I have sent you 50000 coins, which is my personal action, worth 75 CNY, and we work together for the infinitecoin.

Thank you for that, I just noticed that my script was reporting a higher balance, so I came here to find out who donated.  Smiley

I have to do some more testing and tidying up of the script, but I think it should be possible to run this on multiple servers. With enough diversity it will be just like the network itself is rewarding 100 IFC every block.

Who else is running an IFC daemon on a unix server?

This is an example of how the auto-faucet works:

#1 (faucet transaction)
- 10,000 IFC sent back to own address (plus 100 IFC fee)
- 0.01963149 IFC change

#2 (coinbase reward)
- 0.00000011 IFC native block reward (dust)
- 100 IFC faucet fee

Total miner reward: 100.00000011 IFC

I'm not clear on how this works. My understanding is we'd want one faucet transaction per block, so I'm not sure how running the script on multiple servers will help. I'm planning to spin up a VPS and run the IFC daemon on it, just let me know how I can help

The script only kicks into action when the mempool is empty, so in theory only one dummy transaction should make it through each time - because now the mempool has a transaction in it - regardless of how many servers are running it. I need to add some randomness so that each server waits a slightly different period between checks, so we don't get 10 servers all seeing an empty mempool at the same time.

I had a power failure the other day and so it was a couple of days before I had the script going again. This is one reason there needs to be multiple faucets running concurrently.

Funds on my faucet are now depleted so we're back to dust for block rewards.
