2020 - Discontinued - Corona Pandemic

  • Briefly launched a blog to address the consequences of the corona pandemic worldwide, but this was discontinued for a variety of reasons (read more).

  • Efforts to add functionality such as exchanging, swaps or trading or become more DeFi centric were made and a waiting list was created, but never reached past the initial development state. Regulation and requirements surrounding the features was too complex and too expensive to launch either publicly or privately.

  • Fixed an unintended situation that still allowed for occasional sign-ups during Q1 of 2020 for the faucet (despite the micro-faucet being stopped). Logins became read-only at first and were later disabled as well. Faucet accounts were cleaned up furhter (read why).

2019 - Discontinued - End of Service

  • Discontinued accepting new airdrops / airdrips. A viable business model was not found despite attempts to experiment with Airdrops/Airdrips, the creation of a gamification API and resource allocation (earn through distributed computing) as well as trying to implement staking.

  • Sign-ups for the faucet are permanently discontinued late 2019 and all activity stopped - there are too many fake / bot accounts that are difficult to detect

  • Deposits for consolidations from other faucets are no longer accepted, deposit addresses are being retired

  • Discontinuing the listing of the (beta) mobile App in the beta program of Google's Play Store

  • Future updates are posted on the website, no longer in the Telegram group - The history of the Telegram group will remain available for as long as Telegram saves it and the messages are subject to a moderation policy.

2018 - Many Fake Faucet Accounts - Reaching End of Service

  • Added social login support in an attempt to thwart fake sign-ups and close most fake and active accounts.

  • Refactored codebase to an SPA to address scalability issues and mitigate DDOS traffic

  • Experiment with airdrops / airdrips to find a viable business model, but there is too much automation / exploitation

  • Considering to discontinue the faucet due to fake accounts still being created and no suitable business model being found
