Quote From: Chad Whitacre Date: 2013/2/22 Subject: Re: gittip and bitcoin To: Chris Weber [...] Bitcoin is definitely on the radar, I was chatting with someone about it last night. Here are the two relevant tickets: "pay in with bitcoin" https://github.com/zetaweb/www.gittip.com/issues/14 "pay out with bitcoin" https://github.com/zetaweb/www.gittip.com/issues/310 You can catch up on our status there. Basically, there are some hurdles to overcome on each side, and we are looking for one or more vendors to partner with. chad ---- Chad Whitacre, Founder, Gittip https://www.gittip.com/ [...] On Fri, Feb 22, 2013, Chris Weber wrote: [...] > Is it already possible or planned to use bitcoin with the social structure of gittip?

I was calling for gittip to do bitcoins so long ago and was talking to the guy, he wasn't sold on them but I think it took that fraud case and laundering funds thru his service to see the light side ;) Which is sad that could have been all avoid.
