At the moment i am claiming from this faucet regularly. I received several payments already in TRON, REDDCOIN, VERGE, even tried the Exchange which worked well with one flaw. At the moment i am waiting für my first STELLAR payment. ( i need 1,5 STELLAR for my lobster wallet)
But it has some flaws:
Withdraw Limits are relativly high compared to the payouts
The payments are not very high and you have to pay a fee for withdrawal
You have only limited claims per day (one day 99, next day 129, the following day 109. I havent figured out why so far).
If you want to Exchange, you must have at least 0,01 $ what is a challenge with some coins. Exchange is expensive too.
Hi I agree with what you are saying to some extent but I try my best to be understanding.
Payouts should get better after we accumulate more power claims, the loyalty bonus. And I am pretty sure they are working hard to add more features for us to earn more from the faucet and for them to earn more as well.
They are giving out coins that aren't supported by faucet hub, I think that's one of the reasons why they can't set the withdrawal limit too low. They will be flooded with tonnes of direct payment transactions if they do.
I don't know how faucet hub works when a faucet owner pays his/her users. But for direct payment, I think it's fair for them to charge us some transaction fee since they need to pay the fee as well when they transfer coins to our wallets. I am not sure about the 1.5% fee for faucet hub withdrawal though.
I don't think any faucet that earns from shortlink providers can provide unlimited claims for their users. The fluctuation of number of shortlinks available is most likely due to the shortlink providers themselves. I think the owner might be disabling some shorlink providers that are not paying or for any other reasons. I am pretty sure they are trying their best to find more reliable shorlink providers that pay as well. When they do, we can claim more from the faucet. Shortlink providers need to pay the owner first for the owner to have fund to pay us. That's how it works.
Regarding the exchange charges, I am not sure if it is expensive or not. Limited faucets provide this service and one that I can think of is Faucet Crypto. Faucet Crypto charges 0.08% per exchange if I am not mistaken. Anyway, the exchange is instant so I appreciate that. It allows me to focus on coins that I am collecting and it helps me to reach withdrawal limit much faster than usual. So all in all I am happy with it.
I certainly hope everything and more importantly the pay can improve but I am happy with their progress so far. AltHub is still new after all. Hope you can reach your Stellar goal soon. I myself is working hard to get more Cardano before the staking starts. If you have anything more to discuss regarding AltHub, it will be better if you post it in the althub thread. Cheers and happy claiming.
