You can resend the application in your Dashboard, no need to ask here

That's what we're already implementing . However it doesn't help people that for some reason can't sign a message, so - based on the feedback after implementing it as an option - we may decide to require signing a message by everyone. ETA: up to 2 weeks.

That's one of the ideas we have. However what about people that didn't set their PIN? Someone evil could set a PIN and then the real owner wouldn't be able to payout at all. The only way they could prove they're the owner then would be signing a message using an address, but most people have no idea how to do that (and some people use exchange addresses, where they don't have access to the private key).

I believe that the only sane way is signing messages from the very beginning. That way only real address owner can change the threshold. If the owner can't sign a message, they'll be stuck with the default lowest-possible threshold (which isn't that bad, at least they'll get the coins).

No, it's not that. Only a server upgrade. We still haven't decided what will be the best way to restrict access to the threshold setting.

FaucetBOX.com will be down for maintenance, we're upgrading our infrastructure. Shouldn't take more than 30 minutes

Looks like rippled JSON-RPC protocol isn't compatible with Bitcoin Core protocol, so it's very unlikely we'll add it this year.

We won't add Paycoin in near future. It's the first time i hear about Ripple, so no for that one for now too. We'll probably implement Darkcoin, but no ETA yet.

There's a lot of things that have to be done when running an independent faucet that:
1. it has to accumulate micro prizes, because it's impossible to send less than ~5k satoshi using Bitcoin network.
2. there's a fee to the network: 0.0001 BTC for each 1KB of transaction. It adds up fast. If you're not careful, you can end up spending more on network fees than you're sending to your users. One of my faucets was spending 20% of coins on fees. With FaucetBOX.com it's down to 3%, so with FaucetBOX.com faucets can give more to the users.
3. run a full-blown Bitcoin node (or use something like Blockchain.info API, but that's not so independent anymore).

Because it's hard and expensive for faucet owners.

Thank you


We will renew it.


I don't see how price is relevant


I'm actually testing Darkcoin, but I still have second thoughts about it. Looks like it's developing quickly and it needs to be updated a little bit too often.

No, we won't add that to the API.

Where did you see that? We don't plan stopping our service for now

Yes. But no details and no ETAs for that yet.

Out of curiosity: why would you want that?

That's why FaucetBOX.com exists. It's not trivial, it's expensive (you have to pay enormous transaction fees or have enormous payout limits for users), it forces you to track balances of your users yourself and your users have to wait long time for their first withdrawal, because you need to have a minimal payout.

Most autonomous faucets I know use Blockchain.info API. My faucets used bitcoind (let's say that it's a server version of Bitcoin Core) and litecoind, but that's simply not worth it.

Yes and we're aware of that. It should say 120.81 DOGE, not satoshi of course .


FaucetBOX.com users SHOULDN'T signup. Account is created automatically for address when they use it on any faucet. Then it's automatically withdrawn as soon as they reach the threshold. It's possible for user to never visit FaucetBOX.com and still get coins to their address from faucets using FaucetBOX.com. Only faucet owners should register using their email and password.

It's not on our list for a long time now.

It should be fixed now

As I said, you just have to wait a few days . It simply means that Google Analytics bot haven't visited your website yet.

Sometimes it took even a few days for me until Analytics detected it properly. Check the Realtime stats, if you something there then the code is installed properly.
