Hello all, I've been a member of the forums for almost 3 years now and donated a couple times when you could do it through PayPal.  Well I'm unable to use bitcoin because the wife says so and I have to abide.  Because of this I have been locked out of alot of the sections since December or January.  I've been using the same sy vendor the whole time I've been on the forum and everything continues to go well but it is alittle unsettling not being able to read and give feedback on the vendors.  I guess my question is will there ever be another way to donate to the forums other then bitcoin?  It would ultimately be great if there was another option.

 
@Mike1982, what a good husband you are, I love that you abide and respect your wife. I understand because I was hacked and I bought bitcoins that mysteriously disappeared from my electrum wallet. So I also long for the days of paypal, but Im sure because of the anonymity of it @Admin is trying to protect us! Have you ever thought of getting a prefilled visa or other credit card and trying that way. Cant you buy bitcoin cards, I know im so out of the loop, I actually had someone do it for me because after I was hacked I will never put a credit card on any device I use except prepaid cards I get filled. Do you think the wife would let you do that? I know it’s by far the safest thing for me! I had to get three credit cards from my bank because of fraudulent activity from the UK of all places! I wont even activate the last one! As @wait4it told me, not in same words, but how we long for the naive innocence wevused to have, now hackers are so above the game. All these advancements in technology are great, but theres a down side to it as well! Wishing you the best check back in and see if she will let you try that! Good luck gentleman!

Admin posted on an earlier thread that his Paypal was shut down over some wise guys who signed up as sponsors  to get access to vendors,( most likely SY), and than did Paypal chargebacks. PP shut him down...I can relate with chargebacks, as I use to be a Powerseller on Flea-Bay for years. I agree though...Most of the world is not setup for Bitcoin, and to jump through the hoops just to make a small contribution takes effort. In the world of "swipe and pay" that we live in, convenience is almost more important than the money that is spent.  I know for a fact that this site would Quadruple it's financial support, if there were an easier way to pay. I understand anonymity, but being anonymous as an admin of this board is not a crime. However, there could be other reasons admin prefers to remain anonymous....It doesn't seem at this point, that there is an easy solution.

 
Thank you @Heavenlee for the suggestions, I may try to get my wife on board with that.  It's hard enough to get her to understand why I need to order this way to begin with.  She is just of the mindset that bitcoin is shady and I cant say I blame her to be honest.  @yellowbelly I can completely understand the chargeback stuff as well because I have sold and continue to sell on Ebay and have lost alot of money from scammers. I do understand why the administrators of this forum are doing what they are doing. And I know that their PayPal account got shut down because of chargeback stuff. I just really wish there was some sort of alternative other than Bitcoin. I don't know how hard it would be but even if I could just send somebody a Western Union payment or something like that it would be great. It's not just so I can get access to certain parts of the form I do really appreciate this website and this forum and the people in it and I want to support the cause. Basically finding the site has been a lifesaver for me. And it's getting harder and harder to get doctors to give us what we need. A lady I work with, her son broke his collarbone two weeks ago and they gave him Tylenol for the pain.

I agree Mike. Bitcoin is definitely not very convenient for 99% of the world. I'm sure Admin has his reasons though, for it being the only acceptable payment. The government crackdown is getting ridiculous!  I have a local contact that I get dros from, and I just went to grab them today. The script he normally gets got cut in half and now he has to pick them up twice a month. So I received half of what I prepaid for. Fortunately the guy I get them from is a friend, and will not screw me, but it just goes to show how bad everything is getting, even when it comes to valid scripts. Thanks Trump!! 

 
I’m making a screenshotted, step-by-step guide for this BTC procedure. Not sure how to submit it here-tried to notify mods @2earlsand @PTFCbut haven’t heard back.

Maybe I’ll just finish making it and save it in several formats. When I learn how to send it here to post, I’ll do so.

We need widespread Monero adoption, and Monero credit cards, and more people using those square things for their mobile devices. But mostly the first things. 100% private transactions is what the world needs for EVERYTHING and for extreme progress to happen. But I think it will, things have been improving and picking up at a rapid rate, and with the way curves work things should be changing drastically in our lifetimes.

  3. N @ nickelz34: I am an opal sponsor where do I find the password for the pass protected section ?
  4. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: whereas if I use fiat to buy something the money is green anyway. Monero does this really well. Anyway rant over, you can DM me if you'd like to talk more about cryptos.
  5. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: I don't really think that people understand the whole point of cryptos in the first place anymore. BTC just won't be adopted by governments because the transactions are too public and what's worse, money that is freshly minted is better than money that has been used. Like if my btc was used for something that was illegal does that mean the money is "poisoned"?
  6. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: @xenxra Yeah, Like I said I've never really been that fond of btc, it isn't used as a currency, just as a place for people to invest money in, even though the whole purpose of btc was to be a currency. If it doesn't fulfill that role, what does? Monero certainly does.
  7. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: What's good guys! Just got back home. Missing football today :( Fuck the probowl lol
  8. shoutback @ shoutback: Volkanovski is the greatest featherweight of all time. Better than Aldo or Holloway at their peaks.
  9. S @ sawganaut: I bet btc bottom is in
  10. D @ dragnetopher: No, I don’t think it. I know it. And it’s not just bitcoin, it’s all crypto. And like I said, they’re selling to acquire liquidity for when countries truly start utilizing what’s been set in place. The USD is under controlled demolition as we speak. This is all part of it.
  11. xenxra @ xenxra: there is no shortage of whales - https://tikolu.net/i/fmnru.png
  12. xenxra @ xenxra: tokenisation is not a plan its already been happening for months, ive been trading this whole move on silver through ethereum
  13. xenxra @ xenxra: you think whales are dumping bitcoin because of something everyone has known about for like 4 years? what does bitcoin liquidity have to do with trading tokenized assets? they don't have pooled liquidity.
  14. D @ dragnetopher: Whales are tanking BTC due to the fact that the future is coming now, literally. There’s a plan to tokenize every single asset possible. This is whales dumping so they can have liquidity for the Springtime.
  15. xenxra @ xenxra: @Gulp2788 this is a terrible spot to buy bitcoin haphazardly because it's going down another $5k -$7k if 80,000 doesn't hold. i told everyone to get the fuck out of bitcoin at $103k. it's better to buy late when the bottom is more certain than throw darts and act like the opposite outcome was unavoidable just because it went down "a lot" and everyone seems to be "freaking out". wait for it to get back over 85k
  16. xenxra @ xenxra: @aarons the last time i said monero was on discount in here it went up 5x in 3 months
  17. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: good opportunity to buy more btc if you are gonna do so imo, me I'm buying the btc to switch into better currencies
  18. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: bah politics, no need to worry BTC is a honeypot anyway
  19. fishladder @ fishladder: down since trump
  20. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: btc has been hovering around 90k for a year everyone is freaking out tbh I am laughing
