They started accepting bitcoin donations in 2014, and then got lots of public ridicule for the idea in late 2021, and then stopped in 2022 due to environmental concerns.
There were signs that cryptocurrencies were inherently troublesome from the very beginning, but regardless, accepting bitcoin donations in 2014-2019 isn't exactly the same as participating in the NFT craze of 2021.
I make it a point to donate exclusively in bitcoin because I see digital cash as a fundamental human right and want to see more adoption[1]. If mozilla gives up on money because of a vocal minority, then it's their loss. A lot of other more reputable charities still accept it :D
[1]: Willing to switch to more environmentally friendly alternatives as long as they have the same properties as blockchain cryptocurrencies. Until then, I'll continue donating in crypto.
