Rinkeby Faucet Down

[PatrickAlphaC]

https://faucet.rinkeby.io/

I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I hear one of the mods here runs the rinkeby faucet. A ton of new developers are trying to use the rinkeby testnet, and the faucet is malfunctioning.

Is there someone here who owns it and can bring it back up to speed?

[PatrickAlphaC]

Or better yet, can someone send me a bajillion Rinkeby ETH and I'll spin up a new faucet?

[hexcowboy]

I'm able to send small amounts of Rinkeby ether to anyone who needs it right now. Just reply with your address.

Edit: sorry I'm all out, no more donations :(

Any chance you have a bajillion?

[hexcowboy]

Any chance you have a bajillion?

No but I remember @prestwich asking to trade a bunch of Kovan ETH for Rinkeby ETH. Not sure if it ended up happening.

[prestwich]

nah, sorry. nobody ever came through at size

[PatrickAlphaC]

Dang. I also have a bunch of Kovan ETH.

It looks like the rinkeby ETH faucet address has like infinity Rinkeby ETH. https://rinkeby.etherscan.io/address/0x31b98d14007bdee637298086988a0bbd31184523

You need to paste a link to the social media that you posted the tweet to, not your wallet address.

Otherwise check here for backup rinkeby faucets: https://docs.chain.link/docs/link-token-contracts/

These are only chainlink faucets

other eth faucets would be: https://faucets.blockxlabs.com/ https://app.mycrypto.com/faucet

and i published a few hours ago: https://ethily.io/rinkeby-faucet

[calvinrosson]

The Faucet is clogged (again) for the last 5 or so hours.

[Suhail]

Looks down still. I'll take a gift donation though on rinkeby: 0x86794bFaa1d0b472A8B470059623373Bad636FBb

@PatrickAlphaC please reopen

The faucet has been down for 22h now, out of curiosity - what is the problem here? Why is it difficult to serve a faucet (I'd say rather simple service) with high availability?

[canivel]

Please help with some 0xd9c681F4c61B8E5B8Aed276458C7b6f3E14ea318, opensea only accepts rinkeby that is probably overloading something
