I was asked you which is really proof its stopping bots or not? How you said, you running same payouts settup for recaptcha and funcaptcha right? So question (proof) is or your daily spending on payouts went down when you start using funcaptcha? If this funcaptcha stop this ''human powered captchas solving service'' your daily spending have to go down right?


Looks like its too hard questions for any one who running funcaptcha Smiley

Personally I believe that both Are you a Human and FunCaptcha are safe. The "proof" that Are you a human can be bypassed is this: http://hackaday.com/2012/05/25/captcha-bot-beats-new-are-you-a-human-playthru-game/ . But read the comments there. It doesn't actually get accepted. The game shows that it was solved, but after actually submitting it it gets rejected. Some people reported that Are you a human isn't safe because they were hacked, but that didn't have to do anything with captcha itself, but with them being sloppy with their passwords.

I think that captchas that can't be solved based on single screenshot are safe as for now. Just don't try so hard to see bots everywhere, in most cases these are hardcore but legit users that just spend really huge amount of time on faucets.

The best test is to compare it. Try each captcha for a day or two and see which one results in smallest spendings. Only a small fraction of legit users care what captcha system they use, so that shouldn't be a problem.

No captcha is 100% safe from bots.

Changing your captcha service every so often probably isn't a bad idea though. I would assume the attacker has a list of recaptcha sites vs solvemedia vs areyouhuman etc and then puts a specific bot for each site? It seems like bots are specific to the captcha type and not universal. So if you change your captcha service every so often it might annoy the botter enough to stop targeting your site.

Looks like the funcaptcha not stopping bots? Maybe it saying that it stop, but payouts saying different.

and much more..

I've only checked a few faucets from payouts lists of these addresses and didn't encounter any that uses FunCaptcha. Which ones are you referring to exactly?

Probably these:

That's maybe a bot (although I'm not really convinced), but I don't see any faucet with FunCaptcha here.

It doesn't look like a bot to me. He just doesn't withdraw very often from these faucets and they allow their users to accumulate coins. So this spike on the graph is just from a few cumulated withdrawals.

Interesting.

What stats do you have for those users in your database? I'll check those on mine now.

if i don't fix this Bot problem by the end of the week i'm going to start a bounty and pay developers to have a contest for the best idea and design.

What sites of yours are being botted?

PM me.

I'd really love to see that. Hovewer I think it'll be cheaper if you just pay someone to create a custom script for you. I don't think any bot will care to bother for just one custom faucet, looks like only generic sites are being attacked.
No, I really want to make a universal  so no one gets a monopoly on scripts and microwallets

How can I insert a checkbox ?
if not active , the address label and the captcha are invisible, and the faucet is set to disable .

Why would you want something like that?
