If you guys want to gamble, go to a place that has a low house edge, ETC primedice. This is the best way not to lose all your coins instantly Cheesy

I think they're really for different purposes. It's not possible to deposit coins into Freebitco.in. Hence any losses would be in the order of cents.

In fact, freebitco.in has been taking deposits for quite some time already. Just go to the "multiply BTC" page and you can get your deposit address after clicking the deposit button.
I don't think anyone would be silly enough to play here with deposits, but who knows?

Oh wow, I didn't realize that they added this option. Just checked my account and you're right. I haven't really used faucets that much recently so I didn't notice it was there.

And yeah, it would probably be silly to gamble anything significant since the house edge is 5% vs. 1% for most other dice sites.

Best and first faucet site that i join and still paying until now..

Why u not create others coin beside btc and doge?

Because there is not really market for other coins. Other altcoins users will have bitcoin for sure every time, while bitcoin users won't have say: PayCoin, DarkCoin, Monero and dozen of other altcoins.
That is why - only bitcoin faucets are sufficient and bitcoin alone more than enough.

Freebitco.in has enormous brand awareness compared to other faucets so altcoin versions of it could be reasonably popular. Especially if the altcoin is a fairly popular one like Litecoin. According to this thread, almost 1/3rd of altcoin owners don't own any bitcoins at all. The number is also probably even higher for certain altcoins like Nxt which aim to supplant BTC.

It's wired that this faucet thread haven't been moved to "Investor-based games" section? Just because it contains a gambling part?

The "Investor based games" section is intended for ponzi games. Most faucet announcements are posted in the Service Announcements board. This one has gambling features so I guess wetsuit thought it would be more appropriate here. Primedice also has a faucet and supports gambling but in PD's case, their importance is reversed.

Yes its nice but honestly its not worth the hassle at all unless you want some satoshi to play around with. Maybe in some 3rd world country its worth going thru all that trouble for fractions of a penny.

The amounts involved from a faucet or a bunch of faucets might be worthwhile for someone who earns less than $1 a day (20% of the population apparently) but it's unlikely that these people would have Internet access. For those who earn more than this, it wouldn't really be worth it unless they were able to build up lots of referrals.
