There should be better distribution than giving it out to Byteball, IOTA, and Doge holders. The whales are waiting.

However bustedsynx has some point here, faucet based distribution is thing of the past.
We well saw how classic, image captcha puzzles turned the site in to bot-fest.
Now the puzzles are absurdly hard and price is not reflecting this difficulty at all.
I feel like solving this captchas beside generating some income for me is without actual sense, that dull, repetive and not easy work is a work that doesn't benefit community. No adds so its not even bringing profits to devs.
All those hours of clicking could bring something more! Develop something, like AI, databases, cataloguing deep sky pictures, you know some stuff that humanity as a whole could have a profit from.
Just saying... you will do as you pleased 

Limited to people already using crypto. And huge advantage to whales
Note: Byteball & IOTA were launched after XRB

sadly, but what to expect? i think this is the best one
dunno about dev, they always making inovation about this coin. thats what i like.

Oh my God! Raiblocks still using that outdated mode of distribution? The faucet idea is past its prime. There are better ways to distibute XRB. Why not distribute it to Byteball holders or IOTA holders. Even to other coins like Doge whatever.

Bittrex or deaaaaaathhhh
lol

/EMO

We just trying to figure out Who Framed Roger Rabbit 

What i don't get is that why don't devs fix the TH and per account xrb coins to a certain number (like 1000 for TH and 80 for Xrb) and yes change it whenever they want, so when they see bots getting back again only the voice captcha will be required to change. When i last visited raiblocks site the xrb distribution percent was around 33 and after a month or so its 35 something, so only a 2% a month gain in xrb distribution not to mention the coin rate that went down from 3500 sat to 1680 just now (so >50%), yeah ppl gonna say every coin dropped but that was 15 days back and take a look at altcoins value now and decide yourself. I have no idea how many coins devs want to distribute but at this rate it will take months to even get to 50% and who knows what will be the value of xrb coin at that time, as there is no limit on the wallet, so the ppl can sell as many coins they have and claim again....

My only question is where do they want to reach?
And my concern is When they do reach the desired xrb distribution, will there be any value left of the coin?
Why can't they limit the ppl from selling this coin by putting limits on the wallet?

By this pattern ppl are getting a message:- claim this coin > Sell this coin to btc or other altcoins> Claim again> Sell again

the threshold is rising up again, around 1300+ now 
so it seems pool has figure out how to break the audio captcha?
or perhaps at least they able to help user solve current audio captcha
I noticed the XRB russian thread has pretty active discussion
but even with google translate, I still can't understand half of it
anyone care to share some good discussion there in english here

This would be better then faucet, soo big holders, investors would be able to sell some coins to others, soo they could acess the distribution as others, the faucet cant keep that way pools mining paying unrealistic values to the workers and getting all the distribution. Light wallet should make transactions possible without any issue at all and i know developers are taking care of those, trying to improve the system.

Good point, you're right!
Maybe, if a setup similar to this one is used, is then a good solution to limit the accounts airdroppe:)

It's a lot of stress for the servers doing the POW to prevent tx spam. One tx needs ~5s POW.
We now have 120.000.000XRB.
Even if we limit the distribution to accounts with >1000XRB, there are potentially ~100.000 eligle accounts . This equals 100.000tx /day only for distribution. That's huge volume for a single server to handle.

The network should not be a problem :-)
If you don't limit eligible accounts, attackers could create many accounts with a low balance, whixh would result in even more transactions.

To put it into perspective: today there are 24*200 = 4800tx/day to do the distribution

Well, if the newtork is stressed for a few thousand transaction/day added by this hypotetical airdrop, then it means raiblocks is not good for a production environment.
But I think it is, and that those extra transaction won't be a problem!
As for the rich getting richer... well, POS works the same way but still widely used.

While this might be a really cool idea, it would put a lot of stress on the network and the server that handles transactions.
BUT, you could set a threshold that only accounts with >N (e.g N = 10000 XRB) get a daily payment.
Maybe you could make a weekly payment, so fewer tx would be needed.

With this solution,
- holding would be incentivised until distribution is over.
- buying more coins would be rewarded
- but it would also favour the "rich are getting richer" scheme...

I was wondering if it's hard to program a script that airdrops coins based on how much one has in it's wallet.
Frontiers list could be used to pull the % to distribute to each wallet; and we could have DAILY airdrops, following the inflactionary scheme that is already in use for the faucet.

It would be an incentive for people to hold their coins like in POS; and exchanges that usually gather lot of coins from their users, would get an advantage listing Raiblocks as they get a lot of XRB daily.
Therefore would be easyer for us to get on bigger exchanges.

What the... These guys are good in looking for a way to get around the faucet.

Please do something against those bots. Some verification process by mail or something different. They are dirty rats and thieves who develop those bots.

as an investor I dont want to finance bots

The pools are online again every hour the majority of XRB was sent with the same address.

What are we waiting to stop the faucet, one single pools has collected 160 000 xrb into 2-3 days not sure about the time it took, but its pretty clear the faucet is being abused with those ilegal pools wich redirects the users to the main faucet....https://raiblocks.net/account/index.php?acc=xrb_1krk59hztimazrartbssu5y311sa7qbgb5hrqpykwp1mfdxqzjijboktj93q  this one has collected already 700 000 xrb, its pretty clear the distribution model into faucet has failed.

I hope something will be done before day 15 October, its pretty clear this isnt working the way it were projected to be, fair distribution model isnt happening at all... I will ignore the other member above wich is clearing post non sense.... investors wont feed the pools greedy person for a long road, no matter raiblocks potencial. Its the same to make a new fork at bitcoin all days...

As i had sugested into slack maybe is time to ask the real supporters and not the faucet claimers and slaves...

We need a public vote using xrb to vote into the options we do have, i made an example

- burn remaining coins- send 1,01 xrb
-boost the faucet distribution- send 1,02 xrb
-airdrop the remaining coins- send 1,03 xrb
-stop faucet, use the remaing coins to marketing and get more developer inside the project, maybe a full time one- send 1,04 xrb

example wallet xxxxxx has 4 milion xrb and he does wanna to burn the remaining coins soo he will send once 1,01 xrb to the adress
example wallet xxxdddd has 30000 xrb and he wanna to stop the faucet soo he will send once 1,04 xrb

To get the community feedback would be easy to make something like that; would work even with just 0,01-0,04 xrb....


Each account would get a % vote according the number of coins he has, soo a 4 milion xrb account voting would have more value then 5 accounts with 100 000 xrb each...
