I don't think it's about bitcoins. Wikimedia has also noticed that donations can decrease if you offer too many donation methods. They've seen this without bitcoins. Maybe donors feel like with all of those methods available someone else is already donating? Or maybe they get bewildered by the excess of choice?
- pinum 11y agoSpeculation: Would it help to offer two major methods (card, PayPal) prominently, and hide many more behind a small "other" link?
- jordigh 11y agoThis is almost exactly how Wikimedia accepts Bitcoin payments, behind an "other" link, with credit card and paypal being shown as the only two options if you click on "donate". In fact, it's kind of hard to find all of their payment options. The "other" button actually is called "problems with donating?"
- raverbashing 11y agoMy suspicion is that people feel it's "trying too hard" to get donations
- NetStrikeForce 11y agoIf it doesn't feel like a "one-click donation" I'm prone to skip it.
