As I wrote, I don't like your choice at all.

Unfortunately I think I'll search for an alternative.
The same here Sad

Fact #1: During its 2 years of existence coinmap got only 1.9 BTC in donations ($435 at the moment). That hardly covered server running costs.

Fact #2: OSM data team started to hold me personally responsible for low quality bitcoin venues that started to appear in OSM. Some quotations from email discussions:

  • "Please bear your responsibility in mind or people _will_ add incorrect data, and I will have no hesitation in setting up a bot to delete it instantly."
  • "I would strongly recommend that you create your own database for businesses."

These were the two reasons led to the changes you see now ...
