Currently, the most well-known way for people to get hold of a cryptocurrency is to buy it on an exchange with fiat currencies or through mining, but there are other ways you can earn cryptocurrency without getting out your wallet. 

Faucets

A “faucet”, is a website that rewards people with a cryptocurrency in exchange for performing a simple task. In other words, the user gets paid for completing a certain type of activity, such as signing up for a newsletter or viewing an ad. Websites have long offered a cash incentive in exchange for performing activities and tasks, now they are starting to adopt cryptocurrencies.
