Comment (by aagbsn):

 I agree with Andrew that probably the sane way to accept BTC is to convert
 at donation time. I don't think anyone wants managing/trading BTC to
 detract from making more Tor.

 I spoke to Nick; one suggestion I made was that we ask an existing org
 (EFF, for example) if they would proxy the donations.

 If we choose to use a payment processor, it should not block access via
 Tor.

 I volunteer to work on https://www.torproject.org/donate/donate.html.en

 We should note that BTC are not anonymous, but some use scenarios might
 increase your privacy when using BTC.
