Hi there, 2017 is ending, i am curious what thing/fact pissed you off the most in the BTC / Faucets world this year Smiley

my top 2 is:

1) faucet owners using coinhive without warning the users
2) tons or url shorteners that become scam after few weeks/months




Before I partnered up and ran Coins4Days, I owned a solo bitcoin faucet. It was eaten alive by bots and I was forced to shut it down. I gave away .25 btc. If only I had kept it until the end of the year! Tongue

I also think CH is quite annoying. Only if the faucet/website owner asks for permission to use their user's CPU power to mine coins is when it is okay. Consent is important.

Speaking of URL shorteners, I had a major problem with zap.in. 3,615 active links generated through their API. I got a 20 satoshi payout. I do not use them anymore, anyone who does please be careful!
