If you are a fan of PIVX, the privacy oriented alt-coin, you may be interested in a new promotion going on right now. To promote the new shielded addresses that PIVX offers, a web-site has been set up to distribute PIVX hourly to a shielded address.

For those who are unfamiliar with PIVX, it is a privacy-centric alt-coin, much like Monero, Zcash, and Dash. PIVX has an active community supporting the development and continued evolution of PIVX.

The site is PIVX.Promo and you will need a PIVX shielded address to collect the PIVX that is being given away. Currently, you can collect every hour and there is no captcha or shortlink required, just a button press.

The current price (1 May 2024) of PIVX is USD$0.3254, and the faucet is giving away 0.0124 PIVX each hour (with perks), which is about USD$0.004, which is an astounding amount to pay.

The faucet seems to have plenty of funds to pay out for the near future. The funding balance has been increasing. probably due to donations, so it should pay out for some time. If this promo brings more people to PIVX, the PIVX paid out may increase in value, too.

Shielded PIVX addresses allow the user to transact in PIVX with both the sender and receiver remaining anomymous, and the transaction amount to remain secret. You also have the ability to operate in an unshielded (transparent) manner.

You can increase the faucet payout with various perks:

No longer do you need to opt-in for privacy. It is automatic with shielded PIVX addresses.

Shield addresses are available in the PIVX Core wallet and MyPIVXWallet.
