I say that Faucethub closing down is equal to the end of a cycle.
In my opinion it will be really hard for someone to take its place since there are already so many other websites which only increase user fragmentation.
Also the most popular faucets out there (Cointiply, Cryptomininggame, firefaucet) have moved (or are moving) to different ways to send funds directly to your wallet.

Faucethub was a middleman and costed you 1.5% fees. Isn't bitcoin designed to remove such things? Why my coins from faucets has to go to a 3rd party which takes a cut?
I acknowledge the site and its community was helpful and friendly to newcomers but, despite this, I think the best way to get introduced in the crypto world is learning from forums like this.

Anyway I remain open to discussion.

Well technically you don't need to invest. If you are not sure the website is legit, just try it for free and try reaching the minimum withdraw threshold (which is just 30 cents if I'm not mistaken).
I've asked a bunch of friends of mine to be mine referral as a joke so this should speed up the process.

Just my 2 cents advice, never invest in those sites. Play with it if you have time to spare, they are not worth the risk.

Well that's really too bad, lost some time and effort on this project

Finally some clarity on this topic. Anyone with other updates?
