People have been wondering about the $200 winners  far longer than your post about the $200 winners. There's nothing suspicious about the coincidental timing of your post and the winner. As far as you know, there is one winner, however since a micro-fraction of the site's over one million users actually post about their claims, it's highly unlikely this is the only $200 winner. Assuming that he faked a winner to answer your trolling is placing a lot more importance on yourself than anyone else would venture to grant you.

hey man. I love your site.

Lost shed loads of btc there. But no biggie. I won recently 1.74 BTC   . My question is : are you willing to offer maybe investing in your site like on dice sites?

The advertising option will be phased out in the coming weeks. People were losing money by investing in pozi's and depositing in fake gambling websites after seeing their ads on freebitco.in and thinking that they were somehow trusted because we were showing their banners.

Simply disallowing these types of websites hasn't helped because now these advertisers are creating a faucet website to get approval and then redirecting to ponzi's and gambling websites after their websites are approved. I do not have the resources to monitor all active ads regularly and so it makes more sense to just disable the advertising option.

Once it is disabled, ads that are active will continue to be shown until they run out. Any future deposits sent to the advertising deposit address will be credited to the main balance after this.

You can still create ads now. I shall start phasing this out within the next 2 weeks.

Just to correct you on the highlighted section. Wetsuit in his own words sends emails out to Big winners to request them to join this forum and this thread to report their winnings. I have never assumed that all users of this faucet are Bitcointalk forum users. They are actively being requested to join, to report their winnings to the public.

The min. payout was increased because network fees just keep going up and we are spending more than $200 a week just in auto-payout fees. Also, small transactions are bloating up the size of our bitcoin wallet which makes sending payouts very very slow. It takes our wallet over 12 hours to complete the auto-payout run now during which time we receive about a hundred "where is my money you scammers?" emails every week. The affected users will receive auto-payouts every 2 weeks now instead of 1 week so it's not really that much of a difference. Also, you should avoid receiving small payments to your wallet anyways because it just increases the fees you have to pay when you spend those small inputs.


Also the reward points needed to redeem for bonuses has been reduced by 33%!

can you answer a decent question i think your faucet is here long enough for someone to get max payment 10000, there is opened thread with alot of users playing and noone ever heard someone wins it, is it just like its there but it does not exist or is it a real chance to get it?
regards.

I send emails to all winners who win big prizes to let others know but most users do not choose to do so. Some have posted about winning in the two threads in this forum so you just need to go through the threads to find them. Also, many users who use freebitco.in are not users of this forum or they post in their regional sub-forums.

I do not usually reply to these questions because the free play game and dice game both are provably fair. If you feel that the website somehow cheats, please let everyone know how.

Wetsuit should sort this uncertainty out soon, because people are starting to ask questions. Just look at his post history, he has to explain this provably fair claims over and over again. ^hmmmmm^

As much as I can understand your sentiments, it still doesn't justify the initial tone that you took with users of the site. The investment of time and electricity is a decision that the user freely makes based on their desire to fill out a captcha for claiming their 300 or 400 satoshi per hour. No one is forcing them to do so. Additionally, the site doesn't require the user to use the lottery or the multiplier; those are all free choices made by the user themselves.

I never play the lottery anymore (I stopped while I was well ahead after winning the 3rd place in one of them), and I never use the multiplier. I simply make faucet claims here and there, continue to refer users to the site, and reap my benefits from it while fully knowing that the chances of me hitting the $200 claim is minuscule and nearly non-existent.

As for your argument that winners do not report their winnings... It is absurd to think that every user of the site is a member of these forums. I, for one, have only been a part of these forums for a bit over a year, but I have been claiming from freebitco.in since well before the time I joined here.

Like I said before, your arguments are extremely invalid, because you're basing them on a notion that joining this site is a NECESSITY to the user that visits it. At the end of the day, the choice is fully theirs, just as it is for you not to visit the site again. But to continue to make an invalid argument here with such fallacies continues to make you look like you're just digging a bigger hole that was based on your own misunderstanding of how the site operates.

You're definitely entitled to your own opinion, but when you start making allegations and demands that players stop visiting the site, it makes YOU look like your judgment is highly clouded That's just my observation, and I really don't know why I've spent so much time going back and forth with you, especially knowing that our mentality isn't going to change on either side.

So this will be the last time I address you regarding this subject Thanks for the conversation, though; it actually ended up pretty civil here towards the end!

Now with this kind of tone, I can work much better. Anger just clouds your judgement. I have introduced a lot of my friends to this faucet a few years ago, and most of them were under the impression that this site were paying up to $200 per hour to some random winner. They have used it for a while, and then realized that they would never WIN more than 300 to 400 Satoshi's per hour. Most of them moved on, calling it a scam. < Their words >

As for people not having to deposit anything to participate, I would have to differ from you. They spend their time and the cost of their electricity, by doing this and some of them deposit their own money to buy Lottery tickets. Browse back in this thread and you will find people mentioning that they bought x amount of tickets and they still won nothing.
< The answer are always the same, "Buying more tickets only improve your chance, it does not guarantee it"  >

The fact is, this site are not regulated, they claim to be provably fair but it's not proven and winners for whatever reason do not report their winnings? It is just logical for some of us to start asking questions.

Most faucet users are from poor countries or they live in 1st world countries, but they not wealthy. We should make sure that these people are not exploited by sites that may not be above board, so questions needs to be asked, even if it makes some people uncomfortable. ^hmmmmmm^

did the advertise format changes?

I Tried to promote a lottery site

and it now says doesn't allow mlm/gambling anymore, why?

previously i always promote gambling site and it was accepted, not sure when the rules changes

For the record, Kakmaker, calling you dumbass or imbecile is much different than stating that you're acting like one or portraying yourself as one. I do like the debate, however, so thanks for that.

But your argument is still invalid in the sole fact that (after reading your last reply) you still seem to think that there is an expectation of someone getting paid out $200 every hour. I still don't know where you got this notion from, and I think it's safe to assume that you small into a very small percentile of people that think that someone is winning $200 every hour on the site.

As far as the site being provably fair, I would say that only matters when users are depositing their own money to play on a gambling style system, such as with the multiplier/dice section of the site, which IS provably fair. As far as the lottery goes, you enter it and buy tickets using your EARNED rewards from the faucet, which is zero risk of losing anything but the time the user put into claiming from the FREE faucet. At the end of the day, nobody is forcing anyone to claim from the site. But your argument has holes in it because you're basing it on your perception of the user being forced into making claims from the faucet and being required to play the lottery, which is not the case.

If I didn't think the site was fair OR worth my time, I wouldn't go back to it. Simple as that.

My reaction to your argument is solely based on your passive aggressive tone towards the players of freebitco.in, along with the owner of freebitco.in, in which you make it sound like he is scamming people because he's falsely advertising a claim that YOU have misconstrued and misunderstand (I have never once ever thought or believed that $200 were being paid out every hour lol) and is not providing proof of a provably fair system for the faucet. That's just absurd, and using a similar logic is why I say you look like a dumbass and an imbecile.

The name calling is so cute, I guess I touched a nerve there. Keep on using the site, one day all your Captha solving will pay off. ^heh^


The point is, you are creating a expectation from people that there are a $200/hour payout, when there are virtually zero chance for them to win this. < What is the % of chance for people to roll the maximum number again? > VERY small. 

Other people and myself, will have to make baseless accusations, because we do not have source code or reports to analyze the results. It's just the way it is. I can prove nothing and you guys can, but you not doing it.

The Lottery is a beast on it's own, and I have yet to see one system that would prove beyond reasonable doubt, that it is fair. So I would give you that. Most National Lotteries are being audited by skilled independent auditors to verify that it is fair, so the closest you could come to that, is if you hired the service of a trusted < skilled > member to verify the authenticity of the draws. < This too has it's drawbacks, but it's better than a automated verification >

As I have said in some of my previous posts on other threads, I want this site to be legit because they have been around for a long time, and OP is a nice guy. It just bugs me that the provably fair systems are suspect and this casts a dark shadow over the Lottery. < As you said, other people made false accusations too, and this will not stop until the system is proven to be provably fair >

Hope you would find a solution soon, because all this debate would not have been necessary if there were proof. Just glad to see open debate is still tolerated. ^smile^

Yes, most of our users are from non-eglish speaking countries and 90% of our support requests are in other languages (russian and spanish being the highest if I recall correctly). It makes sense why most winners would not post here. However, winners do tell other people since our traffic has grown by more than 100% (probably near 200% but it's been a while since I checked) over the last year if I remember correctly.

I don't know whether the rolls are honest or not, but your entire argument is based on the assumption that every, or most of freebitco.in users are not only active on bitcointalk but also in this very thread. I'm sure significant portion of users don't even speak English, probably for many their experience with cryptos starts and ends with using faucet(s).
And even of that (likely) small portion of users active both on faucet and forum, many would simply not bother with reporting/bragging about their winnings. If you rolled 10000 while taking a dump in your work, would you care about taking a screenshot, uploading image, logging in to the forum and posting? I certainly wouldn't.


^ not sure what you tried to do here. You showed that 1 user dedicating all his life to claiming faucet payments (no sleep, work, holidays etc) would, on average, hit top payment 2.6 times every 3 years (26,280/10000), or 0.88 times/year.

lol, the database had crashed which caused downtime of about 3 hours. Everything is back up and running now though and there is 3x reward points until the end of this Sunday UTC to compensate for the downtime. Also active bonuses during this time have been extended by 8 hours.

--------

As for the claim "win up to $200 every hour", it means that you can play every hour for a chance to win UP TO $200. It does not mean we pay out $200 every hour. I see many people claiming that we do not pay out $200 but if that is true, it means that we have found a way to manipulate the provably fair system used by most gambling sites since all our rolls are provably fair and we use the same system of generating numbers as other dice websites.

If you can prove that the provably fair system that we use can be manipulated to roll the numbers that we want, you can claim that we do not give out the prizes that we say we do, but until then you are just making baseless accusations.

As for the lottery, I have asked multiple times for anybody to suggest a better way of picking numbers that is provably fair but I only see people making false accusations and no actual critical feedback. I would be happy to implement a provably fair system for the lottery too but currently I do not know of any way to do that.

Dude. At this point, you're just digging yourself a bigger hole, and making yourself look like a dumbass. If your argument is that they are scamming people because they advertise that you can win "up to" $200, then you need to start going after (or stop supporting) all the businesses that make commercials that advertise prices "as low as" $XX.

I have no reason to back freebitco.in or vouch for them other than the simple fact that over the past few years since I've used the site; they've paid me (on time) every time a payment was due.

So how about you get off your high horse and quit trying to look like an internet badass that's saving people from being scammed from this site... When there's no scam in the first place. You are seriously making yourself look more and more like an imbecile the more you try to justify your reasoning.

Seriously, bud, just stop. Cheers!

I actually waited for this kind of response, because that is the "fine print" everyone is missing. If you state UP to $200 per hour, and you are not saying that the $200 will almost never be won, because of the bad odds, you are misleading the average person. They see UP to $200 per hour.

It is not so much what you are saying, it is more what you are not saying.

So you have won $10 for a 3rd prize or a 4th prize, and now you feel that you need to back this site, and I can understand that motivation, but let's be honest these 1st prize lottery winners and $200 faucet payouts are bordering on being a Myth, like the Loch Ness Monster or Big foot.

There are enough people, claiming that they have seen them, but they have zero proof. ^lol^

As BTCforJoe's comment above, where did you get the information that there are winners of $200 every hour or even everyday?

Winning of that payout which has the lucky number of 10000 from the free faucet in Freebitco.in is 1 in a 10,000,000 or more! That's why there are no 26,280 winners of $200, so, where do you get that info?

Wait... Do you actually think the site claims that there is a $200 winner EVERY hour? Where the hell are you reading that?!

And I personally know someone that has won the 1st place prize in the lottery. Believe what you want, but if your belief is based on your misunderstanding that there is a $200 winner every hour, no wonder you're as jaded as you are. SMH

Take offense if you want, I am not phased in the least. I made a rational observation and I stated the facts. This site has been claiming that there are $200 hourly winners for years and they even claimed that they are encouraging users to report their winnings in this thread.

We see the odd 3rd and 4th place reporting here and zero hourly winners and we should be gullible enough to believe that this is not manipulated?

Let's say this site has been around for 3 years. {It has been for more than that} OK, basic math would bring you to this : 24hour per day x 365 days = 8760 per year x 3 years =  26 280 Winners!!! ... And ONLY one have reported that they have won $200 in the hourly payout, since this has started?

The math has won this argument my friend. ^smile^ Your 3rd and 4th prize is just a smoke screen for the lottery to continue. The real money, 1st and 2cnd place has never been reported. ^Rofl^

Look through the forums and you'll see that plenty of people have won the lottery on freebitco.in on numerous occasions. I've won 3rd place before, but I can't be bothered to go back in my history and find it for you. If you feel like the site's a scam or find it fishy, simply don't play. But your passive undertone of "fuck you" was enough to get me, just an average player on the site, to take offense to what you wrote. Just sayin.

Yes, I find it very strange that I have highlighted here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=320959.new#new that NOBODY has ever won the $200 hourly faucet payout, and BANG it just happens within the same week. The timing for that was impeccable to say the least. ^Rofl^

Well, What more can I say now that we have our FIRST supposed $200 hourly winner.  ^fishy smell^

One of these days, we might see our first Lottery winner too, because nobody has ever reported that they have won that. ^LoL^

Congratulations to the winner, your timing was perfect. ^hahahaha^

It's working here. Some hours ago it was working, but without ads, it was strange, but now the site is loading and going fine with and I see ads again.
