Free Nano · the faucet
The Nano faucet
Paste the address of a new wallet and claim Ӿ0.001, free. Below the faucet: how it works, its limits and your questions.
1 Get a wallet
Free wallets that hold Nano. Have one already? Go to step 2.
2 Your wallet's address
A small Nano wallet that lives only in this browser.
- Your browser makes its key from its own random numbers. The key stays on this device; nano133 never sees it.
- It sends only your address and signed payments to the network, never the key.
- Clearing this browser's data deletes the purse and its Nano. Keep only small amounts in it.
The key comes from nanocurrency-web, an open-source library. Check it yourself: open your browser's developer tools, then the Network tab, and make the purse. No request carries the key.
3 Claim it
For adults. One claim per wallet; new wallets only.
Anyone can keep the free airdrops going.
How it works
1 Get a wallet
A wallet is an app that holds your Nano and keeps your key on your own device. The faucet lists free ones.
2 Paste or scan your address
Copy the address from your wallet, or point your camera at its QR code. An address is public: it is safe to share.
3 Ӿ0.001 arrives in under a second
The network confirms the payment at once. The page shows its block: the public record, which anyone can look up.
The limits, in plain words
- Ӿ0.001each claim.
- 1claim for each wallet, ever. The wallet must be new: it has never held Nano.
- 1claim a day on each device.
- 3claims a day from one network (a home, a school, an office).
- 200claims a day for everyone together. The day starts again at 00:00 UTC.
For adults. A short check shows that you are a person, not a program. When the day's claims are gone, or the wallet is empty, the faucet says so.
What can I do with Ӿ0.001?
Less than one US cent: enough to try a real payment of your own.
It does not pay for a 1¢ arcade round: a cent is usually more than Ӿ0.001. For more Nano, see where to buy it.
Where the Nano comes from
The faucet is one Nano wallet of its own, apart from every other wallet of nano133. nano133 fills it, and anyone can add to it: a refill earns no tickets and no prize. Its address is public, so every payment in and out is on the ledger.
Nobody makes new Nano: all of it exists already. The early Nano was given out the same way, by a faucet: see The Faucet Era.

For learning, not for income
- A first payment to learn with: see it arrive, see its block, send it on.
- Not a way to earn money.
- Not advice to buy Nano, and no promise about its price.
Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. You pay nothing and there is no fee. You need only a Nano address from a wallet. The faucet sends Ӿ0.001 to it.
Why only Ӿ0.001?
The faucet is here to show you how a Nano payment arrives, not to pay you. A small amount lets it serve many people: up to 200 a day.
It says my wallet already has Nano. What now?
The faucet sends only to an address that the Nano network has never seen. Make a new wallet, or a new account in your wallet app, and use that address. One exception: when you are signed in and paid for a 1¢ arcade round or an Unlock in the last 30 days, your own signed-in address can claim.
I claimed, but my wallet shows nothing.
Open your wallet. If the amount shows as pending, tap it or tap receive. Nano needs your wallet to take a payment in. The block on the page is the proof that the faucet sent it.
Can I claim again?
No. One claim for each wallet, ever. A device gets one claim a day, and one network (a home, a school, an office) gets 3 a day.
Who pays for it?
nano133 fills the faucet's wallet, and anyone can add to it: a refill takes any amount from Ӿ0.0001. The wallet is public, so you can see every payment in and out.
