Title: Tor Servers - Only ±60 BTC donated so far!
Post by: joesmoe2012 on September 15, 2013, 06:49:03 PM
TorServers offers a way to donate bitcoins to help fund additional exit nodes. I was checking the address in blockchain and noticed only around 60 BTC have been donated so far.

I would think that the bitcoin community could do a little more to support Tor...

Here's a link to the page with bitcoin and litecoin donation addresses...though I highly recommend double checking the domain to make sure nothing funny is going on ...

I'm in no way affiliated, but do use Tor and think that's a pretty weak response from the bitcoin community.

Hi! Thanks for the endorsement. I'm also travelling to a lot of conferences around privacy (mostly within Europe), I'm happy to meet up.

One more comment: Yes, make sure you reach the right website! You should use HTTPS at all times: https://www.torservers.net/donate.html

The current certificate's SHA1 fingerprint is E8:8A:0F:3D:B6:80:A6:62:29:5F:6C:94:C2:33:E9:01:39:87:DD:DE. We will soon replace it with a wildcard certificate, also from StartSSL.
