[Qgis-psc] Bitcoins

[Nathan Woodrow]

Bitcoins while a cool idea are pretty much dead, or might as well be.

I wouldn't bother accepting it as a payment type.

Hi all.
I have been suggested QGIS should accept Bitcoins. I do not know much
about it, but
apparently it offers the following pros:
- - more independence from commercial payment providers (PP here) to
accept global
payments
- - decentralised so free of censorship
- - encourage new communities to donate (BTC community here)
- - it is uncomplicated to support it (install client, create address, share
address,collect money, ...)
- - show support/respect of another open project .

The money can be withdrawn with 1% overhead, or can be used for
(sometimes weird)
services:
https://www.spendbitcoins.com/places/

I do not have a strong position, but it seems a good thing.
Opinions welcome.
All the best.
