We have been under DDOS attack for the past ~4 hours. They seem to be giving up since it doesn't seem to be having any impact (we have a load-distributed setup with 14 servers in multiple continents). Everything is running fast but there may be an occasional delay or two at times. Sorry for the inconvenience.

How would they benefit from doing that? It must be one of your competitor faucets out there, hoping that your site will fail, and that they can grab a share of your users, whilst you are down. ^hmmmm^ The problem is, your site attract users because you offer a excellent service and a enjoyable experience.

It is good to know you have good counter measures for DDoS attacks, I use it every day, and would hate to see it going down, because of these stupid attacks.

The problem is that nowadays it is really cheap to start DDOS attacks due to availability of many "stress testing" services so they have become a lot more frequent. We had one attack many months ago which made the website slow for  a few hours after which I migrated to a much more resilient setup which is very difficult to take down.

[wetsuit]

Sorry the website was down and slow for a bit. This is the kind of attack we have been fighting:



Seemed to be coming from Israel and Italy. It has been mitigated for now but we are still closely monitoring the servers.

@wetsuit Im guessing you mine bitcoins.... do you know a link to calculate  power consumption on 120 TH

I don't mine. The power consumption will depend on the specific miner used, all miners are different. you can calculate profitability at coinwarz.com if I remember correctly.

Wait, guys! So DOES THIS THING REALLY WORK?

Are you asking whether the site pays out or not? If that's what you're asking then yes, it works. Here is a transaction that I received from them on the 22nd (mine is one of two addresses that received 0.00034735 BTC):

http://blockchain.info/tx/e692aad289251b6ba3e0eca1464d8b84d63638ba39428494cb49384bad21c5b9

I've been on the site since its early days, and it always pays out (though I'm currently not much active there, just waiting for the automatic betting feature to be finished)...

wetsuit, how're things going?

Sorry, I was not getting notifications for this topic. I have been kinda busy fighting off a bot user, just deleted 2,000 of his accounts a couple of days back and the jackass made another 5,000 or so accounts yesterday. I would really hate to put a captcha in the sign up page so trying to find workarounds to stop people like these.

Auto-betting will take another week atleast, sorry.

im fighting the same problems... let me know if you figure out how to stop them making fake accounts

I honestly don't think anyone would mind if you put up a captcha on the registration page, but the botting is getting that much worse, huh? Unfortunate to hear. Where is the source of traffic coming from for the bot account(s)?

That post is from 2014. I have had to put a captcha on the login and sign up pages. Most of the bot traffic comes from Russia and Ukraine but also increasingly from the US now.

I don't know what happened in freebitco.in but the lowest reward has been halved for me.
Anyone here faced the same issue?

no. normal rate for me.

I think it is region specific... the payment for the US members might be bigger than the users from India for instance. It makes sense that

the payment should be more for a member from a country with a strong currency, compared to a country with a weak currency. The Ad

companies will also pay more for traffic coming from the first world countries. Their target is to push advertisements to people with money

to spend. { Even though faucet users are not the ideal market for most of these companies }

I have been playing this site for more than a year. They are always reliable, trustful, fast and convenient. I love this site very much although i never hit 10000 I recommend you to play freebitco.in to earn free bitcoin
Best regards to everyone

For me there are no changes in minimum reward,it is around 330 satoshi these days.I think you have some other problem then reward related by specific country, since that model of rewarding for some time is not on freebitco.

I notice that winners who won the lottery usually have the ID greater than one million,in last 5 rounds only one winner below that number.Is that mean that older users are not active any more or simply do not have luck?

Thanks for fixing.

Sorry, another DDOS attack took us down for about 30 mins.

This happened to me about 2 months ago or so. PM wetsuit and give him your UID so he can look into it. He had to do a manual fix for me to rectify the situation but I've had no problems since.

Hey Wetsuit, question about the free roll bonus: does the % boost only apply to the lowest tier reward? I just hit the second tier reward while the 100% bonus was active, but still only received the normal payout for that tier (3288 sats; 100% bonus would have been double that). This is the first I've noticed the bonus only applies to the bottom tier, as I've never hit a higher tier while it was active before.

Yes, the bonuses only apply to the lowest reward as is mentioned in the bonus page as well when you redeem them. We couldn't afford to give the bonus for all prizes.
