[ANN] Paytoshi: Micropayments & Faucets

[sorryforthat]

Very clean site, I wish more faucets look like this. Quick question, though. Where would the ads be placed on your theme?

They can be placed anywhere to be honest. I only have one on there because I feel too many are unbearable. I have exams this week so Ill throw something together for you this weekend and have it ready by the end of next week. If you have any specific requests just shoot me a message.

No requests from me, other than please no popups. That's it, lol

Hi.
Can you provide a clock for countdown every minute after 'get a reward' clicked?
Thank you 

[dpswfaucet]

Hi, I've installed the faucet script on my server.  Getting this error when trying this script.  (After submitting for the reward).  Not Found  The requested URL /faucet/reward was not found on this server.

I always liked paytoshi---have you updated anything in the last 6 months?

Hello Gifted,

thank you.

We mostly had backend updates rewriting all the core infrastructure to enhance security and maintenability of the entire system.

We are in the middle of a redesign of our frontend website and we hope to make things simpler for our users in the near future.

Thank you,
Cheers

What about bots attacks?

Do you have any anti-bot feature in your script?

Hello dpswfaucet,

could you please check if you server meets our faucet script requirements? Is the apache mod rewrite enabled?

If you are still interested write us in private, we may help you with the setup.

Cheers

Hello kotwica666,

Thank you,

Sorry, but ReCaptcha v2 is easy to pass by bots.. New FunCaptcha they already pass too.. It will be nice if you will think about some different feature - something like blocking IPs for example..

At this moment ReCaptcha is the state of the art in terms of preventing automated access (bot). Blocking IPs, on the contrary is a very poor and circumventable solution for this kind of problem.

How to handle bot attacks in a new/better ways is an ongoing academic effort, surely it is outside the scope of this project.

ReCaptcha is very good at stopping bots, yes, though it is very easy for a human to complete. Therefore, botters can just send the captcha to a solving service powered by humans to get the job done. So far, FunCaptcha and AreYouAHuman has proven to be some of the best for stopping this technique due to how the captcha works. Perhaps those would be worth it to implement for anti-bot measures.

Also, you're right, blocking IPs is a fairly poor way of stopping bots and abusers from going to your faucet. What has been found is blocking hostnames works significantly better (As there has been a trend of botters using VPSs such as AWS and such). Blocking these and services such as TOR would definitely be good to implement in the next build, if possible.

How do you withdraw? I collected a balance of over 10000 using bitcoin faucets, but there's no withdrawal button anywhere! 

[bittamak]

Is it similar to faucetbox (or) any new features available which are missing with other faucet providers? thanks

Withdrawals happen automatically every few days. Be patient and you will get your coins.

it's similar, but paytoshi script is opensource - you can "edit" it

ex. i've updated admin layout -> i do pull request in github :-) and it's approved

now all have "tabbed" admin panel

Good to know that code is an opensource...community can participate in developing further like the one you have contributed already
