I saw a post on one of the fountains saying that microwallet.org (http://microwallet.org) is shutting down.  Does anybody know if that's true and what will happen to all of the faucets that use them as a micropayment system?  Move to xapo.com (http://xapo.com) maybe?

it was going to shut down but the founder has said it will not be shut down untill there is suitable amount of competition. so id say its not going to shut down anytime soon

It is a nice service for collecting from faucets, it would be pity if it is shutting down. It has been down for 18 hours though:
http://www.isitdownrightnow.com/microwallet.org.html

the website is currently up isitdownrightnow has a funny issue

They had some server issues before but it's fine now. I didn't heard anything about shutdown yet. ???

I think it is going to shut down.

One of my online earning site, Coingamez.com told me the same too.

To reduce the lost of my earning, I stopped using it.

Unless my pending payment has been processed, then only I shall consider to resume it.

Hello ev1 :)

I've just registered and it is my first post. I don't know if it is in the right place.
I have a problem and maybe I am not the only one.

On last Saturday, I requested cashout from microwallet.org. It has appeared the message that the amount will be paid within 7 days, but no cashout request date or a change in the number of days. So, if you don't keep track, you have no idea if the days have passed or not.
The point is that today is Friday, and I still do not have the bitcoins into my wallet.  >:(

Something more: it is the 4th day when I try to cashout from Land Of Bitcoin faucet with no success. Each time I receive the message:
"Our Microwallet account is empty, we will refill it soon, please come back in an hour or three."

mhm, pm me your addies so i can check your microwallet balance and maybe tip u guys

its been a couple of days that they added the sticky text on top and it says "TODAY" we deploy the workout, blah blah, its gonna be normal again, and its been past 7days since i reached minimum withdrawal limit

i wonder if ever i get my money

First time poster, well let me tell you about my Microwallet account, have a look.

Haven't been paid since 2014-10-28

Microwallet are saying this..

Q: Is Microwallet closing? A: No.
Q: Is there a problem with the withdrawals? A: The issue caused by a bug in the Blockchain.info API. We will deploy the workaround today and after that everything back to normal.

So I thought I would write to Blockchain and ask about this bug.I got this reply.

Dear All
Just a quick question a yes or no would suffice then I would be very happy.
 
Q. Is Microwallet having problems making payments to users.
 
This what Microwallet have to say
 

. Q: Is Microwallet closing? A: No. Q: Is there a problem with the withdrawals? A: The issue caused by a bug in the Blockchain.info API. We will deploy the workaround today and after that everything back to normal.
 
That was about three days ago they made that statement, let me tell you that thousands of people have not had any Satoshis forwarded to blockchain.
 
I noticed that other sites can make direct payments.
 
Thanks

Hey there. We haven't had any reported issues with our API from other users, and I don't recall seeing any support tickets from them with an issue. If the issue continues I would contact them. Hopefully they fix whatever problem they are having.

Thanks!

So if they are saying they have a bug in the blockchain why then don't they report it?

I wrote to Microwallet suggesting just that, no reply as of yet.

Any one having issues with Microwalley (down again), erm Microwallet such as api or not getting paid, please e-mail
support@blockchain.zendesk.com
The more people who write and complain the quicker it will be sorted.

Finally got through to their Site and this is posted on it "The website is under a DDoS attack again. We are working on the issue to make sure it never happens again. The website should be back up and stable within a few hours. The good news is all of the recent issues should be resolved within 24 hours."

 :D I seen that, and when they get back on-line nothing will have changed.
Any bets on that?

Please don't open a ticket with Blockchain.info regarding Microwallet, because I'm not sure if they actually are experiencing an issue with our API. No other users have reported API-related problems, and they have not responded to emails we sent them. I'm not sure what their issue is, but I don't think it's related to Blockchain.info.

Thanks!

It is not 100% certain they will be back online in the next 24 hours. I would say the good thing is that this is a good chance to see that faucets are a horrible waste of time and that even if microwallet does run away with customer money they will get away with very little money

It is surely more than 1 week that I'm waiting for my payment, and since 3 days ago there is written that "All pending withdrawals will be processed within 24 hours.", but as I said I haven't received anything yet. I hope they are going to fix everything but I'm not so sure about that..

im not expecting to recieve my balance in my microwallet account anymore... :(

I would like to know it it's possible to use the faucets that are using microwallet.org without sending the payments there..

For example : http://www.scratch4satoshis.com/
                    http://bitcoinker.com/faucet?ref=1e3c804e65b5

They are always sending payments to my "microwallet" account, that it was created automatically when i put my btc address. I don't see any other way to receive the satoshi I "win".

We need to wait for microwallet to come back again.
If microwallet shuts down, many faucets will be affected badly.

Me too. I'm not sure if they're going to pay... and the other service (Faucetbox) is "moving to another server"... This makes me think that's not a very trustful service. I'd like Microwallet may go back to normality, but who knows. A few weeks ago everything was fine, and now nothing works :-/

if that happen is will be The shocking news for me because i use microwallet for collect BTC from many faucets

My experience is that that MicroWallet still aggregates your awards from faucets, they just haven't paid them out to users for 2 weeks now.

The message has been updated on Sunday night/Monday morning

Q: Is Microwallet closing? A: No. (All pending withdrawals will be processed within 24 hours.)

However, I still haven't seen any transactions going through, anyone else?

you're right. nothing so far

gz,boyz we have been scammed by microwallet

I have even send emails to a couple of faucets that use microwallet to see if they are concerned about microwallet current problem.  So far none have responded.  So for now I only visit faucets that have switched to FaucetBox or directly pay.

I wonder if they got hacked and their wallet drained?

So little information right now...

had some money with them,they can keep it ... it was like 0.000000000001 cents :)

i still can't withdraw my coin until now ??? ??? ??? ???

i have 0.005 in there, does it really pay at this moment ? X_X

This faucet http://www.scratch4satoshis.com/ is warning about mircowallet problems, but they still send my payments there and I don't know how can I change it..

This is Bitcoin world
Full of anonymous
never trust 100 %
so we can't be scam easily

I'm glad that I've stop playing faucet using microwallet as intermediary

Well there is a new message on the MicroWallet website.  API stopped working... ;)

Does not sound like the 'real' problem, also 10 days and counting to 'fix' the problem.  ;)

Seriously do they think what they say is believable?

It's back and moving again checkout this https://blockchain.info/address/1JA4GGzsGbNnu4SksU49YF9FkA12MRVQWN

Nope they are not planning to shut down, and they recently are now working and sending payouts to everyone!

I have recieved my payouts today :)

Yea!

Got my payment today too!

Glad they got it figured out and back up and running!

Now if Dailyfreebits would pay their hosting bill...

Goood btc arrived also to me ! ;)

Well it's nice to see at least some people got paid out.

Unfortunately I happen to be one of those that wasn't, but if you guys got paid I hope it's only a matter of time until I do as well.

I'll be sure to update here when/if I do.

microwallet is not gonna shotting down and i received my payment today

mine came through too, https://blockchain.info/tx/fa44d2ae90e901d4ba447efdc62ad805002cb273ec4306388f185c2120610b25 and I wrote http://bitcoinmagazine.com/18137/bitcoin-faucets-in-trouble/ based on this and the issues with BitChest.me

Updating as promised.

The reason I'm not being paid out is because I already was, I guess my account is part of how they discovered the bug in the Blockchain API, among dozens of others I'm sure.

I was paid out three times due to this bug in less than a minute, and this is part of why Microwallet was having issues.

I confirmed on my end that I did in fact get three payments on Oct 30th.

Nice article. You know I used the freebitco.in faucet for a long time before I even noticed the hi-lo game lol. Now I never make anything from it, lol, always gamble it all away.

this microwallet.org not paying was long back discussed but then they paid, but recently for the last few weeks again they are not paying and this time they are not replying to emails and even the faucets using their script are not replying anymore

I think all bitcoins which got dumped from different faucets in microwallet are going to get taken away and no one will be paid

If anyone has any new update regarding the same as on 03-31-2015 then pls post and let us all know

We need to understand whether microwallet has turned into a bitcoin scam or facing some issue

I received my payment today. On their website, they say all the payments will be made on the next 2 days.

put your link please?
Good thing if they pay again to their user

Yes, they started paying out this morning.

Don't care about it. you can try to paybox

Yes, you can choose Xapo

Why not faucet box?

Microwallet.org came back. It's good news for one that like using it to get bitcoin. Personally, I prefer Microwallet the other ones
