Nice one ... pretty cool, I really like where this is going! Just donated some piggies. I know this is a work in progress, so here's my feedback (I know it's a lot, but this could really catch on): How many questions do you have in rotation? How does it distinguish between same users with same/multiple addresses? I think you should let the visitor know whether the answer: is correct --> win piggies (animate/show coins going into wallet, or sound coins dropping in bucket) incorrect --> try again tomorrow I was thinking 1 question is not enough, maybe have like 5-10 questions in a row, and they get 2 coins for each correct question ... instead of the 1 question and they're gone. Also, at the end, some way to share their score with their friends to make it catch on ... At least a note to 'share with your classmates/teacher or something' You could even have categories at the beginning: history, science, math, grammar, etc ... Each category has a bank of questions. The more interactive the better.

Also, it does distinguish between addresses and IPs, and I will soon add proxy implementation. How would a kid share? I'm not sure if many young ones have social media. On a side note, the faucet pays out based on the number of people submitted. That I probably will not change.

On a side note, the faucet pays out based on the number of people submitted. That I probably will not change. I think moving to 5-10 questions at a time would be the first step. One question for each page, followed by the next question, at the end they submit their answers and are told which are correct/incorrect and how many coins they won. After that, you can began adding categories where they choose at the start. You can at least add facebook to like/share, if they are surfing the net, maybe the have a profile or their parents are with them ... This is really cool, there are lots of features you can slowly add over time to make it really awesome!

I will personally be monitoring certain addresses every round. Since I did not want to add ads (it's for kids), the faucet is relying on donations ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . Of course, I will be donating also.

Wow, many people submitted addresses into the faucet so far! I have verified every IP address. Who here thinks a web wallet would be important to the development of piggycoin? Here's a quote from PiggyM: "Well we are a kid based currency; not many kids have their own home computer. They do have [or share]tablets and smartphones. A web based wallet would cover all of that."
I completely agree. Although web wallets are significantly more vulnuerable than wallets stored on PC, it's convenience is very great. Many children are fascinated by the web but do not have the skill to use a computer like an IT professional would. I bet if you asked them to set up the wallet, they would have a very difficult time, and some may even turn away from crypto because of that.

I think a web wallet, though it is a good idea, should be farther down the list... too many security risks and just as difficult to set one up than to download and install a desktop wallet. The desktop wallet should have an installer .exe to make it easier...

Played the educative faucet with my girls tonight. They loved it!
One thing to keep in mind about multiple requests from one IP is that some people have more than 1 kid who are collecting Piggy Coins. There will be much despair if one gets the reward and the other does not...

Yh, but people may also hack the system. Do you have any suggestions?

The desktop wallet should have an installer .exe to make it easier... Why would a web wallet be harder to set up? It only takes registration. For the PC wallet, if the child does have his/her own PC, they must download it only to find out that it doesn't run because of missing config file. If we're avoiding web wallets atm, then we should really provide detailed instructions, like a video.
