Long time ago I noticed that ReCaptcha does not stop bots. So I started using FunCaptcha, but after some time bots again managed to steal from my faucet.
This is probably the fault of the script, not captcha system.

Recaptcha is already replaced by funcaptcha by many site owners already. They are vulnerable towards bots and autoclaimers. I am using funcaptcha from the start rather than recaptcha.

Heard more good story's about fun captcha then recaptcha. The automatic captcha solving software done by humans can't be wrong most of time. So this problem is hard to solve for most faucets.

This have been the case since couple of month back and ever since ReCaptcha have been pretty much useless for fighting off bots. As some have advised FunCaptcha, I would like to say that it's not an exception as well and bots have got in as well. So far what I'm noticing is users who use faucetbox script are mostly affected by bots so I think some modification is needed on script for sure and lastly don't even bother to use those click buttons here and there before get reward buttons pops out because that won't fight off bots as well. The code itself is the problem here.

I totally agree with that. If someone is using FaucetBox script - there is no captcha that will help.

By switching captchas is possible to get only temporary effects - maybe max for a few days. Sooner or later bots will attack script and it will clear faucet.

Edit: Only blocking bots by IP or all lists of wallet addresses can help.

Faucetbox Should Support More Captcha Services . Like captcha24 and something else.

Add system to click on numbers or words in sequence, it gives you extra protection.

Guys, first OP have to say which script is using. If this is FaucetBox script - any kind of captcha will not help. Maybe for other type of websites, but not for faucets.

Only direct blocking proxies, IP or wallets addresses can stop bots.
