Does this mean jack is giving away 1 bitcoin?

Ok so.. they left their CDN exposed.

If you ping the domain, you get this ip:

151.101.129.49

It turns out this is a https://t.co/wqDjtIZMEy IP . I had never heard of fastly but it looked to be something similar to vercel, so I figured maybe they had custom deployment links like vercel does.

Tried a few different combos and BINGO:

This took me to this:

https://t.co/EaQKYxNtOy

That’s their CDN bucket on AWS. They currently have it setup so that any invalid endpoints redirect back to index.html

I went on a hunch and figured that they’d probably already have their production app stored somewhere in the CDN ready for deployment

I used SECLISTs (https://t.co/gafGrACoMC )and ffuf to try out over 20k different combinations on this URL.

After some sleuthing, BINGO!! I found these two files:
live.html
.DS_STORE
The important one here that immediately caught my eye was “live.html”. That sounded like a prod deployment.

And sure enough, it was!

This is what the https://t.co/eY5zWkX10Z site will look like on the day the faucet goes live:

It turns out the entire faucet will be revealed to just be a promotion scheme to get you to buy a bitkey and use cash app.

There is no faucet - at least in the sense most were expecting.

NO.

This so-called “new Bitcoin faucet” being hyped is already a mess.

Apparently, to get the “free” $50 in BTC, you first need to buy $150 worth of hardware.

So let’s call it what it is: not a faucet, just a dressed-up discount funnel.

The original Bitcoin faucet gave sats to spread adoption and reward curiosity. This one just smells like marketing wrapped in nostalgia.
