Ridiculous. Bank wires can cost $20-50. Unless we are sending you thousands its rarely cost effective to wire funds. Use bitcoin for your donations like everyone else in the 'freedom' game.

Serious questions, is bitcoin still worth anything and has it become even remotely easy to obtain and spend? I still like the idea of it but, last I heard any real news about it, it was how people were loosing tons of it to scams and flams.

  It's pretty easy to get hold of BTC imo. You can either use a dedicated service like Coinbase, or buy them from sellers directly using sites like LocalBitcoins.

  Yeah, it's still alive and kicking. I try use it when I can, it has a lot of nice properties. As an unregulated industry it is abound with scams and fraud, but if you use common sense, and avoid anything remotely "get rich fast" or "altcoins" you'll do fine. If you're interested in it, I'd highly recommend signing up with circle.com or coinbase.com and buying $5 or $10 worth of bitcoin to play around

  To know if it is still worth anything, check out how much people are willing to give cash for it. At the time of this writing, it is well over $600 for 1 bitcoin, which was worth less than a buck a few years ago. Is it worth anything? You tell me https://www.google.com/search?q=btc+to+usd https://www.google.com/search?q=btc+to+usd Recently, I heard people were doing flim flams with US $ and the internet. Should I keep using those?

Errrmmm, they're not asking for "donations", they're mostly selling laptops for between about 300 and 600 UK pounds a piece. Not quite "thousands", but its not like they're proposing you spend an extra $20-50 to make a cup-of-coffee-sized "donation".
