The fees are way to high.
When just on 0.001btc you are paying 0.00015btc in fees for batch and 0.0004btc for instant?
It is way too high to be still having these fees attached to a withdrawal.
Other sites are doing 8000 satoshi withdrawals and another site is doing no fees at all.
So something needs to be reviewed because people are not going to be wanting to do any withdrawals if the fees aren't lowered.
They will just claim the faucet and just keep it on site.
I guess some sites are subsidizing the withdrawals. We are not. We try to pay minimum required network fee for the transaction to be included in the next block, and what we charge as a "flat withdrawal fee" is the average fee.
If any way to pay lower fees appears for BTC we'll look at this. Right now there is no Lightning Network, so it's hard to say if we'll support it or not. I guess we will, but I cannot promise that right now.
One thing for sure, we'll support other coins (likt LTC). With other coins the network fees are negligible so I guess it would somehow solve the problem for at least some players.

Good to hear this from you on this matter as it is getting way out of hand on the amount of fees that miners are requesting for just sending a small amount of btc such as my example below.
I just bought 0.00262btc on coinbase. That went okay and it is in my coinbase wallet.
Now I was about to send out this small amount of btc out to my other wallet so I can send it to my casino wallet.
Now this is where the problem lies.
It is asking for a fee of 0.0008btc just to send out this small amount which leaves me with 0.00182btc left.
That is over $13 just to send out at the current price.
