Ok, where exactly are we at with this? You are still wanting to change your name to what exactly?
How much are you looking to raise?
Would a selfie at the courthouse with official paperwork be provided? How open are you to letting the largest donor pick your middle name?
So many questions...
Same name change as in the PGP-signed OP. Middle name must be Satoshi; this is a Bitcoin Project Development.
I personally don't want to touch any funds or fundraising. If there was a single sponsor, they would pay directly to the required entities as outlined in the OP. Multiple sponsors, they pay to the project manager, legal counsel, or escrow, who'd then pay the required entities.
I'd be willing to participate in reasonable PR such as a posed photo with/without sponsor handshake at the courthouse, text-based interview for sponsor press releases.
