One shared wallet, two rails. Ark and Lightning draw from the same spendable balance. Native on-chain Bitcoin remains isolated.
Hourly funding and payout activity, plus an observation-only liquidity guard.
Reading pool health and recent payout demand…
Aggregate successful browser and API payouts only. No addresses or identifiers.
Rate limits: up to five reserved or successful claims per shared IP every 24 hours, one per destination, and a balance-scaled daily cap. On-chain payouts are limited to two per day because they consume Signet block space. Tor and I2P do not use the IP limit.
Contribute valueless Signet sats over Ark, Lightning, or native Bitcoin Signet. Choose the pool you want to fund; incoming funds update the balance graphics automatically.
Send current Signet Ark sats to this reusable address. Refresh older Bark funds before contributing.

Open the onion service in Tor Browser, or send the same API requests through a Tor SOCKS proxy. The form, documentation, and agent API work at the same paths.

HTTP is expected for a v3 onion—the onion address provides authentication and end-to-end encryption inside Tor. Verify this exact address on arkfaucet.com before sharing it.
Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, and other agents can discover all three payment rails, request sats, poll queued on-chain claims, and handle structured errors without browser automation.
Ark is a Bitcoin Layer 2 protocol that scales payments using virtual UTXOs (vTXOs), coordinated rounds, and unilateral exits. Unlike Lightning, Ark doesn't require channel management or inbound liquidity. Bark is the open-source wallet and CLI for interacting with Ark on Bitcoin Signet and mainnet.
For Ark, follow Second’s Bark Signet setup guide, create a separate wallet, and generate a fresh tark1… address. For Lightning, paste a fresh Bitcoin Signet BOLT11 invoice whose amount matches your selection. For on-chain, paste a fresh lowercase tb1… Signet address; the faucet broadcasts directly from its native Signet wallet. Never use --force on a wallet containing funds.
