Hi Juergen, Right now we're only allowing one currency on our site, so bitcoins as a currency will not be an option for a while. If you can recommend us any market where people could use their bitcoins to send Euros to Flattr we'd be happy to have a look at it as a payment option. Cheers - Marie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I'm sure you can recommend me such a service..... tia juergen PS if flattr accepts Bitcoins that would be awesome Title: Re: hello guys i asked flattr.com when will they accept Bitcoins? and this is their Post by: PLATO on December 06, 2011, 10:43:23 AM note that youtipit.org does the same thing as flattr with bitcoins

Bit-pay only operate in the US currently as far as I am aware - ie anyone accepting payments has to have an office in the US and accept dollars. Title: Re: hello guys i asked flattr.com when will they accept Bitcoins? and this is their Post by: nmat on December 06, 2011, 12:10:34 PM I think they are talking about a service that allows you to charge your account with bitcoins and then use it to make payments in Eur/USD. I don't know if there is something like that... Maybe OKPay?

Why not just post a bitcoin address so the recipient gets every bit of money (pun intentional) that is sent?

of course this would be huge for bitcoin but it is the first step later they will accept bitcoin direct.... and than you can send it direct to the artist ,blogger younameit Title: Re: hello guys i asked flattr.com when will they accept Bitcoins? and this is their Post by: Yankee (BitInstant) on December 06, 2011, 09:12:24 PM We met one of the executives of Flattr at the Bitcoin session in OVC11 a few months ago.
There were some discussions about it, but in the end it came down to a legal issue. The guys who founded Flattr are also the founders of The Pirate Bay, and everyone knows what legal shit TPB had to go thru. They dont wanna get involved in anything that would even get them negative legal attention, at least not until a precedent is set.
