i think so, since faucet site give a small reward it looks like wasting our time there, i prefer earned bitcoin from altcoin fucet like applebyte (now artbyte),and clams i can make much bitcoin from them, earned bitcoin from bitcoin's faucet it so hard except if you have a lot of referrals
Bitcoin faucet also paid out a lot more when they started. The difference between now and then is this :
~ There are millions of Bitcoin users now.
~ Bitcoin has increased in value
~ Early adopters mined a lot more coins and they were more willing to dish it out, because the value was low.
~ The goal of faucets then, was to increase adoption, now it shifted to a income potential for poor people.
~ There are also lots more faucet sites now, and a standard payout has been set by the bigger faucets.
The Alt coin faucets are now in the early Bitcoin stage, where they need to make bigger faucet payouts to increase adoption.
unfortunately iam not a early adopter, so i couldn't earn much bitcoin from them i've tried a lot of faucet like freebitco, moonbitco, landofbitco etc but its so hard to make 1$, and then i found altcoin faucet, i've earned much coin was, when the price is low, so far just earned bitcoin from my referrals on freebitcoin
