Topic: PushButtonGetBitcoin.com - A bitcoin faucet/offer wall (Read 1573 times)
Can no longer log in. I see you added adblock check, but that is not the issue because it happens when adblock is disabled. No error message is shown when this happens, it just redirects to the homepage when submitting the captcha.
have a look at the open source of http://coinvideo.appspot.com see how security is over there, maybe?
With a quick look I see they require an email. I had though about this, but figured it would turn some users off, I'll check more of it how to see what other things are going on. Thanks for that post, I should be able to get some ideas from this to possibly make some back end changes.
Cool thanks, love free coins

I guess I'll lose out users to these sites then unfortunately. I've contacted virool with some questions regarding security, and based on what they say there's a chance I will raise the payout more. I can't say how these other sites deal with this issue, but I suppose I could contact them to clarify some things if needed.

It's nice, but you have the lowest payout by far for virool videos compared to other bitcoins sites. 1K satoshi per video compared to 5K or 4K on other sites.
I agree with this, so I have updated the payout for virool videos to 4k satoshi (40uBTC). I'm also looking to change the payout of the offer wall.[EDIT]
Lowered Virool payout due to high potential for abuse. It is now 33k satoshi, but may need to be made lower.
And yet at least 3 other sites pay at least 40 uBTC and have been for some time. They don't seem to be worried about abuse...

Looked at your blockchain page and there are a couple of payouts but it looks like you're not actually passing on the majority of the fee to the miners. You're only paying 0.0001 fee, but charging your users 0.0005. Is that intentional?
And it looks like the are separate transactions. Why not batch them up to minimize the fees for everybody?

Only a portion of the transactions are payouts for users of the faucet, and batch payments are something I can look into. It does look like a fee of only .0001 is being charged, even though documentation of the tool I use for the transfers says the minimum fee is .0005... I've updated the faucet to reflect this number and have changed the fee and minimum accordingly.
[EDIT]
The faucet has of the time of this edit made 6 payouts, and can be viewed at the block chain link at the bottom of the page.
There is a link to the wallet block chain at the bottom of the page which lists all the fountain's transactions, no users have cashed out yet, but this is mostly because of the miner's fee, so people tend to save more before cashing out. There is currently BTC in the fountain wallet, and is able to handle any cash out that could currently be made. (The minimum cashout is now .002 BTC, and miner's fee .0005)

Interesting site, how many cashouts have you had that were successful?

That's a good suggestion. I'd like to reduce the minimum fee, but need another method of transferring to do so. 
I'm looking for ways to do this though. I am considering raising the minimum payout so such a large percentage of the payout goes to fees.
Not sure what method you're currently using, but many faucets batch payments from multiple users together and the single fee for the transaction compared to the total of all the outputs is negligible; and some faucets don't even include a fee. I'd bet most users would rather wait a day to receive their earnings if that would avoid a fee. You could also offer an option to send immediately if they are willing to pay the fee. Sites like mtgox and peerbet do that. I'm looking for ways to do this though. I am considering raising the minimum payout so such a large percentage of the payout goes to fees.you should probably make the cashout fee more prominent. i was ready to cashout at the minimum 0.001, then saw there was a 0.0005 processing fee, so i would only get 50% of my earnings. now i'm gonna wait til i earn enough to actually pull out an entire 0.001.

Nice Site, sadly no Virool Video now but hopefully will change.
One (Bug) i found..it says for me after i pressed the Button..
"BUTTON NEXT AVAILABLE: 12 DAYS 18H 35M 17S" not 12 Hours..
I even refreshed the Page, not sure thats an issue cause my internal clock goes lately weird or its a script issue from your site.
After all..keep up the good work

The script uses your internal clock to update the timer, if your pc time is off this may cause issues. I'll look into implementing a script that doesn't use an incorrect time. When 12 hours have passed the button will become available again, regardless of what the timer says.

Have not seen a Wall 
but you pay 0.00002 that's nice

The right-most button that says open offer wall reveals the wall. It is closed by default for people who may not want to load it.
