when is wikipedia going to start accepting bitcoin for donations? hmmm?   Roll Eyes  ~n00bs

It accepts Bitcoin for ages.

ok i see ya hidden~ they are certainly not promoting that in their current fund drive :\ hmm

What bugs me is that they not only make it hard to find, they make it hard to do.

Instead of just posting a QR code and accepting anonymous contributions, they use a third-party payment processor and want identification.

I went through that process several years ago but told them that they were possibly missing out on donations by not simply posting a QR code. It fell on deaf ears.

They don't have a clue about how Bitcoiners think nor about how much the Bitcoin nouveau riche could help their cause.

Needless to say, I haven't given them a penny or satoshi since. I love and appreciate Wikipedia and would love to help but not if they're going to go prying into who I am.


ya isnt that the point >.> so peeps can make anonymous donations? :\ hmmm
