Idea: Money tree as faucet

remember the money tree web "game?" In the early web there was a very simple one page game called moneytree. There was a big illustration of a tree, leaved with maybe 1000s of tiny green bills. All you did was choose a leaf and click it. It was like a needle in a haystack but when you click the right one you got some sort of prize. It was like a lottery but you could play it over and over by reloading.

Sounds boring right? But from what I heard it had an insane amount of traffic. People would sit there and do it all day.

I tried to find a picture because it was almost as iconic as the big red button and the coffee cam. I couldn't find it because today it looks like there's a dozen money tree phone apps! That same boring idea is still insanely popular!

Well I think people would click it all day long if they thought they could get some bitcoin out of it. its like a proactive faucet- If you won you would take the extra steps to learn how to receive your bch prize. Currently you have to learn first about BCH before you bother going to the faucet and then you only got a nickel. The money tree will result in more adoption than a traditional faucet.

The money tree's prize can be large since it is awarded less frequently. Also (and this part is from a dream I just woke from) The prize jackpot can be displayed on the screen as it varies. For example it can vary with the prize proportional to the number of players currently playing it. "There are now 961 players clicking the money tree! try your luck to win 961 mbch. No one has won for 7 hours 32 minutes and 8 seconds..." Obviously You can create a better optimal prize formula based on proper statistics that results in restocking the silo affordably.
