Does Godot accept cryptocurrency donations?

Edit: After seeing the bandwagon, dogpiling reaction from the community for simply trying to donate, I wont bother donating to this project even if they support cryptocurrencies.

Good job, assholes.

No, they do not. All supported donation methods are available at https://fund.godotengine.org
- That is unfortunate.
  Hopefully they decide to support cryptocurrencies in the future so I can donate to them.
  
  It's possible to transfer funds out of crypto. As long as you aren't on the wrong end of the constant rug pulls. However your phrasing is oddly passive aggressive.
  If you want to donate. Donate. If them not wanting to deal with the hassle of, or something with the horrible reputation of crypto. Is excuse for you not to. You likely never wanted to. 🤷
  
  Out of curiosity, why are you limiting yourself to donations only of crypto, and not just crypto in general but only specifically the few you chose to use?
  There is no real privacy benefit using crypto here, or any risk in donating with more commonly used payment methods.
No-where in the Community Sidebar is it stated or implied that the Godot project is officially tied to this community or its members in any way, so your edit is petty and stupid, even though I agree downvotes you've recieved suck. Calling your arguments with a total of three commenters "dog-piling" or a "bandwagon" is pretty outlandish as well.
Yeah, welcome to Lemmy. Personally, I believe that any donation matters. And if you wish to use crypto currency for that it's a completely legitimate thing to ask for. They couldn't have the option and that's totally their choice 🤷🏻‍♂️
However, I see no harm in asking for it politely.
Neat you like an engine but not people in a small community so you won't donate. Sure are stupid
- Hey man, when you're older you'll realize why it's a good idea to make it as easy as possible for people to give you their money.
  I'm just gonna ignore you until that happens.
  
  Oh no not an asshole ignoring me!
