GPT and PTC List for Bitcoin and Altcoins

How GPT, PTC, and Similar Sites Work

GPT (Get Paid to) sites work in a very simple way:

1. after a quick free registration, you select the type of task you want to complete, such as watching sponsored videos, signing up for offers, answering surveys, or installing an app;
2. you then complete the selected task: the time required varies depending on the type of task, and generally, the longer and more complicated it is, the more it pays;
3. once the selected task has been completed, you may receive a variable number of points, which accumulate in your account balance. These points can then be automatically or manually converted into the digital currency offered by the platform;
4. generally, the withdrawal of cryptocurrency from the GPT dashboard to your address is subject to reaching a minimum threshold, known as the payout threshold. Once this threshold is reached, you can usually receive the payment within a few days at most.

In addition to surveys, the tasks most commonly offered by GPT sites generally include:

• signing up for offers, meaning free registration on websites or for various promotions;
• completing tasks, such as clicking certain links and performing searches;
• entering data, meaning typing short phrases or words into specific fields;
• watching videos, which generally contain advertisements;
• installing apps, such as video games that require free registration to play.

GPT sites also do not impose any contractual commitments or obligations, but usually have only a few requirements, most of which are common-sense rules. These may include operating in English, allowing no more than one account per user, and, in some cases and for specific tasks, requiring the browser window to remain focused, meaning it must be open as the active window on the screen (usually for links that need to be clicked).

As mentioned above, in addition to websites offering all the various types of tasks, there are also many different types of GPT platforms, each with a different name depending on the specific task required of the user in exchange for digital currency. Here is a quick overview of these platforms and a brief explanation of how they work.

PTC (Paid to Click)

There are many sites that pay cryptocurrency for simply clicking links. Payment is made after visiting the linked sponsor website, which remains open for a predetermined number of seconds while a countdown runs. Once the countdown ends, you are usually required to complete a simple quiz or Captcha to verify that you have been paying attention to the page. The longer the required visit time, the greater the reward.

PTR (Paid to Read)

These sites often pay Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies for reading emails, but also, as with Cointiply, for viewing articles or watching videos from other advertiser websites. The reward is issued after claiming it on the page being viewed, once a certain amount of time has elapsed.

PTS (Paid to Surveys)

PTS platforms are very well known, as they were already widely used before the emergence of cryptocurrencies, with payments made in traditional currencies, mostly dollars. These are paid survey sites where users are asked to complete questionnaires of varying lengths. The language is usually localized to the user’s location, which in our case means Italian, while the reward varies depending on the length and complexity of the survey. Finally, each questionnaire generally requires users to qualify in order to verify that their profile matches the requirements of the research.

PTSF (Paid to Surf)

A PTSF is a platform that pays users in Bitcoin to browse sponsored websites. The surfing can be automatic or manual, as can the browser window focus.

Paid to Play

Finally, there are Paid to Play platforms, which pay their members in cryptocurrency to play a specific game for entertainment.

GPT vs. Faucets

Both Faucets and GPT sites, along with mining, are ways to earn cryptocurrency for free. Another similarity between the two types of sites is that the reward in Bitcoin or other digital currencies is provided in exchange for minimal effort from the user.

However, there are several differences when comparing faucets and GPT sites. While faucets generally require users to solve a simple Captcha or Antibot challenge before receiving cryptocurrency, GPT sites require users to complete a task that, although easy, requires somewhat more attention and time. For example, if a faucet requires 2 Captchas, an Antibot challenge, and a Shortlink, you can claim your reward in a maximum of 2 or 3 minutes. By comparison, the shortest survey on a GPT site takes at least 10 minutes, while installing an app on your smartphone, registering, and playing it until reaching the required level can take a similar amount of time.

On the one hand, this difference in effort represents an advantage for Get Paid To sites in terms of the amount rewarded. For example, while a faucet claim may pay an average of 30 satoshis of Bitcoin, a ten-minute survey may be worth around 15 points at 30 satoshis each, for a total of 450 satoshis of BTC. On the other hand, however, in the event of a GPT scam, the greater effort invested in reaching the payout threshold would result in a more significant loss in terms of time invested than could ever occur with a faucet that fails to pay.

In conclusion, therefore, we favor faucets over GPT, PTC, and similar sites as the better way to earn Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, because they require less effort and are less damaging in terms of wasted time if a scam occurs.
