[ANNOUNCE] Bitcoin Fundraiser Widgets

[ThomasV]

You are organizing a fundraiser, and you would like to display something more appealing than a raw bitcoin address?

Here is a set of fundraiser widgets (counters, progress bars) that can be included in your web page:  http://ecdsa.org/widgets

Widgets can be included as embedded HTML, images or through javascript calls.

For example, here is the amount of bitcoins donated to Occupy Wall Street (http://feedtheprotest.com/node/223) :

(1EUqkFmL9HNpBRvbWRAqCiUjepaR7Vbryp)


Note: this is different from the #operationbitcoin fundraiser (see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=45943.0 ), which has raised the following amount:

(18E7852e1q3UFHjyNwddzydJ4uv7ZY2t7b)

[1715631015]

1715631015

[1715631015]

1715631015

edit:please note that the syntax for counters has changed. the new syntax is:

hi, like your idea.
on related note: do you plan support multiple btc addresses in future versions?
to avoid a possible privacy attacks by pooling donations to a single address it is a good practice to use new address for each transaction. a widget should be able to sum funds for all known addresses without the need to reuse them.

interesting application could be a deterministic wallet, using a secret (string, like password) to generate receiving addresses only on the server side while allowing to generate private keys of those addresses on a secure client.
the transaction records are in the blockchain anyway. no need to store them on server and bother with protection.

or (alternative) pool receiving addresses uploaded from fund raiser.
thanks for reading
