Title: vote up! "Users can donate digital currency" - Ubuntu brainstorm Post by: osmosis on October 11, 2012, 05:57:43 PM Vote these up: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/30232/ http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/11bj36/idea_30232_users_can_donate_digital_currency/ ____ Solution #1: let users 'Pay with Bitcoin' and other donation methods In addition to the new 'Pay with PayPal' donation option that Ubuntu gives to users before the they download the desktop install, give users a choice to donate using other methods. One desirable option would be to donate using bitcoins. Ubuntu could use many of the free software packages out there to build their own bitcoin checkout, or a bitcoin payment service like bitpay.com could be integrated similar to how paypal is currently being used. Other examples would be donating using Google checkout or credit cards.

Though we may consider that not all linux users use Ubuntu, so maybe some linuxers are on Arch linux where they voted for "Arch software center" or Debian users on "Debian software center" to accept Bitcoin...
