Pretty sure they are, considering they pay their people in bitcoin.

Yup, they are: https://archive.org/donate/

Let's see the famous bitcoiner generosity in action.

I just sent them a hundred bucks. With Paypal.  

Let's see everyone do the same.

That's a nice contribution! Found out they do take Bitcoin donations as speculated https://archive.org/donate/index.php.

MOAR specifically https://archive.org/donate/bitcoin.php

If anyone is going to donate I really hope it's in bitcoin. Any way of improving the perception of BTc as a legitimate means of wealth transfer (As opposed to speculative vehicle) has got to be good!

Why do sites like this always require a button for Bitcoin donations? It's much easier when you just post an address.
