I am really new to the cryptocurrency world so I'm doing a lot of research at the moment.
One of the things I have found out about is the ability to get free cryptocoins. I have already joined coinfaucet.io and have earned 0.00439 ripple coins. Not a lot but you can have a look at them through the following link:
https://coinfaucet.io/Account?r=ksJ7mNv9bOL
If you decide to join and start earning then I do get a percentage as the link is my affiliate link.
Please be aware that the payouts are very small and there are a lot of popup ads. However if you join a few other faucet sites to get free Ripple then your coins will start to add up.
One site I have found is: cryptogiveaways.org
The great thing about this site is that there are no popup ads and they have 6 cryptocurrencies you can choose from. However there are only a limited number of free coins available each day so you need to get in fast.
Finally if you Google cryptocoin faucets or something similar you will be shown a range of sites where you can find more free coins.
Good lick with building up your wallets of cryptocurrencies.
