Bitcoin is a distributed digital cash system. I will blog about this shortly, 
it's a fascinating system which has a number of issues. 

One interesting property is that bitcoin is transparent: You can see what comes 
in to it:

Obviously this is anti-anonymity! Bitcoin is not anonymous as-is but can be 
used in ways that are somewhat anonymous and it is likely that systems will be 
built on top of it that have strong anonymity. It can be accessed through Tor 
and there are people working on a Freenet transport.

It's not an especially efficient way to give us money at the moment however. If 
you have a large or regular donation we can arrange a bank wire. Paypal and 
google aren't especially efficient but are more so than bitcoin, at least in 
small quantity.

Also it is deflationary. I expect eventually there will declines, so we expect 
to avoid holding onto BTC long-term, although there is an argument to hold on 
until we have a moderate amount because withdrawing funds is significantly more 
efficient and safer in largish quantities (e.g. >$800).
