Title: Low blow - Wikileaks Spreadshirt shop doesn't accept Bitcoin?
Post by: hazek on June 10, 2011, 01:13:05 PM
Well I just saw a link posted on Facebook to the Wikileaks Spreadshirt webshop and when I checked it out I saw they don't accept Bitcoins for payment.

Talk about a low blow: http://wikileaks.spreadshirt.com/shop/help/index/categoryId/8#jumpto38

low blow?  just because they haven't joined the bandwagon yet, doesn't mean it's an intentional slight.  I'd rather they were comfortable with it first, rather than rushing in without full understanding.

I think in time wikileaks will accept bitcoins. It takes time for people to adjust to new ideas, especially when they were not involved with helping form the idea.

Wouldn't say it's Wikileaks who doesn't accept Bitcoin, it's Spreadshirt whose site isn't yet configured to handle it.
