[Mt.Gox_Alex]

Helping the Bitcoin Foundation is now as easy as logging into your Mt.Gox account.

Mt.Gox is, like many other Bitcoin professionals and enthusiasts, a strong supporter of the Bitcoin Foundation. This is why, today, we would like to announce that we have decided to make everyone’s life easier, when it comes to donation to the Foundation, by implementing a new dedicated Withdrawal method, uniquely designed for this organization!

To donate, simply login to your Mt.Gox account, select “FUNDING OPTIONS” then “Withdraw Funds” and finally choose “Bitcoin Foundation” in the withdraw method's drop-down.

Please remember that supporting the Bitcoin Foundation is supporting Bitcoin. Whatever you can donate will be, of course, greatly appreciated!

Finally note that while Mt.Gox is a member of the Bitcoin Foundation, all donations given to the Foundation via our interface will go directly and in its totality to the foundation.

How about ignoring the Foundation, how easy is that?

(Completely unrelated: when will you consider making everyone's life easier by...you know...making it easier to withdraw from MtGox?)

I wonder what the actual motivation is.

Please remember that supporting the Bitcoin Foundation is supporting Bitcoin MtGox's PR fund.

Fixed that one for you.

So I had ~1 bitcoin in my mt gox's account and decided to donate. But bam:

Your account is currently pending review, please visit https://mtgox.com/forms/verification

LOL. The hassle of the verification is hardly worth 1btc atm.. May be in the future.

Supporting Bitcoin Foundation =/= Supporting Bitcoin

Supporting Bitcoin Foundation = Paying Gavin Andresen's Salary while centralizing bitcoin development to a select few

Educating people on bitcoin yourself without a foundation = Supporting bitcoin
