On https://gandlaf.com/faucet/anarchy you can find a cashu faucet.
I implemented that faucet in a short hacking session, so it's probably full of bugs and might break. So I thought it would be fun to make a small contest out of it!
Kind of like a bug bounty or vuln bounty.
I give you guys my consent to attack the faucet at the given url above, as well as it's api endpoint at https://anarchy.gandlaf.com
there is a rate limit on the faucet, if you see a too many requests message, try again after a minute or so.
In order to claim the bounty, tell me how you took down the faucet.
If the faucet doesn't get taken down (which i doubt) the bounty goes to the best tries.
to claim the tokens on the faucet, use a cashu wallet:
or directly to lnurl: https://redeem.cashu.me

10.3k sats \ 3 replies \ @pi 20 Feb 2023
I read a bit about cashu and the Diffie-Hellman key exchange this weekend and was positively surprised by the apparent simplicity!

You're not alone with the feeling of being left surprised!

Bounty goes to @pi ! i thought i could split the bounty among commenters, but i was wrong! so the lucky winner is @pi (randomly chosen)

Thank you, Sir! That's very generous. 🙏

Just started playing with Cashu and chaumian ecash tokens / mints this weekend. Awesome privacy and scaling implications IMHO.

I have read about cashu wallet and it's really nice and simple still developing
reply
Yes! still in the early stages

The faucet is broken, some sats are in there and don't get scheduled for distribution it seems. Thanks for testing, i will choose a winner of the 10k by tomorrow, so if you haven't commented your try yet, do it now!
