currently, you can earn BTC, ETH, DOGE, LTC, and USDT on Bitcoin Mania. Be sure to claim each of your miner earnings at least once every 24 hours, or they will hit their maximum cap and no more can be mined until claimed.
You can also earn BTC by completing a few social tasks promoting the site, or by playing the handful of games they currently have to offer. There appears to be more games in development, but no word as to when, or if, they will ever come. I am optimistic about Bitcoin Mania in the future, and I hope it continues its growth, but it needs some more time before it can compete with the likes of Rollercoin.
B tier :
FireFaucet
FireFaucet was the first crypto faucet I ever found, and was basically the site that introduced me to the world of crypto faucets. Therefore, it should be known that it holds a special place in my heart. With that said, I had to place it in B tier because there are a lot of ads/pop-ups on the website, and it just doesn't have anything too distinctive about it.
Similar to Final Autoclaim, you can claim the faucet every 30 minutes to earn ACP (Auto Claim Points), which can be converted into a cryptocurrency of your choice; currently there is now 13 cryptocurrencies to choose from. Users can also earn by completing PTC ads, Shortlinks, Offerwalls tasks, and answering Surveys.
FireFaucet is a nice little site that does a lot of things good, but nothing great, and doesn't have anything that separates it from any other faucet.
Faucet Crypto
Faucet Crypto is a crypto faucet with a self-described RPG style. The RPG aspect comes into play with the level/experience system and the use of Items. Each task you complete gives you some experience points. These experience points will increase your level, which in turn will increase your reward multiplier.
You can acquire items by randomly by completing tasks or by completing specific achievements/challenges. You can use these Items to increase your earn rate or you can actually sell them on the Marketplace.
I almost forgot to mention that the faucet can be claimed every 30 minutes. You can also earn sats by completing PTC ads, Offerwall tasks, and answering Surveys. I personally find that the PTC ads really add up and help you earn quickly.
Faucet Crypto is a solid faucet, and I think it is quite cool to earn experience points and feel like I am progressing towards something.
SimpleBits
SimpleBits is an extremely interesting and unique faucet, that completely deserves its spot on the B tier. The UI is quite smooth and I rarely get hit with ads or pop-ups, huge plus.
You can claim the faucet feature every 30 minutes, and it will reward you with "Tokens". Tokens can also be earned by completing PTC ads, Offerwall tasks, and Shortlinks.
Tokens can be used to rent "Hardware", and that Hardware will passively generate you a set amount of "Bound Tokens" for between 30 and 120 days. Bound Tokens is the final currency of SimpleBits, and it can be exchanged for 1 of 6 cryptocurrencies and then withdrawn.
The real draw of this website is the "Mining Game". You use your accumulated "energy" and "dominance" to generate as much hashing power as possible. Every 5 minutes, a small amount of Energy and Dominance is restored to you. The hashing power you generate is used within the "mining simulator" game to produce SCOINS. You can then use these SCOINS rewards to exchange them for Bound Tokens, and then finally Bound Tokens can be exchanged for 1 of 6 cryptocurrencies and then withdrawn.
I know it all sounds quite confusing and complex at first, but once you start using the website it will make much more sense.
CryptoWin
Ending the B tier we have CryptoWin, a versatile crypto faucet site that has potential to go even higher up the tier list. I love the simple UI design, and I am huge sucker for a Dark mode option which this website provides. Also, I do not think I have ever experienced a pop-up or ad on this website; which is truly remarkable.
Every 15 minutes you are allowed to claim the faucet. CryptoWin also offers PTC ads, Offerwall tasks, a BTC Lottery, and a provably fair Hi-Lo dice game.
The most attractive part of CryptoWin for me is the option to buy "Shares" which will generate you passive income for the next 180 days; for each Share you purchase, you should expect to profit 1260 satoshis. I love features like this that allow you to invest what you have earned, for free, to earn even more free crypto.
C tier :
Earnbitmoon
Opening up C tier we have earnbitmoon. This Faucet allows you to claim every 5 minutes, sometimes it even has a happy hour where you can claim every 60 seconds. You can also earn via PTC ads, completing Shortlinks, Offerwall tasks, playing Games, answering Surveys, and buying tickets for a Lottery.
There is just something about this site that doesn't do it for me. I feel like the time to claim should be a little longer and you should be rewarded a little more. I am not sure who is out there claiming a faucet every 5 minutes, but there must be a few.
I enjoy the Daily Bonus feature of earnbitmoon. You just need to claim the Daily Bonus once per day, and you will receive a Coin bonus equivalent to the amount of days you have claimed in a row. The Daily Bonus used to cap at 100 coins, but it looks like it may be capping at 30 coins now. This would be a big blow to the only great feature on this website.
GraB.TC
I have a theory that GraB.TC and earnbitmoon are made or operated by the same company/owners. I say this because both sites have similar User Interfaces and site designs. Both websites basically offer the same features and ways of earning.
The main difference is that you can only claim the faucet every 60 minutes on GraB.TC, and there is no Daily Bonus feature. However, all the other features are there: the Offerwall tasks, the PTC ads, the Shortlinks, the Lottery, and the Surveys.
GraB.TC and earnbitmoon are not bad faucet websites by any stretch, but nothing that really stands out about them; and this is why they land themselves in the C tier.
PipeFlare
In my opinion, PipeFlare was the hardest to rank out of all the faucet sites. I ended up putting it in the C tier, but it is more like a C+. I intend to write about PipeFlare in a future mini-series, and take a more comprehensive look at the play-to-earn gaming platform.
Every 24 hours or so, PipeFlare allows you to individually claim ZEC, MATIC, and their own token 1FLR. However, the main draw of PipeFlare is the play-to-earn aspect. PipeFlare currently has 10 games in their online arcade, and has plans to reach 30 games by the end of 2022; however, I do not think that is realistic.
All of the games offer you a chance to earn crypto while playing them, with some games providing a Top Prize of 10 DAI, or even an NFT.
PipeFlare has even ventured into the NFT world themselves. You can win NFTs by playing the games, or by minting a Pyro NFT - for a current price of 85 MATIC. You can also earn Mystery Eggs by playing the PipeFlare games. These eggs can be redeemed for special prizes, maybe even a Pyro NFT. PipeFlare NFTs give you added perks in the PipeFlare ecosystem and will even allow you to earn more rewards.
I am extremely excited to see what PipeFlare does in the future, as I believe it has potential to one day be in the S tier.
D tier :
Satoshi Hero/Satoshi Monster
Satoshi Hero and Satoshi Monster are focused mostly on Casino games where you gamble your faucet earnings, or deposited Bitcoin. These D tier faucets appear to be run by the same company and if you sign-up for one site you automatically are able to use that login for the other site, or at least that's what happened for me.
The faucet aspect of these sites is done via the Fortune Wheel. All you need to do is spin the wheel, complete a CAPTCHA, and then boom the sats hit your balance. The cool thing about these websites, is that your Faucet Balance is linked together; both faucet wheels are adding into the same total Balance. You can also earn on Satoshi Hero/Satoshi Monster via Offerwalls and Surveys.
I am not a huge fan of sites that focus on Casino games and gambling. However, I will admit I am a slight hypocrite because I enjoy the Sports betting on freebitcoin.
LuckyDiamond
LuckyDiamond is not good. I considered putting it in the F tier, but I think that would be a little too harsh, so D tier it is. This "faucet" does allow you to claim it, however, you can only use the faucet earnings, from that one claim, to gamble and play casino games with.
If you have anything in your Balance at all, you will not be able to claim the "faucet". So all you are doing is refilling your gambling meter with a penny or so each time. I guess it technically would be considered a crypto faucet, but it really isn't one in my opinion.
The saving grace of LuckyDiamond is the Daily Reward. If you claim the Daily Reward 7 days straight, on the 6th and 7th days you will accumulate a total of $0.06 USDT.
With all this said, LuckyDiamond is more of a crypto gambling site than a crypto faucet site; and there are better options for both.
Trust Dice
Trust Dice is not much better than LuckyDiamond, BUT I do think it is slightly better. First off, you can claim the faucet every 6 hours and you are not limited if you have a Balance. You are also given the option to choose from 7 different cryptocurrencies when you claim the faucet.
I normally claim TXT, Trust Dice's own cryptocurrency token, because it can be used to Stake for EOS, USDT, BTC, and ETH rewards. You can also use the faucet earnings to gamble on casino games and Sports betting. Unfortunately, the Sports betting feature is not available to residents of the United States.
Almost exactly like Lucky Diamond, Trust Dice is more a crypto casino than a crypto faucet site.
F tier :
Allcoins.pw
I am not a fan of Allcoins.pw. I would even go as far as to say that this may be a scam site.
I used this site for almost a year just claiming the faucet and completing the PTC ads. Then one day I tried to withdraw my funds, the withdrawal processed, BUT my funds never arrived. When I reached out to "Support", I received no reply, and then a couple days later I was no longer able to log into my account.
I am sure most of you have heard or experienced something similar to this situation at least once on the internet or in the crypto world. However, this was my first experience of this happening with a Crypto Faucet site. Especially a crypto faucet that I would have put into C tier if I wasn't scammed out of my faucet earnings and account deleted. All of my faucet earnings no longer existed. All that time wasted.
Some of you may have great experiences with Allcoins.pw, however I am just here to state that I was having a great time until I wasn't.
