I built a crypto side-hustle business that generated $14k in sales, and now I'm looking for its next owner
I've always liked the idea of selling shovels during a gold rush rather than trying to find gold myself. ReadyFaucet is basically my attempt at doing that in crypto.
It's a ready-to-deploy crypto faucet business that I've been selling as a license, and so far, 13 license sales have generated over $14,000 in revenue. Every single sale came from organic Reddit posts, no paid ads.
Here's the interesting part: I'm not selling crypto, trading meme coins, or asking anyone to gamble their savings. I'm selling the infrastructure that lets someone launch their own crypto faucet website.
The business model is pretty old but pretty much straightforward and proven. The website can generate revenue through three streams: ads, sponsorships, and affiliate offers or offerwalls. You're essentially operating a crypto-related website rather than betting your money on which coin pumps next.
It's a high ticket licensable setup, with discounts available for multiple licenses, so even 1 sale a month can make decent improvement to your overall bottom line. Deployment and setup typically cost around $100, including the domain and development fee, so there's a potentially attractive margin per sale (93%+)
Of course, the website still needs to be operated, traffic needs to be built, and revenue isn't guaranteed. But the fact that I've already sold 13 licenses gives the model a real sales history rather than just a business idea sitting in a Notion document.
I'm now focusing on other ventures with much bigger scale, so I'm exploring selling ReadyFaucet along with some other assets, rather than continuing to grow them myself.
I think there's an interesting opportunity here for someone who understands digital products, crypto communities, or organic Reddit marketing. You could continue selling the licenses, improve the marketing funnel, or expand the product in directions I haven't had time to explore. You can even recruit affiliates who can post on your behalf and take 15-20% per sale.
If the whole "sell the shovels" approach appeals to you more than trading crypto yourself, happy to share more details about the product, sales history, and what's included.
