Original Mozilla founder and author call out the project for accepting crypto
- chris_wot 5y agoIt does seem to me that Mozilla have absolutely flubbed many, many things. If they are into Crypto, then they are stupid for doing so.
- byteshock 5y agoCan someone explain to me why they are mad? Is it because Mozilla is asking for donations on Twitter? Or it it because Mozilla is accepting crypto? I don’t think a company accepting crypto as a form of donation is a bad thing tbh. Seems like they’re just trying to allow more people to donate.
- _-david-_ 5y ago>Or it it because Mozilla is accepting crypto? Sure seems like crypto is the problem with the "planet-incinerating Ponzi grifters" comment. Some people are opposed to crypto because it uses more energy than other electronic payments.
- sascha_sl 5y ago"more" is a little mild, one can probably power tens of millions of CC transactions with the power a single BTC block wastes
- randomhodler84 5y agoI think jwz is being ridiculous here. Mozilla is accepting donation payment in crypto via a payment processor. They convert to dollars. It’s like hating Mastercard or visa. Just a payment gateway dude, chill out.
