I never want to buy bitcoin ever again.

Spent 90+ dollars just so I can get 50 worth of bitcoin just so I can blow it trying to give it here. Never hated crypto more than I do now.

This is the kind of shit that causes me hesitation. I've had the realization of how many years I've been on the site and how I've never thrown any financial support to it despite it being a thing the website needs, but thanks to TERRORISM most easy venues of chucking null a well earned twen'y bill to keep the lights on are cut off to us cryptomoney babbies like me. I'm really hesitant on any of the crypto currency stuff, if nothing other than some of the transaction fee bullshit (I don't follow cryptos super closely, but I read somewhere during Bitcoin's super-bubble that transaction fees were $20 alone, lord knows what they're at now.)

Is it possible to just like, buy a visa gift card and PM @Null the number & CID or something, or does not having the physical card create problems? Like it sucks to go that kind of route but with Cryptos being an evolving contingency I'm not sure I want to get into, I honestly don't know what other options are. What exactly happens with the Privacy.com page listed on the OP, is it the same kinda thing where a physical card gets mailed or would it send just a gift card account number / cid / barcode?

Having used Privacy.com myself to donate, it's honestly a great system to use, as it creates a 'virtual' card of the value of your choosing that can be set up in many different ways that doesn't reveal who you are to Null.

The only downside is that you need to either link your bank account to Privacy.com for funding(which I've had no issues with), or verify your identity to Privacy to have the option to fund with a credit or debit card.

It's no different than setting up a PayPal account, but less intrusive and corporate overlord-y.

Do you know what the verification process for debit/credit card use looks like offhand? Is it like email verification or do they need some state id / drivers license / social or something?

You got it with the latter part. State or Federal ID.

But keep in mind, there's nothing to trace back to you from supporting the farms, because that would entail going after privacy.com and getting them to release info. Which is not liable to happen.

Privacy.com
Privacy.com is a way to create gift cards online without revealing any of your own details to the merchant. If you want to send a gift card very easily, just sign up, plug in some funding source, and then create a "Merchant" account (not specific to any service) with a "Total" value of whatever you intend on donating.

Signing up on Uphold is easier than PayPal. It does require some form of ID but it's straight forward.

@Null

I would like to donate. Sorry if this comes across as dumb, but what do I do with the privacy.com thing? Is there some way to gift a card, how do I send it to you? With Uphold do you have an account or do I need to use it to buy BTC. You really just need a regular donation form tbh fam.

I really need to explain to people that I have terrorists who commit credit card fraud on any forms I host to try and shut down the site in the OP.

If you use Privacy.com, you can create a gift card. Just send me the card details and the amount on it.

Either Privacy.com or my bank are being a bunch of niggers and won't let me use the service. Sucks too, because I wanted to support the site. Not too fond of Bitcoin either, because last time I tried to do a Bitcoin transaction, it kept saying I didn't put in enough BTC to complete it.

You could buy a Visa gift card and pm @Null the info. It's pretty easy and banks don't usual freak out about gift cards

I've re-introduced the support link to the footer, but I'm not suddenly broke. This is just to help people who are curious find donation methods. I've gotten a lot of PMs about it the last month, and one of my friends has been demanding I've add crypto addresses to an easy to find place for ages.
