I just don't get all the hate for cryptocurrencies around here. I benefit from using both Brave and Signal without being subjected to (scammy) adverts, and I just ignore the cryptocurrencies (you can too!!).. For people who are willing to take the risks with MobileCoin and the like, why not give them that choice?

That’s fine. But don’t ask me for donations on top. Sending donation dollars to fund developers pumping a coin is a strange use of resources.

Is it? Perhaps those developers will come up with a coin that isn't so scummy? Or come at it from a different direction which satisfies your worries.

If they want investment for that, then they can declare those plans. Otherwise it’s literally just wishful thinking.

What is wrong with using a regulated stablecoin for donations, instead of a unregulated volatile cryptocurrency like MobileCoin that with Signal can be used to privately finance lots of terrorists, extremists and conspiracy theorists chatting amongst themselves in a group chat?

Is that why Signal has not been banned for these uses yet?
