Bitcoin pioneer Charlie Shrem has launched 21million.com, a new Bitcoin faucet inspired by the original 2010 model. The project uses AI-driven development but currently isn’t functional, relying on potential community donations.
- The new faucet revives the 2010 concept but uses AI-powered 'vibe coding' instead of traditional development
- Current non-functionality contrasts with original faucet that distributed 19,700 BTC (now worth $1.86B)
- Higher Bitcoin value makes faucet economics challenging compared to early days
