I suggest you do some research before you post in this forum and accuse a trusted owner and website about being scam. I have been using faucetbox for a long time now and they never stole my coins.

FYI Adsense itself is a scammer and you can never trust what Google and other companies are doing nowadays. Everyone knows that and I am sure you do as well.

In this era of bitcoin rising prices I can understand it is tough for them to cope up with costs and maintainance - that does not mean that they are scammers.

Stealling coins? I can't believe it. Their service is very trustful, many people complains about the late payments sometimes, but they paid in the end. I earn all my income from faucets on FaucetBox and they always paid me correctly.
I'm very sad they are closing the doors.  Cry

I think it's very bad day for faucet owners and users.

but I thank faucetbox for posting the announcement in advance.

other services just close with like 3-day notice, at least we can safely migrate in the timeframe provided!

I will always remember and love faucetbox!!!

FaucetBOX.com announcement

7th November 2016

We have a sad news to announce: FaucetBOX.com is closing. We disabled creating new accounts today. On 19 December 2016 we will disable our API, which means that faucets using FaucetBOX.com will stop working. We will continue to handle withdrawals for owners and users until 16 January 2017. You have 6 weeks to update your faucets and migrate to other micropayments services. Remember that you have to reach the payout threshold to receive a withdrawal. Faucet owners will have to manually withdraw their coins in Dashboard before 16 January 2017.

FaucetBOX.com never operated with a fractional reserve. We have enough funds to withdraw coins to all users and owners with balance above the payout threshold.

To ease the transition and give alternative to faucet owners, we released Faucet in a BOX update which adds Paytoshi.org and ePay.info support. We will continue releasing updates of our faucet script in the future.

Despite many efforts and great growth FaucetBOX.com didn’t turn into a profitable business and we’re not able to sustain it anymore.

We would like to thank all of our users, faucet owners and our whole community. You were great and supportive. We are very glad we could deliver you fast, easy to use and secure service. For many faucets are the first contact with cryptocurrencies and we believe that FaucetBOX.com left a positive mark on this industry.

Summarizing:
If you’re a faucet user, make sure you’ve reached the payout threshold before 16 January 2017.
If you’re a faucet owner, make sure you’ve migrated your faucet before 19 December 2016 and withdrawn all your coins before 16 January 2017.
All the best,
FaucetBOX.com team

What about safety limits? How will that be managed? I will not run a faucet without a safety limit in place.

Since FaucetBox is going to be closed down, but script updates would be released in the future, I believe nastyhosts service would also be available.

Yes, as far as I know nastyhosts will still be maintained.

Hi, I am not using FaucetBox script for my faucet, but minifaucet script (payouts through FaucetBox). Is it possible to integrate nastyhosts into minifaucet script?

Sure. Try something like this (untested):

Code:
$result = file_get_contents("http://v1.nastyhosts.com/".$_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]);
$result = json_decode($result, true);
if($result["suggestion"] == "deny) {
    die("Banned");
}

Since FaucetBox is going to be closed down, but script updates would be released in the future, I believe nastyhosts service would also be available. I have been using FaucetBox since it was launched. I must admit that FaucetBox is responsible for spiking the huge faucet user base, regular script updates with anti-bot measures. Many faucet admins were asking to cut down the fee from 2.5 to 1%, guess it has resulted in FaucetBox being shutting down. In my opinion majority of faucet admins would rather choose Xapo or some other new micropayment system than Paytoshi or epay. You have earned a good reputation in the crypto community and I am sure that your future projects would be readily accepted by crypto users Smiley

Important news: https://faucetbox.com/en/closing
~Snip~
Sad news that faucetbox is closing many micropayment websites did use Faucetbox for withdrawal. So far this was the best option we had thanks for the great service you guys offered. Still hope you will find someone with a good offer to keep faucetbox running.
Negative. I asked if they're gonna sell it, they declined.

Would love if I could purchase this project.
This is a very sad news and a very depressing news for FaucetBox faucet owners. FaucetBox had done a very great service. But as they say, nothing lasts forever.
They should sell to to you mexicantarget, but IMO, they have plans for their domain because if they have planning on selling it, we should have known before they announce the closing.

"Despite many efforts and great growth FaucetBOX.com didn’t turn into a profitable business and we’re not able to sustain it anymore"
I was never expecting to read something like this, with almost every faucet using their services I thought that they were profitable, what about the alternatives we have?I never used paytoshi or epay.

-snip-
At first, I thought that Kazuldur is getting high profits from his site, but when I notice that the site has very few ads and not so high fees, that's when I started to think if he still getting profits from his site.

Y'all cannot be serious?

Closing because of profit?

Why not just charge more for deposits again? And put some ads on the site? It's no excuse.
 I'd rather pay more for that than have to use xapo or blockchain.

I refuse to use paytoshi after my balance randomly disappeared and they never replied to my support request.
You got a point, since FaucetBox has no big rivals in terms of service, why don't Kazuldur continue the site and just charge a high fees. Besides, his very good service should be paid more.
But, maybe he has another plans for the site, that's why he didn't also want to sell it.

I'm really sad to hear that news. Faucetbox was G.O.A.T. micropayments service and closing of it may kill faucet industry. There are no good alternatives, other similar service is far from Faucetbox level and mostly faucet owners will have to close their faucets.
I hope that someone will see niche and will start similar service.
Hey, I am starting one. You can find my thread below this one in micro-payments Smiley
