Why should they forgo an opportunity for funding that allows people to donate in countries where direct bank transfers to the Tor project would be logged and marked as suspicious, and which is resistant to payment processors deciding not to process the donations? Because you personally don't like cryptocurrency? That is ridiculously childish.
- colesantiago 5y agoThere is no reason to present a personal attack with your non-argument. As I said before in other threads there are alternative ways they can receive grants for funding of Tor projects without endorsing crypto scams. I mentioned Mozilla and Rust foundation as examples. On the crypto tokens, there are tons of reasons not to use them as I have mentioned on this thread and others have mentioned as well.

- kerowak 5y agoPrivacy coins like zcash and monero should be considered distinct from the rest of the crypto sphere. They actually serve their use case very well, and of all cryptos they easily see the most use as actual currency rather than vehicles for speculation. Their use case just happens to be purchasing drugs and other illicit products off deep web marketplaces. Or receiving payments for ransomware.
