KeenBux is a new "bux" site that has recently launched with the tag line "A promise To St@y Forever". Immortality for a bux site is almost impossible to achieve. This so called immortality did not last long. It appears the site has stopped paying and is no longer online. Site will be moved from the Watch List to the Scam List. See "cons" section for more info.
Here re the pros and cons of this site:
PROS: (History)
1. Forum - This site does have a forum. Forums are great for communication between members and staff. Members can post payment proofs, get support, and stay up to date on changes made to the site. You can find their forum here: http://keenbux.com/forum.php
Twitter: http://twitter.com/KeenBux
FaceBook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Keenbux/
2. Paying - They are paying and payment proofs can be found on the forum and throughout the web. Here are a few places where you can view these proofs:

3. All Countries Accepted - So far there are no restrictions and all can join and earn from this site. Will update if this changes.
4. Instant Payments - A great option for any site to have. No more waiting days or weeks for something you rightfully earned.
5. Fixed Minimum Cashout - $2 is the set minimum cashout. From what we can see the minimum cashout will not increase after your first cashout.
CONS:
1. Non-Payments - Their forum is receiving a lot of complaints about non-payments. Many are reporting payments are marked as sent despite payment has not been received.

2. Inactive Admin - Very little support or explanation coming from the admin about this issue.
3. New Site - We do not recommend investing or buying upgrades on new sites. For at least 6 months, if not a year. If you can't wait that long, at least test and get paid first before you decide to invest.
The main reason why we see this as a downside is due to the large number of new sites that go through many sudden changes during their first 6 months. Changes anywhere from rates per click, payment processor issues (paypal limitations), and payment wait times. New sites notorious for changing their terms. Why we do not recommend investing on new sites.
4. A "Bux" Site - This type of ptc has a very high fail rate. Most "bux" sites go scam under 6 months, if not within a year. Most rely on upgrades and rental purchases rather than actual advertisers. A typical "bux" site will show fixed/self-sponsored ads, sell rentals, and have a higher rate per click. This type of business model is not very successful and unsustainable, which is probably why most "bux" sites fail.
5. Whois Private - Hidden ownership.
