Title: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: Instaclasher56 on February 16, 2016, 06:07:57 AM I've been thinking for a while and I've been wondering about Paid (not free) bitcoin faucets. If everyone had to pay a monthly fee on say $5-$10 and payed around 2000-10000 satoshi every 2 hours it could make an amazing profit! There would be no ads (maybe one or two on certain pages) and a high payout so people can gain money quite fast. You can also donate and invest in the faucet as well which gives you a bigger claim rate! Here is a quick description of the site:
Welcome to (Faucet Name Here)! We are a paid faucet with little to no ads so you can claim high amounts without the annoying ads in the way! We have pay 2,000-10,000 satoshi per claim every 2 hours! The more you donate to the site the slightly bigger payouts you get! Donate 100 to 1000 bits and you get a 1.8 multiplier so you get 1.8x the normal claim! Donate 1000-10,000 and you get 2x the normal claim! More fetuses will be added soon as we grow but we hope you enjoy the faucet! Our prices are 2,000-10,000 satoshi per claim is $5-$10 per month and 4,000-20,000 is $10-$20 per month! It is a very small idea and I need some advice on if you like the idea or not. Please reply so I can get back to the drawing board of just publish this thing! Thanks! Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it?

Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: Rescue Squad on February 16, 2016, 06:55:06 AM People with little to no money go to faucets to win dust in the first place. I don't think imposing a $5 fee to get better reward will entice anyone.

Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: NorrisK on February 16, 2016, 07:05:07 AM The money has to come from somewhere.. Are you counting on people paying and than claiming less than they paid? Otherwise you have a hole in your balance..
It sounds basically like a pay 5 usd, get 10 usd in a week ponzi scheme. Only this time you call it premium faucet to draw in new people. Anyway, you can always try to launch one. People are greedy and will likely try it out. Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it?

Anyway, you can always try to launch one. People are greedy and will likely try it out. Indeed... I was wondering the same thing: what would be your business model? In order for you to make money, there are only a couple options: - break your promise, and do put up adds, while lowering the payout - make it so hard to claim that the majority of your users pay a $5 monthly fee, but only claim $1... - take as much money as you can and run without paying out your users Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: crazyivan on February 16, 2016, 07:11:34 AM How would this make profit with no ads? From ponzi payments? Enough with that shit.

Faucets are there for people that are too lazy to do real work and have no money. It's hard to pay when they have nothing.

Post by: pinoycash on February 16, 2016, 07:27:56 AM Paid to Claim in short... the faucets is just a smoke screen on the ponzi... better say it upfront so no surprises at the end of the day

Post by: Whosdaddy on February 16, 2016, 07:33:41 AM Faucet or Paid to Click service usually do not pays a user to the time and effort required. Still there are many faucets and PTC sites survive. I believe there many people still clicking/claiming after their main work or just to kill time.

Thanks! in other words your plan is this: - create a website - ask people to pay you money - pay them back little by little over a long time ok. now can you explain what is the difference between your idea and a ponzi scheme website except the name? Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: CryptoYeti on February 16, 2016, 07:52:50 AM This is going against the whole idea of a faucet in the first place. The original intent was to promote adoption of a coin, by giving out small amounts of it to the community at large to encourage them to explore and use the coin. By offering a small amount, it at minimum necessitated that the users create a wallet and at least work through the basic process of sending and receiving transactions. Once they had these basics down, many of them may be inclined to stick around and become members of the coin community.
At least that was the basic premise during early Bitcoin, and to some extent early alt-coin (such as LTC) days. As the cryptocurrency world gained interest, the value of the coins began to increase such that relying on generosity or donations to fund a faucet was becoming harder and harder. This coupled with the fact that scammers looking to make multiple claims were draining the faucets quickly, made the need for some other form of funding, thus advertisements. At first this was kind of ok, but over time the needs of faucet operators have grown over the spirit of the faucet concept and the faucets became laden with ads, paid out little to nothing, and had many hurdles such as weird captchas to overcome. Granted some of this was in direct result due to the bots hammering the faucets for a free payday, but in the end for the average user the original intent of the faucet is long gone. The time it take to accumulate enough to not be eaten up by transaction fees, cost more in electricity running the computer than you will receive. Wow, this seemed to quickly turn into a rant. Anyway, the takeaway is no, I think this idea is not at all a faucet but more akin to a ponzi as others already have pointed out. Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: Lutzow on February 16, 2016, 08:00:48 AM Unless you'll invest the collected fee in a truthful way like trading then distribute your earnings to the users so they can get more than what they paid for, it could fail in one point or another. Nice idea though if true.
Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: Mitchell on February 16, 2016, 08:04:50 AM I used to sell my custom faucet. Trust me, it's not worth the hassle. ;)
Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: calkob on February 16, 2016, 08:36:37 AM Is what you explain not the defination of a Ponzi scheme, How can a person ever get back more than they have put in unless you paying them with the deposits from new entrants to the faucet,
dosnt make sense man give up on this one........ ;D Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: lottoitaliano on February 16, 2016, 11:51:34 AM i don't understand the sense of faucet with payment.
faucet is free, is a method for newbie have a little bit of bitcoin and understand how work bitcoin and for the refhunter to have many ref for earn. Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: FaucetRank.com on February 16, 2016, 12:19:55 PM paid faucet have no sense but if you have a game with upgrade option then it's diffrent thing .
Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: creepland on February 16, 2016, 01:20:50 PM Nah there are lot of faucets. Ands it feels like ponzi scheme.
Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: Instaclasher56 on February 17, 2016, 06:42:24 AM Sounds like a ponzi scam. This isn't real and if I made it why would it be a ponzi? Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: Nomad88 on February 17, 2016, 06:48:32 AM I think your biggest issue would be gaining trust for new users. It is a fact most people will be doubthful atfirst. Other than that, it is hard to say wether it would work or not. Obviously it was never tried before.

Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: LaStOpTi0N on February 17, 2016, 06:50:46 AM paid faucet have no sense but if you have a game with upgrade option then it's diffrent thing . Yeah a game like farmsatoshi and faucet like smashbtc. But please make something new with free membership not forced upgrade only interesting person will upgrade or buy.

Ofcourse if you build up trust it will be more easy for you to accomplish your target & one of best way to build trust is free membership as i said in my last post.

Never tried so how would it be a ponzi! Thank you for the feedback! NP. I have an idea. If you accept payments via paypal, you might attract more people as it might be an alternative, easy way of buy some extra bitcoin with couple dollars people have in their paypal account. Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: pedrog on February 17, 2016, 11:07:28 AM You can call it the Ponzi Faucet, hey look, domain is available http://ponzifaucet.com/ .
Go wild! Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: SFR10 on February 17, 2016, 11:23:39 AM The whole purpose of users trying faucets are getting fractions of BTCitcoin for free in the first place, without the need to invest anything beforehand and what your trying to do here is and will most likely just another way to get money and runaway unless you let an escrow hold all the funds (but still I doubt people will use this type of faucets over the existing types). Btw the premium price your asking is very high.
Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: elson on February 17, 2016, 11:35:12 AM Sounds like a ponzi scam. With no ads he can only pay as much as the user pays so no profit :-) Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it?

Please reply so I can get back to the drawing board of just publish this thing! Thanks! The point of using faucets was to give newbies some free coins to play with and see what's the bitcoin transaction about. Since bitcoin became expensive, the faucets give much less money than necessary to start a transaction. First conclusion: even now 99.99% of the free faucets are completely pointless. (the rest offer some entertainment, like playing dice on the money "earned" from the faucet) Now, making a faucets the users pay to use ... makes no sense. People can buy Bitcoin directly. Second conclusion: your faucet idea is something between a Ponzi and something completely useless. Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: apoorvlathey on February 17, 2016, 11:53:01 AM This wouldn't work as Faucets are meant to collect Free BTC. By paying users would not be interested as the amount they claim would be the same that they deposited (in the initial period and then like a ponzi site)
Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: FaucetRank.com on February 17, 2016, 03:54:13 PM Sounds like a ponzi scam. With no ads he can only pay as much as the user pays so no profit :-) If with ads faucets are dying then how will this faucet alive without any advertisements ? Title: Re: If Me or someone else made a Premium Paid Faucet would you use it? Post by: mrcash02 on February 17, 2016, 04:28:28 PM I like the idea, but looks a bit impossible to make it profitable for you and for users. Surely you would must add advertises to boost your income.
But anyway, it's not a good offer to claim every 2 hours to earn maybe 10% over your 5 dollars investiment monthly. A game with upgrades and realistic rewards would be better. Offers with upgrades like 100 satoshi per minute generator never works on long term! |
