I understand that it's high, but currently we're paying 2.1% fees to the Bitcoin network when sending transactions plus everything we're paying for servers. It's simply not a cheap business.

I think it would be possible to lower the fees if we'd place ads on our faucets list. What do you think about it?

New FiaB version: https://static.faucetbox.com/download/faucetinabox/faucetinabox-r25.zip

It'll try to connect without cURL if it fails. It fixed the problem in my test environment, but I think it won't fix the problem for everybody yet. It looks like some versions of OpenSSL just try to use SSLv3 no matter what (while the server only accepts TLS), and SSL is already broken and insecure.

It looks like in most cases it's a problem with a broken cURL. I'm now preparing a version that doesn't use it, which (hopefully) should fix these problem for some people. Please be patient.

If it connects to CloudFlare then of course it's not DNS related anymore. I will look into that.

Hello,
I'm not able to support everyone here on Bitcointalk. Please send emails to support@faucetbox.com, it'll be much easier this way.

Hovewer, as it's written on https://faucetbox.com/en/faucetinabox , Faucet in a Box script was written for at least PHP 5.4, so you use it on PHP 5.2 on your own risk.

The DNS TTL was 48 hours, so problems related to that should be gone by tomorrow.

If you have access to /etc/hosts file on your server, you can try to append something like this to it:
But I really don't recommend it. It's best to wait until it updates on itself.


Send me your bitcoin address and I'll check if everything is good.


Try setting "$display_errors = true;" in config.php. Does it show any errors?


You've been paid twice, so I had to deduce it from the balance. You only have to collect 0.00019858 BTC on faucets to be at 0%. It's 153% of the minimum 0.00013 BTC, not "all so far".


It's getting late, so I won't respond till tomorrow.

Please contact us via support@faucetbox.com. I believe that there's no missing payment, but I need your addresses to do the calculations.

I don't know why he called this 'Banned', but 185.25.151.163 is the old IP address. You have to wait until your DNS update our IP.


Update: registration is fixed, I'm working now on fixing the double transaction.

This is not the current FaucetBOX.com server. You can only access current FaucetBOX.com server through CloudFlare IPs.


I'll check that.


I'm aware of this.

However I'll not able to do anything for a few hours, please be patient.

Update guys. I believe the migration is complete and the tests went fine. FaucetBOX.com should work again as soon as DNS updates. At least I hope so

You can try this version: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=00145624559023713371
But it's not tested, so no guarantees.

I'll make admin panel work without connection right after I migrate FaucetBOX.com to a new server

When the server comes back I'll take down all fees to 2% for 24h.

I'm working on a solution.

It only affects the address you've delayed it on, so it's separate for each currency.


You can prove it by:
1. checking if your site stats match the number of your faucet's users. It should be roughly the same.
2. checking number of users saved in your faucets database and comparing it with what FaucetBOX.com reports

However it may give false positives. For example Google Analytics will only count users with JavaScript enabled and if you use reCaptcha then people without JavaScript can still claim coins, so there may be some differences. Although if these are okay then the only way I could empty your faucet is like everyone else, which means lots of IP addresses and lots of time to solve captchas


What can I say... We didn't ddos anyone. I believe that our service is better than Microwallet. Lots of people were already tired with them, Microwallet future were uncertain in past few months, so I really don't have to do anything to Microwallet to compete with them. I'm just giving what I think is a good service

BTW long-standing DDoS attacks aren't that cheap, I don't believe it's worthy to DDoS anyone in faucet business. And as far as I know, if a site is DDoSed, most of the time it would be totally unreachable. And Microwallet is reachable, they just don't payout too often, so I doubt that there was any DDoS at all.

For now that's only possible via parsing the page. Would you want to display it to user after sending him coins? If so, then I think we can implement something like this in the API, but not in the next 2 weeks or so (we have hands full of work).

You can have as many faucets as you want, especially you can have multiple currencies, although you will be able to submit only one faucet to our list and users will see their payments coming from your main faucet. However we will fix that next week

That's exactly how it works .

Fixed, thanks

Fixed in r20, thanks for the report!
