That was an eye opener, thanks! I just switched my sites over to funcaptcha after seeing that thread. It's only been switched over for a half hour and my dashboard reports over 30 bots have been blocked!

Thanks for the tips guys.
Props to FaucetWorld posting the graph showing the before and after switching from reCaptcha to funcaptcha.
I didn't know bots could get around recaptcha and solvemedia so easily. I went ahead and switched my new faucet over to funcaptcha and I'm also thinking of switching my other site over as well.

I closed my long from 228 yesterday at 241. This morning about 12 hours ago I went short.
I'm thinking something like this, but only short term.



I don't think we'll go much below 232 the 3 day still looks bullish.

Thanks for keeping up with your list, I know it's a lot work to go through each one. For example I didn't know bitcoinicker stopped paying, good to know!

I think cointelegraph has been reading too much zerohedge.
I'm sorry but I'm going to need more than "rumors" and a meme of the British chancellor to take this seriously.

I make a lot more from adsense ads on my websites than I do with the ads that play before my youtube videos. Then again I get a lot for daily unique visitors on my websites than I do with my videos. But I keep the ads on my youtube because sometimes a decent amount will be earned, I guess it depends on what the ad is, they all pay differently.

Yes the site is still working and ready to get you some free satoshis :-)

Well that was a fun start to a Friday morning!
Received the 0.01 BTC. I wasn't as lucky as last time and I lost it all rather quickly. Oh well, thanks again Stunna!

Thanks for checking it out!
Looks good, I like the banner! Thanks for adding my site to your rotator. I'm hoping this one will get even more popular that my faucet+dice site 

The rewards are not low.
Others have already received over 5,000 satoshis for their bonus game because they guessed the number in less guesses.
You were sent 300, and then you were sent 12 because you had so many wrong guesses.

Yes but the transaction still needs to take place. People were sweeping these keys thinking they would automatically have these funds moved to their wallet. The sweep imports the key and then creates a transaction to move the inputs, it's just a layer.

The secret number is unique to you and your claim. You can keep guessing until you get it right.
Also why would you pick 555 when number is between 1 - 100?  Pick again, you can keep picking until the reward runs out.

I learned something today.
This experiment showed that several people don't fully understand how bitcoin transactions are constructed and how bitcoin ownership works. Several people seemed to think that 'sweeping' somehow automatically moves the inputs into their address without having to create a transaction. Sweeping does not move any coins and does not change coin ownership. Sweeping is just a layer that certain wallets provide that makes it look like everything has merged into one address when it really has just added a private key to your wallet.

This site has been sold. See the auction thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1198228.0

Hey All,
  Please take a moment to check out my newest faucet DailySatoshis.com and let me know what you think about the bonus game I made.

Every time you visit you will receive a standard claim and then you will also get to play a unique bonus game.

How it works: The computer will pick a number between 1 - 100. The object is for you to guess that number with the least amount of guesses.
Every time you guess the wrong number you will receive a hint(greater than or less than) and the bonus reward will get smaller.

300-10,000 every 30 minutes.
Instant payout to faucetBOX.
100% referral commission paid on standard claims (300 sats, commission is not paid on bonus game winnings).

Bc.info is only ONE service. They are being ddos since they are the most popular.

These addresses have 3k inputs. So clients like electric don't store the full blockchain so it's crashing when you tryou to imortgage these keys.

If you had a full node running you would already have the dust txs and their scriptpubkeys, v_outs, etc required to create a transaction.

Does coinage have an import private key option? If so this could get ugly with news not understanding how bitcoin txs work and demanding to be paid out in fiat for "their" imported coins.

The other block explorers work like blockr.up
It's funny how many people think bc.info is thee only way to check addresses. If you have a fI'll node running it should be relatively easy to move those coins. I haven't synced my core in a few weeks and it's time to goto work so I wI'll only be a spectator.  Coinwallet.eu, clever girl.

You are using the power of human selfish greed to create a DDOS on the network. It's actually a pretty smart idea for creating a stress test.
I myself tried building a couple raw transactions, but with the amount of dust inputs it's a ton of work just to make a raw transaction of just 0.00005. Not worth it.

I think this is worse than the stress test... my electrum will not sync. BC.info is practically being DDOS by everyone trying to grab coins.
Even attempting to send it as a raw transaction is difficult as these addresses are full of dust (hundreds of tiny inputs).
This is insane!

I also agree with knight. You need to keep your stash secures on paper not just a thumb drive. One thing I have learned is devices fail. I keepone backed up on thumbs rives AND paper.
