faucet drained #35

Open sponnet opened 3 years ago

sponnet commented 3 years ago

The faucet funds have been drained by an unknown party: https://ropsten.etherscan.io/address/0x1494aa58056e7f8761a82b2c9586b8fdb2c615ec

To the person emptying the faucet account: please send back the funds to the new address 0xcDA0D6adCD0f1CCeA6795F9b1F23a27ae643FE7C

Keep whatever Ropsten ETH you need for yourself.

This faucet provides service since 2016 to the whole community, so it's not a nice move to run away with everything.

If it does not get refilled - the faucet service unfortunately stops here.

Thank you !

how this was possible? where is a bug?

Someone probably guessed the password of the wallet & removed the funds out of it.. Very useless action, but yeah. Since I don't find anyone willing to fund the wallet again - it makes no sense to keep on hosting it. If you find another source of ropsten ETH let me know. TY
