Title: Wikipedia needs help! Perhaps they should accept donations in BTC?!?
Post by: Dirt Rider on November 21, 2011, 01:30:00 AM
Perhaps we can somehow convince Jimmy Wales to start accepting Bitcoin!?!  I'd donate some BTC in a second.  Any thoughts?

Yes. It's been addressed, and they said thanks, but no thanks. But I'm working on something that could change their mind.

I agree, if they don't want us now, no point in "selling" them. BTC's either need to go big or go home, because "selling" them to any big corporation isn't going to help. They know what it is, believe me... No need to "explain" anything to Wikipedia...
