Today's "free coin" is aelf, which is pretty exciting considering it's a top 100 coin that is still rewarding early adopters. They are rewarding people who actively engage and/or promote their platform and official Twitter account. You can earn free aelf by simply interacting with their Twitter account, which I've done for a couple of minutes over the past week and have earned over a coin so far.
Aelf is a decentralized cloud computing network. The rely on side chains, which is a really interesting concept. Read more here: https://www.forbes.com/sites/shermanlee/2018/02/07/explaining-side-chains-the-next-breakthrough-in-blockchain/#4e41c68652eb

The Coin
I like the team and the overall potential of this project, however, I have yet to find clear information on the use and actual value of the aelf coin. Their website (https://aelf.io/) does not make this clear, which is concerning. If you have been able to find information on this aspect of aelf, please post in the comments below.
Potential
The aelf team has huge goals in trying to decentralize cloud computing (which is more centralized than most of us think). They have an experienced team with a lot of backing from investors in China. They have also done a great job of utilizing marketing to build a following behind their project.
To be 100% honest with you, I do not yet understand enough to invest a significant amount of the money I have set aside for cryptocurrency investments, but I have invested time into learning about their efforts and earning a coin or two of aelf.
Bounty Requirements
As you'll see in the video below, you will need to sign up for their promotional platform (candy.elf.io) and then help promote aelf by engaging with their Twitter account (@aelfblockchain). You also need to have an ERC20 compatible wallet (I use MyEtherWallet) in order to receive your coins after this promotion is over. Only provide your public key, which should start with a 0 (never give out your private key).
See the video below for a walkthrough.

What Is Free Coin of the Day?
Free Coin of the Day (FCOTD) is a new effort I'm launching to help other amateur cryptocurrency enthusiasts like myself get involved in cryptos without having to spend thousands of dollars. Each day we'll pick one coin to cover, and I'll give you specifics on how to earn that coin for free. Please upvote this post and follow me if you're interested in joining this new effort.
Get More Free Coins
This is the fourth #FCOTD post. I released a little early since tomorrow is Valentine's Day and I want to spend time with the family instead of posting all day. Past free coins that you may or may not still be able to grab include:
