i have ran countless faucets. i have recieved donations of various altcoins. i have only recieved one donation for btc ever, and it was from Microguy. I was requesting a loan for .0027 to renew my hosting account(roughly 25 cents at the time iirc) and he just gave it to me and said, it was a donation. which reminds me, i have the money to pay him back now.

To be honest I was not expecting this kind of response. Whilst checking a few addresses they seem to be empty, however if I may gweedo, "Yeah, I get tips a lot, cause I am helpful", that provides a fundamental answer.

Listed addresses being empty does not mean that the person has never been tipped, since they could put up a new address after receiving tips. Conversely, an address having bitcoins in it does not mean the person was tipped, the payment could be from something else.

Hi,

I've just been wondering. A lot of people openly display their donation address on the forum however what I'm wondering is does or has anyone given or received a donation?

In my "Poetry" thread I handed out a bunch of tips to people. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/poetry-contest-tip-your-favorite-poems-219714

I would imagine that most of the addresses found in signatures here are not used anywhere else.

So just run the address through blockchaininfo and you will have your answer.
