Do you think the current faucet amount is still worth for people to use bots to earn money from multiple accounts? Somehow they also need to spend money on captcha solving software for the new accounts.
If I'm not wrong with current rate, each account can collect around $4 to $5 if one runs bot for 24 hours from one account from one PC for one year.
I think people earn better if they use this time more efficiently.
I do not think it is a method people employ now to make money, in the past we have seen many attacks against faucet sites from bots, but now the rewards are so small and no one tries to earn from faucets, i am glad that they are still retaining this faucet even though most of the faucets dried out and went out of business, i learned about the initial transaction because of faucets and it is important for newbie to get that feeling before depositing big amounts in bitcoin.
