It's almost insulting that it's impossible to break even on bitcoin now actually, if we want world wide adoption to bitcoin why make it so impossible to obtain one? Why doesn't somebody start something that gives little bits (faucets immediate answer I know) of bitcoin but just enough to get people interested enough they don't lose sight of it?

I'm just relaying my own story but when I thought mining was actually profitable in 2011 and bitcoin was $14 a pop and I really didn't have the money to just go buy one, I could have used a faucet or something would have helped me out with that, I would have gone out and told all of my friends about bitcoin, maybe sound like a stark raving lunatic but still, I would have gone out of my way to show people this currency and the many others out there.

Now I'm even skeptical to mention it to anyone, even my ex thinks I'm crazy for wanting to invest in it.
