Users who left feedback on faucetpig.com, a site that distributes bitcoins, can be divided into four conditional groups. The Internet also found comments left by participants in the referral program. This category of people cannot be attributed to any of the groups. Let's try to figure out what they say about this site.
Four opinions about the project
The bulk of online entrepreneurs working on the project under discussion is divided into two opposing camps. In the forefront are people who declared the project fraudulent. The persons involved in the second group do not doubt the decency of the owners of faucetpig.com: payments to their wallets are made on time and in full.
The next largest team consists of Internet users who believe that the project under discussion is only good for earning pocket money. An amount sufficient even to meet the minimum requirements, they believe, is impossible to earn here.
So we got to the smallest category of users. They are outraged! They are angry with the fact that contactThere are no phone numbers or e-mail addresses on the site. Moreover, the site has not been added to the DMOZ catalog (registry of links) and this is also very suspicious.
Reviews about faucetpig.com, left by members of the referral program that do not fit the description of the above categories, were also found on the Internet.
Features of the affiliate program and the birth of new ideas
It can be assumed that the translation of this English-language site is incorrect: some (the smallest) of online entrepreneurs report that their wariness was caused by the lack of an affiliate program. Although this does not prevent other users from actively participating in recruiting referrals and creating affiliate content.
It is impossible not to mention one more fact. Particularly advanced netizens have figured out how to make money for sure thanks to the project under discussion: to create their own website, on the pages of which to carry out explanatory work. Explain to others how faucetpig.com works, how to use the tools provided to cryptocurrency miners by the organizers of the project, how to correctly fill out a personal page, how to work more efficiently, and so on.
Fun details
Users who already have a negative experience on the site in question are warning others to beware of this faucet. The work is simple (it consists in the selection of captcha), but it is impossible to withdraw earnings. The amount is sent for processing, where it is for a very long time…
Discussion of the reasons for this attitude towards bitcoin miners gave rise to only one version: perhaps the total amount (including the commission fee) of the minimum number of Satoshi earned to be withdrawn significantly exceeds the amount that the user plans to take.
According to another version, the delay in payments is the result of an increase in the minimum amount that a cryptocurrency miner can withdraw from faucetpig.com. User reviews suggest that few people know the exact figure, but if you believe unverified rumors, we are talking about 3000 satoshi.
There is also a third version, according to which scammers have settled on the site, who have the opportunity to vary the “minimum wage” depending on how much a particular participant has earned. People who have earned the required amount of Satoshi are shown a new amount in excess of the previous "minimum".
If you remember how many satoshis are in bitcoin and take into account the fact that the required amount of cryptocurrency can be earned within two to three days, this option looks the most plausible.
How Much Bitcoin Miners Really Earn
Assuming that the information published on one of the advertising content is reliable, the faucet pays 1000 satoshi every hour (another participant in the "referral" promises that the miner will earn the same amount in five minutes). The referrer receives 50% of the referral income and the minimum amount to be withdrawn is 50,000 Satoshi.
Knowinghow many satoshis in bitcoin (and this is neither more nor less, 100,000,000 satoshis), we can assume: either the desire to quickly recruit a team made some referees forget about the obligations specified in the offer, or the project is really fraudulent.
Strange as it may seem, but there were users who claim that they have repeatedly transferred earnings to their virtual wallets.
Who knows if faucetpig.com is paying or not?
People who reported that they repeatedly had the opportunity to pick up the earned Satoshi still exist.
Some cryptocurrency miners working on faucetpig.com (reviews of these users are freely available) and who did not want to disclose their real names, assure that they really received payment. True, some of them received earnings once (after which the payments stopped), and someone was lucky enough to do this several times.
On the Internet, information was found according to which the accounts of about half of the bitcoin miners who received multiple payments were banned for unknown reasons. According to these testimonies, before the ban, payments were made regularly.
When can a user be banned?
Each web project has its own laws. However, there are rules that everyone adheres to.
For example, a post or comment whose content users of the site may find offensive to themselves can cost the troublemaker a multi-day ban.
A person who sends spam (intrusive advertisingletters that the recipient does not need).
Why else do site administrators usually block user accounts? For flooding (meaningless endless messages on forums and chats), constantly repeating advertising links, as well as texts containing praise for competing projects (repeated advertising posts or comments).
Minor ban threatens for the following actions:
- Create a post that is already on the site. On many projects, a user who creates a new post sees a list of similar posts already posted by other members.
- Creating a post whose title does not reflect the summary of the post. Such "tricks" are resorted to by bloggers who have published an article, but suddenly noticed that the chosen topic has already been covered by someone.
- Incorrectly formatted post (meaning tagging).
- Plagiarism (appropriation of other people's texts).
- A political post without a corresponding one.
- Inciting a hacker attack.
- A call to violent action.
- Post or comment containing pornography.
- Images of mutilations and remains.
- Dissemination of other people's personal data (secret information, photos and links to personal pages of other users).
