Bitcoin faucet was a website created by Gavin Andresen in 2010 designed to distribute "small" amounts of Bitcoin to users for free, which helped promote its use and accessibility. Gavin Andresen was one of the early contributors to the Bitcoin project and later became the lead developer after Satoshi Nakamoto's departure. Users could visit the faucet website and receive 5 bitcoins after completing a CAPTCHA verification. This incentivized more users to engage with the Bitcoin network. https://web.archive.org/web/20100703032414/http://freebitcoins.appspot.com/
