Exact same problem I had, this is their response:

You can try using an api key with your requests, you might be blocked by our service provider automatically for making too many requests too fast.

If you would like to request a Blockchain API key, then you can do via this form: https://blockchain.info/api/api_create_code. Just let me know when it is submitted, and I will approve it for you.

As far as the double spend goes, I'm sorry that this happened, but blockchain is not liable for user initiated unintentional transactions.
Thank you. API key requested now.

So one thing I noticed was the size of the transaction directly impacted whether or not you would get a 502. Small (25-30 addresses) sendmany were always successful, anything larger up to about 75 addresses was hit or miss and anything above 75 addresses were almost always 502 + really did send the transaction. Glad you got it worked out.

Just got my payout from MicroWallet.

0.03702137 BTC   75a3a4a15c971bd5d18b5e42cf36714d1574ae4a1a03410f63fb2a2bf743c4ee   2014-11-13 20:04:32 UTC   0.00000365 BTC


Glad to see that payouts appear to be processing now!


That said, we (CryptoBlox.com) have now moved over to a direct payout system and are in BETA.  Currently dispensing out 100-150 each hour with weekly payouts on Sundays.  Once we get out of BETA we will be upping the dispenses.  Will also be implementing a Tiered Referral System so that you will gain more Referral commission based on the amount of people referred.  Give us a shot.  <= Shameless Plug? Wink


Aside from that, hoping to see that MicroWallet is now back in business and we can get all of the faucet sites back up and running!  Was surprised to see my MicroWallet balance at 0 finally with a transaction processed today.

To the MW admin, please be sure to communicate on here better, we've all been left in the dark.

I am glad to know that you got a big chunk paid.

Unless you do something like the freebitcoin . Would be a pain in the ass to get 100-150 to get paid at sunday.

Land after you finish the problems.

Please start shooting at 85% of the posts here . =D

Can you understand why people would be annoyed at not hearing anything? Or hearing they'd be out in 24 hours as weeks go by?

I was visiting Land of Bitcoin and all those websites in the link ring, and since I have stopped receiving payments, I haven't bothered to look at the sites anymore. Lots of people are in same position, but probably don't even know where to post, or don't care to.

All those websites were getting money from ads and hits, and I'm sure their revenue dropped. A couple of weeks without payment from what I think is the biggest faucet mini wallet out there, will probably lead to a bunch of people quitting faucets altogether, because it was barely worth it as it was. I know someone posted the website faucet owners wanted to sue. I can see them getting less hits from loyal customers, not because of anything they did, but just because they used Microwallet. 

If the page had been updated as they went along, we wouldn't be in this predicament.

+1 what do you expect people to think when no communications are made and 90% of anything do to with crypto are scams. If microwallet would have came on here in the first instance people would have more than willing to help them through the issues and there would have been no damage caused.

i am the owner of a faucet at MW and land of bitcoin.

0.25300002 BTC Land of Bitcoin
0.10000001 BTC Microwallet

Both revenue from Adbit.co

Dont counting the refs he got to bitcoin cassino . and the money he gets from A-ads

Never understood why he dont put some google adsense banners.

35 btc is a lot of money? Yes.

But why dirty yourself if you receive 1 btc every 3 days from just 2 banners?

And doenst matter other services 95% of faucet traffic comes from land of bitcoin (according with my google analytics)

our community live with scam and frauds all the time. so a small sign and everybody start going crazy.

have a little more faith.

This is simple. Cool

If MW feels they don't have to be accountable for the bitcoin they collect from people (taking bitcoin, not communicating)

...We can just court order their domain registrar and hosting provider to reveal who MW.
Grin Grin Grin

Afterwards, we can sue him for the total amount of bitcoin which has been deposited by faucet owners and not refunded. His empty posts on microwallet do not make him any less liable in this situation. As far as I am concerned people have directly emailed with no response, me being one of them.

Taking our money but can't respond to an email while the service is non operational is a big deal, not a little deal.

The beauty of court ordering their registrar and hosting provider to reveal the MW identity works in many ways. We get his identity so we know who to pull in court to recover lost funds.

But the other funny part about doing a court order is that in the off chance he used false information to register the domain behind his private whois, a complaint can be sent through ICANN who can (and will, and has before) confiscate the domain name from him for using that false information. But the court order would have to be in place to reveal his info first.

ICANN Complaint Form: https://forms.icann.org/en/resources/compliance/complaints/whois/inaccuracy-form

"At least annually, a registrar must present to the registrant the current Whois information, and remind the registrant that provision of false Whois information can be grounds for cancellation of their domain name registration. Registrants must review their Whois data, and make any corrections."

Maybe 502 Bad Gateway is caused because there are too many output addresses.

I've seen this issue with the mass small payments before.

Maybe he should try to send in smaller chunks to all the users that have 0.01 BTC or more. If he is smart he will be able to avoid the required 0.0001 fee.

Then do the same with the smaller amounts ... and for the future double the "miner fee".
Their API worked fine with 138 outputs in the past. Tested with 108 outputs, same issue. Tested with 2 outputs and worked, but 2 outputs are not enough obviously. Anyways, sending the transaction and then responding with an error page is unacceptable so we are working on a solution to replace it. If the test goes well it can be deployed within a few hours.

If you are using the GET method described in their API you may be hitting the GET length limitation which may vary between the servers between 2kb and 8kb but then the transaction should fail then.

Error 502 - comes most likely from cloudflare. Probably somewhere they have "timeout" value to increase.

Maybe the only option is to break it into 3 parts:
- check the balance of the address used to send from
-- on error - fail
- try to send
-- on error - wait 1-2 minutes and check the balance of the address used to send from https://blockchain.info/rawaddr/[ADDRES-SHERE]
--- if the amount stays the same then assume the operation has failed
--- if the amount got changed then then success - get the first TX id
-- on success use the returned TX

Otherwise good luck making bitcoind work

Indeed, I had also a problem with the api.
I could not send a payment, before the previous payment confirmed.

Q: Why are the withdrawals delayed? A: Blockchain.info API stopped working basically, so we are working on a solution to replace it completely. (Their API responding with 502 Bad Gateway error and randomly sending or not sending the transaction.)

That is bullshit because 1000 other websites are using the blockchain API without any problems

Microwallet is turning into a scam and is gathering up as many coins of yours for as long as possible

Or maybe not:

That was my first thought. They're just trying to make people feel ok, to continue to pump more money to them, for as long as possible.

It's one guy, writing code. Maybe he has a full time job as a developer somewhere too. He's been a pretty stand up guy for a year, and there are problems with the blockchain API. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that it's just a problem that he thought he had licked and realized it was more complicated than he thought and is focused on fixing it.

I would probably agree, if he was posting here to that effect and if he hadn't posted it would all be sent out in 24 hours and then never post again and never send out payments again.

But the lack of communication, and continued use of the lie that they will be sent out in 24 hours, makes me not trust him anymore.

Well after all that writing, I looked at the website this morning and it's been updated:

"Q: Why are the withdrawals delayed? A: Blockchain.info API stopped working basically, so we are working on a solution to replace it completely. (Their API responding with 502 Bad Gateway error and randomly sending or not sending the transaction.)"

We'll see what happens. If that had been posted a week ago.... I'd have more faith. As it is, I'm still not doing mircowallet faucets.
