I wish they supported Monero!
- pbronez 2y agoThe most effective way to advocate for Monero support is probably to contact OpenNode[1], Kagi's cryptocurrency payment processor. You can also chime in on Kagi's Feedback site [2]. Their founder specifically addressed Monero there [3] """ Just to acknowledge that Kagi already implements with OpenNode to accept crypto payments so this is specifically about Monero. > I understand the technical issues with implementing Monero, but given the number of users that will be attracted to Kagi specifically because if its privacy, it seems quite inconsistent to only offer non-anonymised payment formats. We heard the same argument before implementing crypto, and the reality is it attracted very small number of users (less than 0.3% Kagi users pay with crypto). Since this was extremely hard to implement, and there are already ways to convert Monero to Bitcoin so there is path to payment, and based on our previous experience we expect the impact of implementing Monero directly to be minimal, we have decided to focus our very limited resources elsewhere (eg. make search better). Thanks for understanding.
