We don't do bitcoin topups right now, you think we should add that?

I am not a bitcoin user (because I have not find a use case for myself), but this might be an idea.

The problem for me is that if I provide my payment details, I make myself vulnerable to the person level censoring (as do other users of course). I do not think that this is where the WWW should be going.

So in principle anything that decouples my identity from the access to the content but lets me to pay for it might be fine.

If I provide you my payment details I could not be sure that you will not share my identity (even in a form of an unique id) (or start sharing in the future).
