View Full Version : Donation mod that accepts bitcoins

Since bitcoins (http://www.bitcoin.org) are perfect for micro payments (almost nil transaction cost) they are perfect for helping a forum owner monetize his site. While a few users are willing to make $20+ donations through PayPal, enabling bitcoin donations opens up the world of $0.05 and $0.10 donations or even rewarding of posters by other users.
*Note, bitcoin.org is not related to bitcoin.com. It's bitcoin.org I'm talking about.

Search to and will pay for it.
I would also pay for something like this which lets some kind of bitcoin integration.
Bitcoin is really amazing for forums users as it allows micro donations. This may save forums that cannot survive with adwords anymore. You can accept small donations from users.

What exactly are you guys looking for? What features do you need more then just adding a Donate button that uses bitcoin? Give me some ideas and I may make this.

Twilkey just need to code a API you can take help from http://bitcoin.org/en/development i think they can provide API . then convert it for vBulletin . it will work fine i will also pay ... its same as https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=256478 . if API Module is ready we can use if for donation also :)
there is a multidonation script in progress at vbsupport.org (Russian only) that may be need some financial support.

Did anything ever come of this? I'm still looking for a bitcoin donation plugin and even a bitcoin forum subscription plugin. Thanks!

Instead of bumping a thread, since you got no response, it is probably due to the fact that no one wants to do this as a unpaid mod. You may have more luck posting in the Paid request forum, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=30

No thanks. Something free will be available eventually, it's just a matter of time.

Doubtfully, but it is possible.
I was looking in to that a little because someone else requested it a while back in a different thread. But I can't promise anything because the last time I told someone I'd do a simple mod I never managed get around to it.
BTW, the other person who requested it paid someone to do it, so if you can find that thread maybe he'll sell you a copy cheap. ETA: Oh, that other one was actually a paid request, here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=303672

Hopefully now that Google is working on something for bitcoin, getting something streamlined will appear sooner or later or at lease provide more options than anything currently available: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1vvfxz/google_confirms_their_payments_team_is_working_to/
Thanks for the alternative advice as well. I think since paypal demands so many fees from donations/subscriptions that bitcoin is the wisest and best solution for admins going forward, especially for purposes of anonymity for more underground/warez boards as well.
