Crypto needs this.. It's the only thing that's going to slow down the scams.
I encourage people to be sceptical at all times. That's one of the reasons I've chosen Opal to invest in, I know where the developers minds are at from their past performance.
Perhaps if people were more sceptical with Mt.Gox, or LTCGear, those things wouldn't have happened so easily. If someone questioned either of those, would you have said "It's amazing how people are always on the offensive"?
You don't want to be sceptical after it's too late. At the very beginning of something is the best time.
Your system is new.
Ok, well everyone has their own opinion. I am only creating this site so I can get people engaged in cryptocurrencies. Like I said I don't have to answer to anyone, donations are welcome but not required.
How can you prove that any of the claims are not any of your own wallet addresses?
If you have an automated system where people donate and load wallets
If you have an automated system where people can claim coins
If you have an automated system where it "logs" transactions
You're telling me that you also are incapable of:
Having an automated system where it skims coins on a regular basis from itself, using different wallet addresses? Of course you could.
It's like give me all the "money", I'll be in charge of all the distribution and all of the recording of transactions. I'll run the whole system, you just keep feeding it.
Very suspicious, sorry.
Right now your faucet system is small. But if it ever grows in scale, this can be an undisputed problem.
If there is an Opal faucet, I'd rather see it running on the official Opal website by an Opal developer who is already trusted by the Opal team.
I can't prove any of that, none of it is actually automated at the moment as we are building from the ground up.
OPAL have shown their support for this Faucet but more faucet is always good for a crypto.
Ok, so that makes sense. Instead of skimming, it was something similar, but not quite so evil.
You wanted to setup a donation site so people you visit locally (family and friends I assume, near your geographic location), could get a hold of some crypto without buying any.
(using your own words basically)
It would be better to just buy $50 or $100 worth and donate them to your family and friends or whatever "local" group of people you are talking about.
So evil? I don't see what's even evil in it. Not friends and family BTW you didn't get my idea of what the site is for. Is not about giving them a $ amount to them its having them work with cryptocurrencies.
