⚡ I just open‑sourced my Lightning faucet on GitHub
https://github.com/DrSteve2005/fountain-of-youth
I’ve been hacking on a LNURL faucet for a while, mostly to learn how all this Lightning stuff actually works under the hood.
Today I finally pushed the whole thing to GitHub — code, jackpot logic, payout flow, Cloudflare setup, everything.
It’s my first proper repo.
I basically learned GitHub, DNS, LNURL, deployment, and backend structure by messing up repeatedly until things worked. The faucet is live, stable, and now fully open source.
⚡ What it does
LNURL‑withdraw faucet
Dynamic payouts A small jackpot mechanic Anti‑drain protections Cloudflare in frontSimple deploy, simple code
Nothing fancy — just something fun that works.
🛠 Why I’m open‑sourcing it
Mostly because Lightning is built by people who ship things, even small things.
And because I learned everything by building this, so maybe someone else can learn from it too. Fork it, break it, improve it, whatever.
🙏 Thanks to everyone building cool stuff on Lightning.
Feedback, PRs, sats, roasting — all welcome.
I’ve never come across the on-chain faucet for BTC. It’s good to know about the Lightning Network sources for BTC.
