New Bitcoin Testnet4 Faucet Discussion

Drop your Bitcoin Testnet4 address here and grab up to 0.02 tBTC4 per request. New accounts get less, but watch out for limits due to abuse. If you want more, just post a new address.

Last year's thread nearly went south with people trying to sell testnet coins. I really hope this doesn’t go down that road again.

Testnet coins are kinda funny... they're only valuable because they’re worthless. If they had real value, they would lose their purpose.

Just sent you a hundred, so you should be able to give away more than the usual 0.02.

Glad to see you’re changing things up! But do you have a good grasp on how much abuse has been going on? It's been rampant for years.

Yeah, 0.02 tBTC4 seems fair for most. I mined like 200 of them, should last forever. If demand spikes, I might tweak those limits.

How are you mining those tBTC4? Using just your CPU or what?

Yep, just CPU mining, but I stopped after hitting a few blocks.

The faucet is still up and running.

Can I grab some tBTC4? Here’s my address: tb1q4ms3z04daqehzv9w98heu0jch9k0gxdxk456ew.

Started this faucet because I got tired of seeing others pocket big donations meant for real users. Do whatever with the donation, I don’t mind!

Thanks, but man, that donation came at a rough time for me… it took ages to get sorted.

Testing the faucet now with this address: tb1q4zr2rsxm040fqc0xsvl4dsxjkfjhxkh7lkejj5. Looks like it pays out 4x per request.

No problem, happy to help.

Here’s my tBTC4 address: tb1q725dvvqem2jpf0wjsx9z82h0gu62n448w5x8ye.

Just checking out a few transaction links from the faucet. Here are some: https://mempool.space/testnet4/tx/... and others.

I could use a year's worth, but knowing how this goes... might end up with nothing.

Faucet's working again, but it’s been sketchy for a while.

Is this faucet manual or automated? It looks kinda shady.

No doubt, if people aren’t trying to drain it, something’s off. But yeah, it's automated now.
