TankieTube is holding its first ever fundraiser! stonks-up

If you’ve found the site of value, and have the means to do so, then please consider becoming a sustaining member through Liberapay! catgirl-happy It’s our preferred method.

https://liberapay.com/TankieTube/donate

We’ve set an ambitious goal of $150 per week, which would cover ~90% of the current server, bandwidth, and storage costs.

Liberapay currently doesn’t support one-time donations, but you can effectively make one by signing up and then cancelling your subscription after the first payment.

Other ways to make a one-time donation, for your convenience:

1) PayPal/Venmo/Credit/Debit [No anonymity]

Pros: Simple, fast, no account creation required

Cons: Your name and address is revealed; it’s not private and anonymous like Liberapay

2) Monero (XMR) [Ultimate OpSec]

Pros: Untraceable: Neither I nor Liberapay will know your identity. Can bypass sanctions.

Cons: Complicated

What is Monero (XMR)?

The majority of existing cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, have transparent blockchains. Transactions can be verified and/or traced by anyone in the world. This means that the sending and receiving addresses of these transactions could potentially be linked to real-world identities.

Monero is the only major cryptocurrency where every user is anonymous by default. The sender, receiver, and amount of every single transaction are hidden through the use of three important technologies: Stealth Addresses, Ring Signatures, and RingCT.

If you buy Monero on a public exchange such as Kraken, then transfer it to a private wallet you control before sending a payment.
