A few things I found about tip4commit by searching through reddit: - 4 months ago Bitcoin Core was happy to raise 1.8BTC in two days using tip4commit [0], but today's comment [1] signals they are not happy with tip4commit, because it encourages submitting large number of small commits - an IT World article about 40% donations being unclaimed [2] (1.384BTC) - "we discovered a security breach" [3] - OpenBazaar, a fork of Dark Market, a market for drugs, encourages to make donations using tip4commit [4] - "Tip4Coin donations look like they are stolen" [5] Unfortunately it looks like a typical Bitcoin project - naivety of the authors, in terms of technical and legal matters, plus douchebag attitude (ignoring others, even if they are owners of things they profit from), plus shady entities benefiting from them.
