Tachanka! accepts bitcoins donations.....


notes from email:

* clearly point out its limits in protecting the sending users' privacy,
just because there is a somewhat common misconception that bitcoin was a
fully anonymous way of payment, and also because knowing these limits
makes it easier for donors to donate

* state how bitcoin can be better than standard bank transfers (possibly
less monitoring and possibly more anonymity)

* prefer (and state that we prefer) face-to-face donations with neither
paper nor electronic trail whenever comfortably possible

* explain how bitcoins can be bought in a couple places in the world in
a way which preserves the donors' privacy as much as possible (think
ukash, paysafecard, pre-paid credit cards, other kinds of pre-paid
systems and vouchers) and with minimum losses in fees (which usually go
to entities we specifically do not want to support); we should probably
concentrate on the richer countries there (since this is where we'd hope
most donations to come from)

* generate bitcoin addresses in a way which maximizes donor privacy
(e.g. I'm not sure whether it makes a difference in terms of a third
party to correlate whether you create 100 addresses at the same or
whether you spread it out across some days with random intervals)
