Mozilla dabbled in cryptocurrency donations before, when they were far less controversial, and still decided it was a bad idea. I wonder what changed - or have they just lost so much institutional knowledge at this point they can't remember their 2014 mistakes?

- xuki 5y agoBTC wasn’t using that much energy in 2014, of course nobody gave a shit back then.
- morelisp 5y agoYour comment would make sense if I had asked why nobody protested against BTC donations in 2014, but I asked why Mozilla started taking BTC donations again sometime after 2014. (Also, it was still using an awful lot and the trendline was clear.)
- xuki 5y agoHa, I totally misread your comment. My apologies.
