This is certainly one of the most advanced faucets in the crypto-world today. I would support spending 100k GRC from the Gridcoin Foundation, to fill up the sponsored fund. One of the most common questions from newbies is "I set everything up, where is my first payment" and probably many quit because Gridcoin can be slow with that. Thanks to @sc-steemit, we have a decent solution for that issue now.
