I've downloaded and installed and am game to try with p2pf network folks. This could actually be really useful for lots of local economy efforts too. On Fri, Jan 14, 2011 at 5:32 AM, Michel Bauwens <[email protected]> wrote:
Dear,
thanks a lot for this email,
it seems that it is worthwhile for us to experiment with this, but I will forward this to James Burke for possible implementation
James, I think we should do this, what do you think?

Dear friends,
I have been looking in your site for any reference to Bitcoin for making a small donation.
As you probably know, Bitcoin (bitcoin.org) is a new kind of a P2P crypto-currency in which the general public can make donations, macro or micropayments in a secure and anonymous way usually without any transaction fee involved.
You can change Bitcoins for real money (eg: https://mtgox.com) or purchase services or goods in an increasing number of sites.
In order to receive donations you only have to publish one of your accounts as generated by the bitcoin client or any specialized bitcoin trader (eg: mybitcoin.com).
Currently some projects as www.i2p2.de, www.torrentservers.net and organizations like the EFF are accepting donations.
In my opinion this kind of decentralized solution without the need to trust any middlemen is much better than Paypal, Visa or Mastercard for security-minded people as most of your donors are.
If you are interested in pushing Bitcoin forward, do not hesitate to contact me if you have any doubt.
Yours, Cyclonite __ OpenPGP Email: https://privacybox.de/cyclonite.msg bitcoin donations: 16FVZweaaJLvhAy91oDugqaf84kXiDJ9PG
