3- ads blocks

This isn't a good feature. Ads fund the faucet. If user use ad-block, then faucet will only run for some time. So there shouldn't be this option, especially a user-controllable option. Instead, ad-block blocker is a good thing to integrate.

HTML ads blocks like Microwallet faucet script

advertising will make a faucet more attractive...and gambling makes a faucet owner more profitable

Yea, but the gambling part is tricky... if you are referring to the multiplier option, featured on some faucets.

There are too many people trying to beat the system and one exploit could eliminate your profits.

Hi All,

Sorry for the lack of progress over the past week,

I have been in hospital the past 5 days. I will get to work on this as soon as I can and will update you all shortly.

Is a bitcoind full node needed to make payments from a private key?

[ikydesu]

Hi,

As a project I am creating and releasing an open source Faucet script on GitHub,

So far it works with Blockchain Wallet and Private keys to make payments.

I am wondering if there is any other features people would like to see?

Choice of Captcha system perhaps?

So far the faucet has the following features.

* Payouts
* Affiliate Scheme
* Google Captcha
* 8 x Advert Support
* Admin Page
* You choose payouts on percentages

Thanks for any ideas!

Add more coins, not only bitcoin but more altcoin.
Faucet contest(?) like who write captcha much more than other in one week will get some reward.
