Topic: Can Faucets make a difference? - Pay it forward! - page 3. (Read 4964 times)

Well, I posted it on two forums and busy with Bitcoin websites and Reddit. 

My vision for this, is to make this idea public for faucet owners to read and possibly implement it.

Some of them are paying referral commissions of 50% and more and with some slight changes, they could redirect only 5% towards the "fund" for their favorite charity or cause.

I would like someone to take this and run with it. {Create one of those graphics with a thermostat showing the progress towards their donation goal and then paying it over, showing proof on the blockchain}

People would actually use it more, if they see the progress going up for a big donation. {They might feel as if they are part of doing this BIG donation}

Some people cannot donate and will feel good about doing this, with what limited funds they have.

They might even implement more than one on each faucet and people can choose what charity/cause they want to support. {You will get some people competing to see who's charity will pay out first}

It's kind of impossible to reach faucet owners, so this is the only way I can reach them.   
   

It would be a very good idea and I agree!
How are you moving to make this possible? Are you starting a petition?

I registered on the site as a member and then I volunteered as a moderator.

Site link in first post was removed to preserve this thread. It was only posted to give more detail about the idea.

If you want to know something about the site, it would be best to ask, in their signature campaign, where both Btctalk and BitBiz is being promoted.

Let's keep this thread for the idea and question I posted here.

I am a faucet newbie, when it comes to faucet scripts and I do not know, if it would be possible to implement something like this.

Are you in any way connected with bitbiz?

I have discussed this on another forum and would like it if someone could incorporate this option in their faucet.

Use your faucet to make a difference

Why not incorporate something good within a faucet. {This can be anything - Poverty elleviation / Animal cruelty .....}

You use these faucets to help someone else. { A small portion of your income goes towards a good cause, say 5% of each withdraw }

This can be voluntary or compulsory, you choose, when you setup your profile/faucet. {Take away only 5% from the referral commissions towards this}

Give the users a drop down menu to choose to which charity/cause they want to donate too.

Many people do not use faucets, because it's a waste of time, BUT if you know a small portion of that time/income goes towards something good, you might consider using it.  

So we crowdfunding donations to good causes, using faucets.

2,355.24829985 BTC {5% of this is +/- 117 Bitcoins}

*Imagine if 5% of that was paid out to some good cause? { 117 Bitcoins can make a difference }
* I can already see this in the press - Bitcoin faucet donated $50 000 towards SPCA {Insert your charity or cause here}

Pay it forward
 
My goals for this is ambitious, but I have learned, the small things make a huge difference, when a lot of people are doing it.  

Edit : Removed the site link, because some people might think, I want to promote something and I don't ..just posted it, because I created the idea there first, and it had a lot more information and meat. Hope everyone is satisfied.
