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: http://blockexplorer.com/address/1966U1pjj15tLxPXZ19U48c99EJDkdXeqb 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).
