that way it would limited one abuse (which is reached 1k and tip to bank) from faucet

That is why they limited the faucet to 20 claims per day. And even on 50 sats, you might make the 1k mark 2 or 3 times out of the 20 daily faucet claims allowed.

^ yeah, but when you factored the probability in, the chance to reached 1k is still only 4.95%, and even then, i see no problem with that, since they can check tip logs and just ban on withdrawal anyway since those are considered abuse

20 daily claims is a poor choice tho, it is make people either stop playing when reached the limit or try to increased the balance the other way, which is worse than just claim faucet and doesn't help people gain confidence to deposit or using the site enough to that point (well, to be honest. when i'm new to these site and hit a limit like that, i close the site and never come back again while forgotten it, which i did to stake at one point, only come back from a mail like "we give 10k sat to anyone, just ask support" and stick to it since then)

you will have people that will make 15 accounts

I hear you, and I think that is why they made it 20 claims per day per IP address. I think a good solution then would be one claim every ten minutes, at around 50-100 satoshis. This way people won't blow through their 20 claims per day so quickly.

the problem is ten minutes is really a long time for such a low amount (when you factored how fast auto-bet works on the site), for example with martingale (sound like a newbie strat to try out the site), people would lose the amount within 3-5 minutes and probably sit there and spam chat, spam forum, or just close the site

10 minutes timer is fit more for a faucet site (which you can collected faucet), not a betting site imo

we don't really see the numbers from server end, so it's hard to say, but yeah, i think an ip filter, or even an ip registry / per user might be a solution- but- i don't think they really care what we think about such matters. xD i'm sure they can appreciate that the faucet was useful to the users without money. 

 

That was me :D:D 

Woooah. Good for you. Congrats! (If it really is you. Hahaha. LOL.)

They might as well delete the faucet... Theres too much effort to do with all those captcha to claim such ridiculously low faucet amount.

I think faucet 50-100 satoshi is the best amount and 20 times a day is also normal quantity. And now 10 satoshi - is realy nothing. Think when for example ETH was 1000 and Happy hour come - you can get 20,000 and for 1 hour you can get near 200.000 and then you can play for it as well, as make deposit. And now you can get only 4000 via Happy hour and near 40/000 for 60 min. Its not a good ammount for manual play. So i think everything must be restored-) And farmers must go away!

Well they have been talking about completely removing faucet for a long time now. Even before Stake even opened, the admin talked about wanting to remove the faucet entirely. Staff have many times expressed how bad faucet is for them in chat, and how people were really abusing it hard. They compensate with giveaways and promotions though.

Why not just remove the crypto from faucet and add a Stake coin that is not worth anything so people can test still on real games, and then Stake won't have people abusing it. Sounds like win win to me lol.

the faucet is doing well its purpose helps people test out the site or sometimes you can use it for fun during the deposit time. Stake is doing well with it. Happy hours is good also as it promotes the twitter or another social platform. I was surprised and kindly trust the fair of stake when first join the site and know nothing about cryptocurrency. After seeing its working with me thanks to the faucet. And sometimes even some cheap players help me feels exciting while betting, they are most of my viewer of videos and one of my favorite promote is using the faucet as a point to test out the game.

I will admit, that the happy hour addition is a great idea :) Even though I often miss it due to time zone differences...

Hi who catch Happy hour with 4000 ETH? What are the results?

I messed it sadly. The promotion started at midnight where I stay, so I was asleep when it happened :(

Well they said it was just to try out the games, but you can try them out betting 0. So I think faucet is just going to get removed and the happy hour thingy will be replaced to a 1 hour faucet event. idk

I wish they kept it at 100 satoshi now. I mean why not limit claims and increase wager requirement first instead of decreasing. Can they really be losing that much btc. . .I wonder because on their post about faucet update, they said they were not going to say how much they were losing. I wonder why.

Posted

as for me its realy good idea to increase wager, but if they do this for new players, faucet waste its main goal - try of the website. For example they can give new players one day on faucet 20 faucets for 100 satoshi and then give it only for those who made deposit + wager for example 0.001 BTC.

The claimable faucet amounts as of today is so low to the extent it is just meant for us to try out the games at Stake. 

It would be ideal perhaps for there to be a introduction of a level system for faucet claimed size that coincides with total amount wagered perhaps. This can prove to be an attraction and benefit which in turn encourage more players to wager on the site in larger amounts.
