Bitcoin faucet - Cointiply review

Well I didn't think I'd be back here talking about faucets!

For those who don't know, a Bitcoin faucet is a site that gives away free Bitcoins (or fractions there of!). The catch is usually lots of adverts, and a time limit on how often you can "claim".

So why am I writing about faucets again?

Well I'm out of work at the moment, and have been clicking around, and rejecting a lot of naff sites... but then I came across Cointiply, and liked it.

What Cointiply offers


  • You need to register (I don't normally go in for that, but the reviews show a long paying out site)
  • It pays all games/features out as "Coins" in your site wallet. 1 coin is one USD cent such that the amount of Bitcoin (BTC) you'll get on payout will be based on the exchange rate at the time. This protects you from falls in the value of Bitcoin until you're ready to cashout.
  • Cashout is from $3.50. I've got to $1 within an afternoon of clicking in the background.
  • There's a few ways to "earn"
    • Simple faucet, time limited to every 60 minutes. Although it claims the "roll of a dice" can give higher, I've won $0.40 of "Coins" each time. 
    • Videos to watch, worth 5 cents each generally it seems
    • Multiplier - basically a simply luck game to increase your funds. Now I never trust these, even when (like Cointiply) they provide the odds. I've been very successful on this up to 5000 coins in my account (winning more than half of games, which obviously is too good to be true!)... after this, I'm convinced the odds got worse. I'm continuing to experiment, to see if there is something other than luck going on here!
    • Website clicks to follow, or "autosurf". I've mainly used the autosurf, as it seemed the fastest way to earn as background activity

Scam or Legit site?

Reading on forums, it looks like people are getting active payouts. To be honest, I've not reached the minimum value for a payout yet. But given the reviews online, and the fact I'm a third of the way there in one afternoon... I felt I had to share.

Will try to remember to update this if I request a payout, to let others know.


For now, if you'd like a small bit of Bitcoin, I'd recommend signing up and having a play... no harm if you just play with the free money you earn.

Update following CobexTrade

Well its not been the best start to the new year. My favourite e-Currency site, Liberty Reserve, seems to be coming under sustained DDOS attacks, making the site sometimes hard to access. But worse still, CobexTrade has gone. CobexTrade is a reminder (not that I wanted one!) that HYIPs are not just High Yield, but also High Risk. These sites come and go, and even with a very high reputation, CobexTrade has died. So what now? Well I still have some other funds, partly earned on the GoldAge forum , which I don't think I've mentioned here before. GoldAge is a forum dedicated to investors on HYIPs etc... and it actually pays its members for posting! Not a lot admittedly, but its nice to earn at the same time as get good advice from fellow HYIP investors. Here's my current portfolio...small as it is again now: BreInvest Sochi-Invest.org Golden Purse CobexTrade has been an unpleasant reminder not to get too secure a feeling from HYIPs...I lost a lot of my egold there...but lesson...

How I'm protecting my investments from a stock market crash

Whilst I don't believe market forecasters have a crystal ball, it's clear that over the last two years Coronavirus, radical political leaders, and now a potential energy crisis have unsettled businesses and market investors alike. As markets dropped in the early part of the pandemic, I bought into some generalised funds, as the recovery seems relatively predictable. As we move back towards normality however, things are less predictable, and questions remain about the stability of markets, and whether stocks are now over-priced. So where do we go from here? Remind yourself of your goals Whilst "profit" is an obvious goal for investors, the timeline for this profit is more unique to the investor. Those getting close to retirement will likely have a different appetite for risk than those in their 20's. It's important to work out your own appetite for risk. For me, my appetite for risk has grown has I've become more confident in my approach. My goal is however...

Get paid to use Yahoo Search Engine!

Wow, well I knew one of these days that I'm come across a good money maker that I'd missed. Well this is that moment. Rather tragically, I came across MySearchFunds.com some years back and ignored it (I forget why, but I wasn't on my quest for money making ideas back then). Well MySearchFunds.com, which has now changed its name to Homepage Friends (a rather naff name change if you ask me), pays you to search the web. This used to be through Google, but they have recently switched over to Yahoo as their search provider. But nothing really changes. You goto your search page (set as your homepage for ease) e.g. mine is: http://www.myhpf.co.uk/mypage.asp?OrgID=87564 All the then have to do is use the search box to search with Yahoo. The results are no different to Yahoo's normal results, and you end up with about 2.4p (that's about $0.048) per search. At the rate I'm going, I'll have about £250 ($500) this year from the site... that makes my quest for...
