The Effect of Incentive Multipliers
On the left is an award based upon all possible incentive multipliers, using the same base value. Base*Daily Multiplier*Verified address*Brave Browser*Social Media*Hodl Bonus Total 342481 zennies
On the right is an award based upon no unnecessary incentive multipliers, using the same base value. Base*Daily Multiplier*Verified address*Brave Browser*Social Media*Hodl Bonus. Notice the difference. Total 2670 zennies.
342481-2670 = 339811 extra zennies if you qualify for all possible multipliers.
So why don’t we just give you the extra ZEN?

Because the Faucet is an educational tool. We want to pay you to learn more about crypto in general, and ZEN in particular.

To that end, we offer a Verified Address multiplier. The verification of an address teaches you the concept of cryptographically signing a message base upon your ownership of a particular ZEN address. This concept has ramifications for future Horizen products.

We offer a bonus for using the Brave browser. Why? We like their privacy focus.

We encourage you to associate your Social Media with your Faucet account. We hope you will spread the word about the Faucet, ZEN, Sphere, and Horizen to your friends there.

Finally, we offer a 3x bonus for any Faucet user that is willing to hold 10 ZEN in their Verified ZEN address. Where are you going to get 10 ZEN? From an EXCHANGE. So now you have created an exchange account and purchased ZEN and moved it into an account your control. Important lesson.

Some, who are exploring the idea of helping the Horizen Network by hosting Secure Nodes or Super Nodes, can be compensated for that service to the project to defray the cost of the Nodes. More details here:
