is this thing still banging or did it turn into this https://letstalkbitcoin.com/blog/post/the-daily-decrypt-how-to-set-automatic-tipping-recurring-payments-in-bitcoin?utm_content=buffera3f09&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer

Seems it kinda died. I bought a bunch of coins so I could test the platform, it was kinda fun. The Firefox extension never panned out because of some code insecurities.

They have an extension that does the same thing with Bitcoin, iirc. I was going to use it in a project I was working on, but the individuals that hired me dropped their project too so I haven't reviewed it in weeks.

Not dead but sleeping. Firefox users can use the miniWallet which is on the website to send tips. But this did not catch on. So we need to change the concept. Keep your coins for now.

Hah nice to know you are still around. I'm still hodlin' my coins, have spread few around every couple of weeks. Twas' a shame about the miniWallet didn't catch on Undecided

I like the overall concept so it will find it's place. It's a nice way to send a few bits without need for centralized services like changetip, it could conceivably eliminate the need for shapeshift.

How could it eliminate the need for ShapeShift?

We are thinking of changing the concept so that you don't send the tip anymore to the website but instead you play a little investment game around the newsworthiness (or relevance) of the URL (article, post, ...). Feedback welcome!

I'll elaborate on the Shapeshift comment in a future post.

Adding some games around this would be idea. I also checked out the market on bleutrade. No buy support unfortunately, though I can get nearly 5 million coins for < 1 BTC so that's kinda nice.
