Been like that for a looooooong time.
There are actually TWO possible problems.

1) Page loads, but doesn't load user status.
2) Page loads incl. user status, but buttons become inactive.

In BOTH cases most times it helps reloading the whole page.
In case 2 the problem is a video ad in the bottom left of the window, meaning you have to terminate page loading after user status shows up and before the ad loads.

But right now none of any of that helps.
I tried reloading the page many times by now, no success.
It's simply an extremely bad programmed website at an extremely cheap hoster, where connections from the webspace to mysql are very unstable and not checked before the html loads, meaning when later on the mysql connection fails, the page doesn't even have an error handling on that.

But on a site without any support, all you can do is wait until their hoster has less traffic to handle, so connections to mysql will be working again.

That makes sense, but then ....... why don't I see your (or anyone elses) buy/sell orders?
Maybe because I do not have enough to match the size of your order?
Partial fills not possible?

I have never figured out, if and how I could sell my BCH (or any other coin for that matter) on Faucethub.
The list of buy orders appears empty to me and if I put something on sale, I never get a buyer until I cancel the sell order.

Am I doing something wrong? Does my level (16) not permit trading, or what else is wrong there?

If you help me figuring this out, I'll happily trade the coins you're missing for about anything else and I guess there are tons of other users who wouldn't mind getting their BCH paid out in LTC or something, simply because that's better than not getting paid.

Well, out of funds is clear enough for a message I think.
The bigger question is, why is that error message captcha protected?
If it cannot pay, putting a captcha in front of the error message only maximizes frustration for the users.

As a suggestion (and as seen on other sites) I'd say, either make sure it NEVER runs out of funds, or put the information of how many funds a faucet has in stock on the main page of the faucet, so users will even before making claims already see they will not get paid (at least not at this time).

That's not a secret, it has TWO reasons.

1) I've been stuck at the computer with a bad foot for some 2 months and during that time I got into cryptos.
On start I went for 100+ faucets, spending my whole day claiming, but then came my electricity bill and I had to realize, I pay more in electricity than I am claiming from faucets, so even if I REALLY have nothing better to do, claiming from faucets is a losing activity for well over 90% of all faucets in existence.

When I realized that I first tried contacting some faucets, suggesting improvements, such as "there's no point in a faucet paying 2 Satoshi once a minute, even if it COULD pay 120 satoshi an hour, the relation of time and value is plain ridiculous".
This way I made friends with the owner of Coins4Days, who appeared to be the ONLY faucet owner who EVER took my input seriously and we had a long discussion on Skype (even though he didn't follow my advice either).

Since that time I'm sorting out faucets that do pay above price of electricity, with ONE exception and that's your faucet.
The reason for that is, I came to you referred by the owner of Coins4Days and he (for a reason I cannot really imagine) insists that he wants to make your faucet, or better the referral bonus you pay his biggest source of faucet income.
He is all enthusiastic about it and somehow he keeps convincing me to stick with you.

But the longer this takes, the higher my loss becomes, because every single claim I make costs me money in form of electricity bill, the more I'm tempted to leave.
So here I am, wanting to do a friend a favour without paying with my own money for it.

2) I see potential in your site, it is well made and it is attractive due to a wide variety of coins, but under the given conditions of being a losing activity for everyone (except electricity providers) and the fact there are more and more faucets popping up paying more than 10 times of what you pay, I can easily predict, your faucet will go belly up within a few months.
Cutting payouts (or keeping them low from start) as a reaction to not enough income from ads is counter productive, simply because the less you pay, the less users you will have and the less you get from ads, meaning you're in a "race to the bottom".
I'd find that a pity because of the potential I see there, but as long as you're not willing to listen to your users, all I can do is point out my point of view and then ..... sooner or later ..... LEAVE.

Last but not least, let me add a question:
What's the point of a Peercoin faucet that pays 25,000 plus a 10,000 bonus claim every 15 minutes, if then max. withdrawal per day is limited to 200,000?
It means all active users will stop claiming after 6 claims, simply because they cannot withdraw more and that does NOT mean you're limiting payouts, you're in fact limiting your income by preventing users from seeing the ads that are your source of income.

That's a good one.

Let's see:

Payout in LTC from 240 to 280 is almost double? Or in BTC from 10 to 10 unchanged is almost double? Maybe Dash from 100 to 120 is double? But BLK from 180K to 200K that must be double?
But then Primecoin, from 115,000 to 100,000 that surely is double?
Cmon, how did you make it through elementary school with that kind of math?

FYI: BLK is worth $0.40, you pay 0.002BLK or $0.0008 and for that you have a 12 seconds waiting timer before captcha, while 12 seconds electricity for an average computer exceeds $0.0008 or in other words, making a claim pays for real LESS than NOTHING.

The secondary captcha is a good joke, it comes up with this fat WARNING that you must solve it or else you will get banned, but every other time you click into it to solve it, a popunder makes it impossible, because the page reloads.
Wonder how often one can do that until you own ads get users banned because they couldn't solve captchas?

Speed issues solved? Have you EVER tried making a claim from your own server, say around this time right now?
The incredible 60 seconds lag after captcha is gone, but that's all, the rest is as slow as ever.
A roundtrip through your 10 faucets (excluding B3) takes full 15 minutes for a payout of all together $0.008, that's a rate even workers in Bangladesh wouldn't get up for; you could throw that in Sao Paulo in the streets of the slums on the ground, nobody would bend down to pick it up, let alone working 15 minutes for it.

And last but not least, what is all that worth, while half of your faucets are out of funds?

Is this topic still active?
Support e-mail as well as Twitter accounts don't reply to any kind of question, even though I have a pretty easy, short question.

Instant-ETH has shown for WEEKS already a note on top of the page, saying "withdrawals are temporary disabled".

Also the info text below the faucet shows weird things.
The German site seems to be a copy of instant-btc, because it says auto withdraw shall be at 12,500 Satoshi.
The English site says auto withdraw shall be at 25,000,000 Gwei.

Now BOTH of that makes no sense, ETH doesn't have Satoshi and 25,000,000 Gwei equals not only over a year of continuous claiming, but roughly $200 in value.

So how long is "temporary disabled" and what is the real amount for auto withdrawals?


Now ....... because I saw all the critics above, let me add my personal experience with the instant faucets.
I've joined Instant-Doge in december and I got 3 payouts of 125 Doge each so far, never had any problem, all went full automatic.
Next I've joined Instant-LTC where I had my first payout recently, also without any problem, full automatic.

With Instant-BTC I'm not at payout level yet, but will get there some time this month, will see how that goes, but I don't expect any problems.
Only Instant-ETH seems to be really weird, but that might be only due to missing information.

Btw ........ has anyone noticed and kind of increase in speed of the site?

It's tuesday and


I've checked just now, from clicking a faucet before the 12 seconds timer even appears it takes another 10 seconds, then after solving the captach, from clicking "get my reward" until the reward shows up takes over 30 seconds and clicking to get back to the faucet list takes another 10 seconds.

I'd say that's slower than ever before.

You have not specifically pointed that out, but it was what you in fact did pay when I first came to your faucet, also it's the bottom end of value I'm willing to spend time on.
Also I never said $0.15, but 0.15 CENTS.

When Dogecoin was worth $0.017, you paid 13,500,000, which equals roughly 0.22 cents a claim.
Other coins I have no precise values, but were in a similar range, some higher, some lower, on average just under 0.2 cents.

Then Dogecoin collapsed, today it is worth $0.006 and you pay 7,500,000 which equals roughly 0.045 cents, meaning it takes 23 claims to get to ONE penny.
Under these conditions the price of electricity for running a computer alone during the 12 seconds waiting timer before captcha BY FAR exceeds the value of the claim.

Or in other words, if you believe "that is not possible", then I must reply, for me (as well as for ALL other users capable of calculating the cost of electricity) it is not possible to use your faucet.
After all I know a full dozen faucets that pay over 0.5 cents per claim and a ton more that find it VERY possible paying over 0.15 cents per claim.

So I guess we will have to find out how you as well as my electricity provider like it, when I am no longer functioning as a hub, funneling money from you to them, simply because there is literally LESS than NOTHING in it for me.

.... but you are aware they are literally ALL on a dynamic IP, aren't you?
If you keep banning all IP's a bot comes from, you might as well block entire providers or even entire countries, because that's what it comes down to, only doing this one by one takes WAY more of your time.

I've used CCminer for a test, but I get only connection error.
Retry every 30 seconds, let it run for half an hour, 60 times connection error.

I've used the command line as suggested on the site

ccminer-x64 -a cryptonight -i 18 -o stratum+tcp://mining.btcarcade.xyz:5000 -u <MyWallet> -p x

but no success.

Any ideas what I could try to get connection?

How about adjusting claim values?

I mean

0.075 Doge per claim, that's $0.0005, meaning only 1/3 of the 0.15 cents you mentioned above.
BTC 10 Satoshi is $0.001, also 50% below 0.15 cents.

And so on and so on, there literally isn't any faucet on your site that pays 0.15 cents per claim.

That happens when you double click the claim button or hit enter after captcha input and then click the button also.
It's a logic consequence of the site being so slow, makes users believe it didn't take the click, where clicking again gets to the error.

.... and yes, after a given amount (still waiting for a reply of how that's calculated and whether or not those get deleted if you don't do a wrong one for a while) of wrong captchas you get blocked for an hour.

Didn't you say this faucet should become faster?
How come it is slower than ever?
Not only this annoying 12 seconds timer before every captcha, after solving a captcha there's a 20 seconds lag before it shows how much you claimed and lets you go back to the list of faucets.
Trying to claim from all your faucets in a row takes over 20 minutes, which makes the option to claim once every 15 minutes rather ridiculous, let alone the fact that 10 times less than 0.1 cent in value or a total of 1 cent for all the claims in a row at a timing of 20 minutes gives a value that even workers in Bangladesh wouldn't get up for in the morning.

This is so incredibly slow, I can make 9 claims from all 9 faucets your direct competition has in between 2 claims from your site.

Your server is actually so slow that during the 15 minutes waiting timer it displays in between claims, even this timer loses 3 minutes towards real time, meaning if you refresh the page when it says 3 minutes left, after refresh it says ready to claim.

Well, just in time.
With these incredible scribbles I'm getting around noon CET (really worst time of the day), I just had my next 1 hour block.
I assume there's no point in asking for an unblock because you won't be able to react within an hour.

Since this is the second time in 2 weeks, I'm still afraid it might block me all together, but if you say you unblock then, that's all fine.
Question remains, why would you block users from using your site?
Aren't active users your source of income, while blocked users don't have any advantage for you?
At least for users that are in touch with you here in the forum, where it is obvious they are real humans, you should consider a white list or something, so they don't even get a next to impossible captcha to solve in the first place.

Is the answer a secret, or have you overlooked the question?

Since I once in a while have a typo in a captcha and there's always the message that too many wrong captchas will block the account and since I already was blocked for an hour once, what's the rule for how many wrong captchas can one have per day or per week and is there a risk of getting completely banned?

Can't log in today.
Apparently BOTH captcha options are unsolvable for regular users.
SolveMedia comes up with unreadable scribbles and clicking to get a different one just gets another unreadable one, even 100 in a row, while reCaptcha makes you click through slow motion pictures, where it takes 5-10 seconds before it exchanges an image, meaning by the time you're through and reCaptcha accepts it as correct, it has timed out on the site and still says "wrong captcha".

By experience I know, usually captchas become easier in about 2-3 hours from now, because after 5pm CET there seems to be less traffic on the web, but I wonder, what's the point of keeping regular users out for half of the day?

Same thing with literally ALL faucets that pay to Faucethub, simply because those use the same captchas and while that isn't your responsibility, I assume it's in the best interest of Faucethub asking your faucet owners to keep their captchas solvable, because else you won't have any cash flow.

Problem is not the exchange rate, problem is the claim value to begin with.
While a claim in ETH pays 95 Satoshi, a B3 claim pays only the equivalent of 13 Satoshi, meaning before you get to the claim value of a single ETH claim, you have to make more than 7 B3 claims.
Or in other words, the calculation of what a B3 claim should pay is WAY off.

Almost same for Dogecoin ...... pays 6,500,000 which is less than half of 95 ETH-Satoshi.
Almost same for Litecoin where 240 Satoshi ist just over half of 95 ETH-Satoshi.

And while I'm at it, I'd like to re-ask a question from above that remained unanswered:

Since I once in a while have a typo in a captcha and there's always the message that too many wrong captchas will block the account and since I already was blocked for an hour once, what's the rule for how many wrong captchas can one have per day or per week and is there a risk of getting completely banned?

Edit: By now it got worse, now a B3 claim pays less than 1 ETH-Satoshi.

Well, the good news is, that miner seems to be gone for good.
More good news for me, but pretty bad news for you is, you have been outcompeted.
There's a set of new faucets now, offering all the same coins you do, paying to Faucethub as well, BUT paying more than you do, paying every 5 mins and (most important) not having a 12 seconds waiting timer before every captcha.

I'll not put any link here, I assume you know anyway and after all this is your space, but I would strongly suggest, you increase your payout and get rid of that 12 seconds timer.

Sounds logic.
Unfortunately I didn't make a screenshot.
Ever since these hidden miners have come up, I'm observing my task manager permanently and when I see CPU load going up beyond reasonable, I look up the task that causes the load, terminate it and then my browser will tell me where the load came from, simply because that site will show a "page not found" or "connection interrupted".
If that's a site I like (and yes I do like your faucet) I reopen it and check again, but if it's the same thing, I close it and be gone until further notice.

If it happens again (if it's an ad on your site it most likely will) I'll make you a screenshot.
Hopefully we can work it out together.
