If you are sure you want to donate, here's the current bitcoin address:

[1NoaWahAZJ38mkzJRNHWYnt7U19MkXtfUy](bitcoin:1NoaWahAZJ38mkzJRNHWYnt7U19MkXtfUy)

(Please make sure you're using SSL or 0net so that address isn't spoofed.)

Alternatively, i have [liberapay][lp] account set up as well.

If you want more info, keep reading.

## Why you shouldn't donate

There are a couple of posts i've made about why it might be not the best to
donate, in general or to me in particular:

- [1]({{ base_url }}{% post_url 2019-04-06-before-donating %})
- [2]({{ base_url }}{% post_url 2019-04-18-donations %})

If you can spare the time, i would ask you to read them before donating.

## You can try to count it

I'll be changing address(es) regularly (reusing one address is considered
harmful), but i'll be listing old ones on this page (and you can check git
history, if you want to be extra sure) so if you want, you can try to count what
others have donated publicly (i'm saying "try" because if you care about fiat,
you'll have to account for crypto price volatility).

Now that i have liberapay account, your calculations should also include that
(if you even trust them, :paranoia_smiley:)

## More privacy

If you are uncomfortable with the idea of donating to single bitcoin address for
some reason, i can send you a personal one. You can do it anonymously and i
won't be making any attempts to track you down. This also means that others will
not be able to verify the transactions, though i may occasionally post rough
amount of what i received this way.

## Alt-coins

I may add alt-coin options for donations, especially if someone requests
them. That said, if i don't like the coin enough, there's nothing to do about
that.

## Non-crypto

I'm not a fan of banking, but i've set up [liberapay][lp] account for those of
you who prefer that to crypto. In case you want to donate me useful things or
cash, you'll have to contact me for arrangements.

## Previous addresses

There were non yet, bah.
