Free Gridcoin - How to get free gridcoin online


There are several ways to gather free gridcoins or GRC online to start or increase your gridcoin wallet balance. Many new people just getting into researching gridcoin ask where they can get some. Unlike bitcoin BTC, there are not a lot of free gridcoin faucets.

Right now, especially if you are new to gridcoin and are setting up your wallet, going to the IRC Chat is an excellent way to get free gridcoin.


Gridcoin wallet balance
Inside the IRC Chat is a free game that you can play, where you do nothing, yes, NOTHING to get free coins. The game is called Gridcoin Idle RPG and is started by simply opening the channel inside the IRC chat when you first get there. The instructions to play the Gridcoin Idle RPG include a link to player stats, and reward you (see rewards) for your idleness.

Inside the gridcoin IRC chat, you will find that on a regular basis, people come into the chat and "make it rain" gridcoin. The tipbot inside the IRC includes a system where anyone can tip anyone else in the channel. In addition, members of the chat can make it rain gridcoin on a number of active participants at one time.

If you join the IRC chat, you might find not only very helpful people willing to answer questions to help you set up your gridcoin wallet, but also point you to resources for boinc, and give you suggestions on equipment.




There is a one time free donation from the gridcoin community to help you get started, called the Gridcoin Pool. There are specific things you must do to use the pool, and it is a one time only thing, but it may give you a nice donation to help you get started.




Here are two links to Cryptspout's free gridcoin faucet - Hourly (1 time per hour) - Daily (1 time per 24 hours) .  This has been a consistent and reliable source of free gridcoin for me, and it pays quickly. You can set your own limits on what balance you want to build up before they pay you as well.

Another great source for starter coins is to ask established gridcoin researchers for coins on the forums. Starter Coins for Beginners at Cryptocointalk, where you can introduce yourself, post your wallet address, and request coins.

Once you have your gridcoin wallet up and running, and are running boinc doing research, consider joining the pool. Even if you have few gridcoin ( GRC ) and relatively low magnitude, you will be able to start getting payments earlier then if you went solo. A low gridcoin ( GRC ) balance and a low magnitude makes it hard to start generating coins, the pool helps offset that. New Gridcoin.co Pool ( currently Beta ) 

Finally is the Gridcoin Asia Faucet - You can get between 0.1 and 1.0 gridcoin every 6 hours!

I hope you find these links to free gridcoin faucet and donation links useful. Good luck and welcome to gridcoin !!
