Just to keep you up to date: all our daemons except Bitcoin are now up to date with network, so deposits for currencies other than Bitcoin should be working correctly.

Bitcoin daemon is around block 323796 which means it's still October 2014, so it'll take a few more hours for Bitcoin deposits to catch up.

@admin... almost 6 hours and most than 12h that started the update... you know on this bussiness such time can kill a site... I don't know why you did this without a warning, so I could deposite before...

If your faucet have sources just for 24h - you should to know the risk. Next time fill it for 48 hours or more.. problem solved!

Ps. but i know what you feel. For me happen similar thing few times.. Just next lesson. No worries, always can happen something worst

[Kazuldur]

It wasn't a planned action, it was an emergency due to unexpected failure of our server. Bitcoin is currently around block 368059, so it only has one more month to catch up. Don't whine about "big fees", as they're incredibly low.

Please don't delete comments about the unsynced deposits and tell us when is the expected time when we will see them in our balances.

P.S. And anything over 1% fee is huge for the volume that you have, I was sacrificing 3% for getting your great service and don't expect to have such downtimes for that. You should be making a no fees week after every such problem as a compensation to you users.

These comments were spam, they all said the same thing. I've left one or two.
Read my post above. One more month to sync, so I guess an hour or hour and a half. But I don't guarantee that, it's hard to predict syncing.

That can be an interesting discussion. So as you can see here: https://faucetbox.com/stats, 1.4% of all deposits is what we have to pay to the network as network fees (that's an average since the beginning, we manage to get it lower and lower with time). So you expect us to pay that 0.4% from our empty pockets. And then we have to pay for the servers, not speaking about any salary for us. You know, a powerful server for 6 daemon nodes, another powerful server to manage a few dozens of gigabytes of payouts data and a powerful server for a website. With 1.4% lost to network, 1.5% is what's left to us. For now, since the beginning of FaucetBOX.com, it equals to ~14 BTC. And that must be enough for tools we use, for couple servers and for couple people constantly developing a website, responding to support tickets and keeping it all together for about 10 months now. We basically run the service without any salary on our end, so if you think that could run something like this for 1% fee then I'd honestly love to hear suggestions (no irony here, really).

Any update with the ETA? 1hour passed and around 15+since no deposits...

Edit: finally appeared....

[couineur]

I know this is not directly linked to faucetbox, but I hate when this happens:

Code:

1000 (50%), 1500 (30%), 2000 (20%) satoshi every 240 minutes.

500 satoshi was sent to you on FaucetBOX.com.

[ragi]

The deposit is credited to my faucet. I guess everything runs fine now.

[asmoday]

The deposits are credited.
All Done! Thank you, Kazuldur!

P.S>And what about delay faucets? When will be faucetlist for it?

I agree then, no discussions here. I though the volume was bigger, and forgot the network fees. 3% reasonable then, considering you also have other sources of income (and good that you have). Else it would be small, yes.

I wouldn't really trust that stats. Most bots that are out there use real browsers and can't be detected as bots. Your spendings would have to drop about 75-80% after enabling Funcaptcha if these stats are real. Did that happen?

[snipie]

Can't you just block them, dunno how it is working but i know few faucets that stopped paying a specific address

[sasa87it]

they have to suspend payments to these addresses and do a test !! They are BOT and they STOLEN 0.06 today . miserable starved . I WORK TO BUY BTC . I GOT IT?? I WORK!! DO NOT RUBO !! MI ALZO THE MORNING AND I break your ass !!! THEFT CAN THESE FAUCETBOX LI ' Boccare BECAUSE validate MANUALLY !!!

[Kazuldur]

Stop spamming. I'm investigating already.

Your site is behind a loadbalancer. Have you done anything related to reverse proxy settings or IP detection?
