I don't think that Freebitco is going to die. They are not only a faucet site anymore ... Faucet reward is so low that to my mind, those who claim it, have to spend it again on games like Dice
That's what Moonbit thought a few years ago.
That's what CoinPot thought until they shut down in February 2021.
That's what CoinPayU thought until they shut down their faucet last Christmas of 2023.
That's what BCGame initially did with their lucky spin until
they were smart enough to allow only users who level up to use it.
We thought so too, it's a small amount, what's the problem?! Nothing's gonna happen.
So no, this is wrong.
If FreeBitco.in won't do anything about its business model - hypothetically speaking shutting down their site would be more profitable than having it live. It sounds impossible, these guys are simply sleeping giant, they won't crash.
You can have as much gambling as you want on your site, if the amount of bots & fraudsters is larger than your profits you would have a negative book.
Do you have any idea how quickly bots & fraudsters can drain you? 1 satoshi sounds so little, but here's the math:
10,000 bot accounts x 1 satoshi = 0.0001 BTC
Add 50% Referral Commissions and you have a total of = 0.00015 BTC
That's just one roll, one, and it is offered every hour!
Bots work on a 24 hours a day basis, so 0.00015 x 24 = 0.0036
Get 1000s of those and 0.0036 x 1000 = 3.6 BTC
All of a sudden you realize you owe so many users so much, but guess what, these users aren't real or at least not genuine but they are very sophisticated.
In our blog we show a few examples of bots who were using our sites, people were proud to brag about it with blog articles and more.
Now go fight with them, they would contact your support asking why their withdrawal is not being processed - so initially you respond, but when your book has so many negative numbers - you can't sustain it anymore!
The only smart thing FreeBitco.in did was to invest early in Bitcoin, buy tons of it for a few dollars for 1 BTC, and they started early - so many years ago they had the best smartest decisions ever.
But right now, if they won't do what BCGame did, if they won't even do what we did (Change it from once every hour to 1 daily) or at least every few hours or lower that 50% commission, good users would take it even with 20%, just do something ... if it's not too late already.
Users are saying these guys have 0 customer support - it's for a reason, and not a good one.
And the pending withdrawals genuine users experienced this week is only the first symptom.
Yes, the turth is harsh, but it's best to lay it out than wait for the bomb to explode.
