I’m trying to gamble with a little bit on Ella but man stocks.exchange is the most pathetic excuse for an exchange in history.  I’ve never come across a more unuserfriendly and amateur joke of a site.

You are just a unfriendly user.

I'm not experienced in technical aspects but mabe someone knows.

Is there a way to create a dapp serving as a faucet? Donations will be sent to it by community members so that newcomers can receive a small airdrop of ELLA just to play with and to join the community.

Is is technically possible?

Yes it's possible. What's your objective here? You want to create a smart contract that distributes ella with the received donations?
Yes, sort of a classic crypto-faucet. User just fills in his ELLA address and gets a small amount of ELLA to his wallet. Same ELLA address and IP can repeat the same operation in, let' say, 60 min, etc.

Faucet wallet can be credited by any amount of donation from anyone using ELLA.

Yes this can be done and shouldn't take very long. Obviously this can't be 100% decentralized as you need to process user input (to avoid duplicates and filter repeating ip's and ella addresses).

The process goes something like this: User enters address -> server processes the information -> if user is legit ask the contract to send X amount of ella to the user -> contract sends the amount of ella to the recipient -> update front end

The only "decentralized" aspect of this project would be that the Ella would be stored on the contract address visible to everybody and only the owner (faucet) could request transactions (or the contract itself). A foot note to this, this doesn't make it decentralized as a central party (the faucet owner) can potentially keep all the ella from the donations since he is the only one with authorization to make transactions.

If you want to make this truly decentralized (contract + html + web3) you're prone to having some malicious user drain your wallet by using proxies and generating thousands of ella addresses, since you can't sanitize the requests which makes it not viable in my humble opinion.

I'm not a technical guy but hopefully someone some day makes that "ELLA Faucet Dapp" for the newcomers to get a bit of ELLA to play with it and to join the community.

And of course the wallet is more than welcome. Happy to hear it's gonna get live very soon. Cannot wait to test it.

I'm working on your idea right now, I can probably have a working prototype in 24 hours, maybe less if I don't get sidetracked by something irl.

Just got home, here's a rough proof of concept of a faucet smart contract:

Code:
pragma solidity ^0.4.18;

contract ellaFaucet {
    
    /* The calls to onlyOwner functions made to this contract need to be signed with the private key of the contract owner's address referenced in the constructor function _
    /* as a requirement to call the 'payFaucetUser' function (or else anyone could call it and claim infinite times with random addresses) _
    /* also as a requirement to call the 'changeClaimAmount' function (or else anyone could change the amount of ella the faucet dispenses) _
    /* gas is paid by the contract caller (the owner in this specific case if you're calling via web3 back end) so make sure the owner's address has some ella in it */
    
    address private owner;
    uint private claimAmount;
    
    modifier onlyOwner() {
        assert(msg.sender == owner);
        _;
    }
    
    function ellaFaucet() public { // constructor
        owner = msg.sender;
        claimAmount = 1000000000000000000; // Wei equivalent to 1 ella per claim
    }
    
    function () public payable {} // allow the contract to receive ella donations
    
    function payFaucetUser(address _payee) public onlyOwner returns (bool) {
        if (this.balance > 1000000000000000000) {
            _payee.transfer(claimAmount);
            return true;
        } else {
            throw; // faucet is dry :(
        }
    }
    
    function availableAmount() public view returns (uint) {
        return this.balance;
    }
    
    function changeClaimAmount(uint amount) public onlyOwner { // owner only
        claimAmount = amount;
    }
    
    function checkOwner() public view returns (address) {
        return owner;
    }
    
    function checkClaimAmount() public view returns (uint) {
        return claimAmount;
    }
}

I wrote this in 5 minutes, it can probably be improved. Obviously this will need a front end UI and a back end service so you can sanitize users (avoid multiple claims from the same ip, etc)

id like to work with you on the front end /backend i can provide a vps for it.
