Not sure why it would be necessary to run ads and popups on your faucet site. Why would anyone need to pay your costs? Odd business model.

Sorry to hear No Coin is causing you trouble.

I guess you can probably tie the mining to a user by using this: https://coinhive.com/documentation/miner#coinhive-user

This way you could know if a user actually mined for you before rewarding him.

thats always been the deal with any faucet, your traffic through viewing the website and interacting with the ads was the value you recieved from the faucet. one does not just give away money for free.
a faucet owner rely's on the ads from the faucet page to put value back into the faucet.
this is why you end up with popup/pop under ads and hidden buttons, anti bot captchas, recaptcha, lightboxes, surveys... etc. if you don't acknowledge the costs associated with the website and assume any
of them willingly the webmaster has to rely on the methods above to extract funds from the website to then keep said website running.
yes there is costs associated with running a website but in all cases webmasters attempt to cover those costs with ads.

most free websites are not actually free, in fact they are paid for through the use of ads.
if not for ads most if not all of these sites would have to charge subscription fees for users to account for the constant updates needed to keep something running in tip top shape.
some of your favorite services like you tube and face book are not free services even though they do not charge. they use your traffic and information to place highly effective ads in your face. which allow then cover the costs of running the site and pay the workers involved in the process. what my mining captcha allows for is similar to what you tube red does for you tube users. if you agree to pay a set fee,you tube red allows users to bypass all ads for a set period. this feature is like $10 is not required but is available for those who want to bypass ads. for my site i do not want a login, subscription or faucet cool down, the thing i want to be my limiting factor is simply the coin hive mining captcha, since it can single handily insure the site is at the very least profitable enough to keep giving out money. it also would allow for an unlimited amount of claims per day only limited by your computers ability to solve a hash captcha.

with mining captcha and my 3:1 rate i can just lock feature behind mining captcha that sustainably ensures for any one use of faucet in the future there will be another and this process wont be hindered by me having to put my own personal money into faucet. or have to resort to overly intrusive ads that take away from user experience. i could make a pretty much a never ending faucet. that is "free" to all users

without this feature on said site
i will end up having to reduce people to 12-24 claims per day compaired to the 90+ i had originally planned for, not to mention the possiblilty of ppc and popup ads appearing on my site has risen dramatically
which in turn would help people who are new to bitcoin and various other cryptocurrencies get into them
