GraB.TC preliminary thoughts

GraB.TC is a website for earning bitcoin, or more precisely, satoshi, which are small fractions of a bitcoin. GraB.TC has an hourly faucet, PTC ads, shortlinks, offers, and various mini-jobs you can do to earn satoshi.

I won't be upgrading this to a full review and guide until I can successfully withdraw, but based on positive reviews and payment proofs I have seen, I believe GraB.TC is legitimate and not a scam. Minimum withdrawal for people with Faucetpay accounts is 5,000 satoshi (0.00005 bitcoin). Minimum withdrawal without Faucetpay is 20,000 satoshi (0.0002 bitcoin). Since Faucetpay is not available in my country, I will have to earn 20,000 satoshi on GraB.TC before I can withdraw.

The Faucet

You can roll the faucet on GraB.TC once per hour. As of the time I am updating this paragraph, the minimum value of a faucet roll is somewhere between 2 and 3 satoshi, but there is approximately an 11% chance of rolling higher. Additionally, by making many faucet claims, you can level up to earn multipliers on your faucet rolls, maxing out at a 3x (300%) faucet multiplier after having made 100,000 claims.

This screenshot was taken with a multiplier of 1.02 on January 28, 2021. As you can see, the minimum amount from a roll, at a 1.02 multiplier, is 2.42 bits, but it's possible to earn much more from a high roll.

Roll example: Congratulations, your lucky number was 99,318 and you won 49.83 Bits!

Paid to Click Advertisements (PTC Ads)

You can earn additional satoshi by clicking on PTC ads on GraB.TC. This are quick and easy, and the captcha simply requires you to pick the image that is not like the others. I did notice that the PTC ads didn't work for me in my usual cryptocurrency earning browser, Microsoft Edge Beta. However, they worked fine once I swapped to Chrome.

Here is an example of the sort of captcha you have to solve after clicking on PTC ads on GraB.TC.

Offerwalls

GraB.TC offers a variety of offerwalls, such as BitsWall and TheoremReach, which you can use to earn more satoshi. Some of these are the same offerwalls you can also find on other cryptocurrency earning websites.

Jobs

GraB.TC offers a variety of mini-jobs you can do for additional satoshi. For example, people who have never used Brave browser before can download and install Brave using GraB.TC's referral link, use it for at least 30 days, and submit evidence to GraB.TC, for 2,000 satoshi. A number of other jobs involve helping to promote GraB.TC in a variety of ways.

Shortlinks

Shortlinks, within the context of earning cryptocurrency, are a type of puzzle where you must navigate ads, pop-ups, etc. in order to find buttons that eventually take you to a particular landing page.

There are two major things to be careful of when doing shortlinks. First, make sure you have a malware blocker. You don't want to have an adblocker on the browser or browser profile that you use for earning cryptocurrency, because ad revenue is how many sites earn money so they can pay you cryptocurrency, but if you plan on doing shortlinks, you do want a malware blocker. (For some help on configuring a malware blocker, see step 3 of this guide.) Also, if any file makes it past your malware blocker and gets downloaded on your computer while you are doing shortlinks, delete it without running it or opening it. Also, if you are a Windows user (as opposed to Mac, Linux, or BSD), make sure you have some sort of anti-virus or malware scanner you can use, just in case.

Also, shortlinks sometimes have content that is not safe for work. I haven't extensively tested all of them to see if maybe some of them are safe for work, but if you wish to avoid not safe for work content, I recommend you either avoid shortlinks, or else ask someone more knowledgeable if there are any that are reliably p**n-free. Alternatively, you could try a p**n-blocker, but I am not sure if you will still be allowed to complete shortlinks or not while running a p***-blocker, nor do I know of any good p***-blockers to recommend.

Additionally, some websites may try to get you to agree to receive notifications from them while you are doing shortlinks. While notifications are fairly harmless, they can be annoying, so make sure you are familiar with how to disable notifications from websites in your browser, after having accidentally allowed them.

However, if you are okay with possibly viewing adult content, and are confident in your ability to protect your computer from malware, you might want to do shortlinks to earn extra satoshi on GraB.TC.

When I tested them all, I was unable to figure out how to complete linkad.in, bitcoinly.in, savelink.site, cuturl.in, cashurl.in, or bigb0ss.net, but I was able to figure out the rest. Note that the rewards screenshotted below are a bit out of date.



Referrals

If you are good at promoting GraB.TC to your friends and other people, referrals are another way to earn satoshi on GraB.TC. You will earn 12% of the value of your referral's faucet claims, 3% of the value of their offerwalls earnings and 1% of the value of their shortlinks earnings. Your referral still earns the full value of those things, so GraB.TC pays 112% the value of the faucet claims (100% to the referral and 12% to you), for example.

My referral link is:

and I have included it in this blog post.

Is GraB.TC safe for work?

So far as I have seen, the faucet portion of GraB.TC is safe for work in the sense of being p**n-free, although some of the ads on the faucet are somewhat borderline. So far, I have never seen any p*** on the PTC ads, although I haven't tested those as extensively as the faucet. Most of the shortlinks are probably not safe for work. Using GraB.TC while at work is probably a bad idea for other reasons - you should probably be focused on your job while at work (then again, maybe you spend a lot of time waiting for customers to walk in) - but there are other reasons someone might ask this, like if they sometimes use the computer while their family is around, or if they have very strong religious, moral, or emotional objections to content that is not generally considered safe for work.

For more ways to earn cryptocurrency online, see these other reviews and guides by me:

For a VPN with a browser-only option, meaning you can use it for your non-crypto-earning browser or browsers but not for the browser or browsers you use for claiming from faucets and earning cryptocurrency in other ways, see my Windscribe review. Please remember not to use Windscribe in the browser or browsers you use for earning on GraB.TC or other faucets or crypto-earning websites. Windscribe is a VPN. However, it is useful for other purposes, like keeping your politics private from your ISP.
