That's not even getting into an irony of throwing Bitcoins at a person whose life has been just severely discomforted by the very same subject.
- tlrobinson 13y agoJust like anyone else does it? Send to an exchange or service like Coinbase, withdrawal to your bank account. But it sounds like someone in the community will do it for him.
- finnn 13y agoAndreas M. Antonopoulos, apparently someone respected in the Bitcoin community, stated that he will convert any donations to that address into USD a the end of March and get it to Dorian. http://redd.it/1ztjmg http://redd.it/1ztjmg
- patio11 13y agoThe guy collecting the BTC donations has said that he will convert the BTC into actual money then deliver them using commonly accepted methods for payment in the United States. Delivering $X0,000 is not a particularly novel problem in the US economy. There exist many very straightforward ways of solving it.
- eli 13y agoI wonder about the tax implications of doing that. Seems like it would be pretty tricky if you were to follow the letter of the law.
- user24 13y ago> irony of throwing Bitcoins at a person whose life has been just severely discomforted by the very same subject. that's sort of the whole point. The community are apologising on behalf of Newsweek. Not as a publicity stunt, not to convert the guy to bitcoin (he will receive a check in USD), just because it's the right thing to do.
