Hello new goats & old - I am writing this as I know that the site owner is too proud to ebeg, well I am not.
Voat's BTC account 3NZvuAk3Csf1UP1KCmzN9dhiXTwvhTgr9k is empty totally empty not a cent in there.
You probably think that this website is kept alive with advertising, but I am afraid we have been cut off from all payment processors. As a result the store has been shut as it cannot accept cards & the advertisements on the side bar have remain unchanged for several years and are largely there for comedic value at this point.
As you can imagine hosting a website with tens of thousands of active users is costly, we managed to reduce the overheads earlier this year when some dedicated goats with more skill than I rewrote the code and moved the site to better hosting, but the costs are still there and we cannot allow the site owner to take the brunt of this.
The cabal have been after Voat for a very long time, many times we have barely hung on by a thread & now we need your help. Please help keep your new home alive as it wont survive without all of our assistance.
Godspeed - @lostandfound

I'm a Boomer. Listen up VOAT assholes under the age of 35. All Boomers aren't dumb when it comes to technology. A few of us were in on major developments of it in the 70s, 80s and 90s. Myself included. So your insults are stupid.
Not sure I trust the people behind Bitcoin. But I'll send you fuckers some coin because I believe in equitable energy exchanges. Money, no matter what kind = energy. Energy expended keeping this platform afloat is worth using Bitcoin.
So all you complainers who want to write checks or use Paypal cause it's easy, learn something new and give Bitcoin. Your new brain synapsis will love you for it!

Well that's easier said than done. Where does one start? Which coin do they accept? How to get started would be helpful, so, stop complaining? Be for real. You're doing just fine in that department.

I just started a few months ago. Coinbase is good because they guarentee your money if THEY are hacked, NOT IF YOU ARE. YouTube is the best place to start. Learn about Coinbase (one of many crypto currency exchanges), what a wallet is, how to create passwords, how to store them. Crypto currency is inevitable in my humble opinion. Just like digital banking was inevitable. Imagine the first generation to put away cash and mostly used checks, It was the boomers. I'm a gen-X and crossed from checks to online banking. This is similar, with more risks, no one will be able to help you get your money back if you copramized your passwords, or get hacked. Hope this helps. Good Luck.

Instead of enduring the constant insults reading through this post, head over to youtube and search for "how to use coinbase" it's not too hard, it allows easy transfer of USD, and it helps to get your acct. set up early for any required verification.
