@puttitout Is it possible to get a donator tag if we donate in Bitcoin ? Wouldn't you need to provide a newly-generated receiving address to tie it to a user ?

I was thinking of donating 1 BTC to help with the costs.

Would Putt just cash 'em out on an exchange and apply to upkeep costs for Voat ?

I'm not sure what putt does with them, but at least one of my donor badges was from a bitcoin donation I sent a while back.

Voat is hosted on Azure with CloudFlare and I don't think either accepts bitcoin so it probably has to be cashed out.

Given recent craziness I wouldn't be surprised if donor badges take a while either way as I think it is a manual process.

I donated $50 via Fiat today and didn't get a new donor badge yet if you're wondering.

For the bitcoin donation I got a badge to, I posted to the transaction when I made it (was during a similar donation drive) and later pointed back at that post when I was bugging him for a badge.

you could also sign something with the senders address. users like you don't really need verification though.
