A well-established and popular bitcoin faucet that began operations in April 2014 is up for sale. The site has gained significant traction, boasting an Alexa ranking of 9,822 as of January 2016, with over 700,000 registered user accounts and 35,000 unique daily visitors. The site is highly configurable, allowing for easy adjustments to faucet claim amounts, and is protected by captcha options. It features a fully functioning affiliate referral system, reducing the need for additional advertising as existing users actively promote it. Since its inception, the site has paid out over 300 bitcoins, roughly equivalent to $120,000.
Prospective buyers will receive a comprehensive package that includes the domain transfer, the full working code base developed with ASP.NET, a complete SQL Server 2008 database, a Chrome extension codebase, and social media assets, including a Facebook page with over 2,600 likes and a Twitter account with over 3,000 followers. Additionally, one month of support for site setup and maintenance will be provided, alongside various other marketing and operational assets.
The owner is selling due to a significant reduction in income after a Google AdSense account associated with their other site was disabled. The site's profits previously relied heavily on AdSense, and a new owner could easily restore and optimize advertising income. Potential buyers have several options, including continuing to run the site as a bitcoin faucet, redirecting existing traffic to another faucet, or converting the site for other bitcoin-related purposes.
