Bots attack!

[Octopus.pp.ua]

Hi all

Yesterday, i had found some bots on my foucets. After manual check logs, i make list of IPs, used by this bad man.

If you want, you can use it for preventive ban:

I'll update it daily.

Are these 100% bots IP's? Could become in handy. About the bot attacks you can use 1. a signup system (i use), 2. Proxy prevention/blocker or a 'Bot Trap'.

Is it bots?



Use GET without load any .js scripts?

And how i can see in accounts of bot's user ( for example, https://faucetbox.com/en/check/3QFXV6Cv2bQ35QSAJeH56gfonyCj4m6SBJ) more faucet's owners not use proxy prevention/blocker or signup system

Is it do not interesting for faucet's owners?
So, that's our problem - ban bot's owners

Why do people even own faucets. Is it just to make money off the advertising on the site?

So whats stopping everyone from making one. I have seen faucet scrypts, so it cant be that hard.
Is it because it does not make a lot of money so it is better for people like you in Ukraine.

More people stop coze bots stealing money  and our (i mean, ukrainian) programmers fight with that

Bots are the problem, stealing coins from the faucet claimers thus driving down ad revenue. Bots cannot see your page & will not increase your ad revenue. That what i think faucet owners have an issue against bots for.

So how can you guys fight against the bot?

So how can you guys fight against the bot?

Indeed. Banning IPs makes no sense since a lot of ppl use proxies - for real or for bots.
And banning wallets just makes the owners change the wallets more often.
So I am curious what you can actually do excepting the use of good captcha sites.

Are faucets new? I thought they have been around for a while and with bitcoin a lot when bitcoin was cheap.
Did they have problems with the bots too?

Everyone who creates a faucet has problems with bots. That's part of the risk that one takes when creating a faucet. You seem to have a lot of questions about running faucets. If you search on the threads, you can find a lot of useful information about starting a faucet. One of my favorite guides that was posted is by 99bitcoins.com, and can be found here: https://99bitcoins.com/complete-beginners-guide-make-money-bitcoin-faucet/

This guide explains in detail how to make earnings, and how to create your faucet. Cheers, and good luck, mate!

Just checked your faucets. I think you need to put in your faucet, anti-bot script (you can find on this forum), and change captchas type. I think solvemedia is very easy for bots.

Thanks dude, I'l lbe checking it out. I am intrigued about the idea of giving away small amounts of money to be able to make bigger amounts, but I doubt im sophisticated enough to do it right and keep the bots away. Like I said, I'll check it out but more for curiosity reasons but I have no intention of building my own faucet. Thanks again.
