Title: Bitcoin street faucet problem Post by: spotlightman1234 on June 17, 2011, 09:28:24 AM I know It's not really my place to be complaining but as you know the bitcoin faucet (http://freebitcoins.appspot.com/) has been down for quite a while due to them not having any coins because potentially somebody is abusing the system. Anyway I have tried to use the new bitcoin street faucet, (http://faucet.bitcoin.st/) but I have had many problems :(. At first it was a firewall problem (port 8333 being closed) now it's this! every time i put in a valid address and cellphone number it says:
***ERROR*** ERROR All I want to do is try out this exciting new currency then donate it back to the faucet when I'm done. Could anyone help me with this or give me a reason for it giving me an error, or possibly loan me 0.01 bitcoins? I don't mean to seem entitled at all, I'm just curious to try put this new system and if I like invest in some bitcoins. So, please let me know if they're any other bitcoin faucets out there that I could try. Any help much appreciated :).

There isn't much you can learn by somebody just handing you a bitcent.
But if you want one to play with.. sure, post an address.. I'll pony up. Title: Re: Bitcoin street faucet problem Post by: Roland68 on June 17, 2011, 09:31:56 AM Do you get the message at your cell phone ?

It's a Bitcoin that wears beat up jeans and a t-shirt and hangs out on the corner. It tends to smell a bit funny too ;D Title: Re: Bitcoin street faucet problem Post by: Hunterbunter on June 17, 2011, 09:05:43 PM 5 centibits? Wouldn't mBTC denote .001? I believe you are correct. A bitnick would be 5cBits or 50 mbits I'm so very glad that bitcoin didn't start off using "credits" or "creds". That would have been very lame.
