If you ever tried to donate to the torproject via torbrowser and bitcoins you 
probably

know that it does not work very well due to bitpay using Cloudflare. Cloudflare 
changes
the original HTTP POST to a HTTP GET -> 404 Error.

from BitPay Support Center (Apr 25, 9:33 AM):

Hello:


To answer your question:


"would you be willing to disable CAPTCHAs for Tor users to make donations work 
out of the box? "


This was my first request to BitPay management. The answer was no. I then asked 
if we could offer a payment button that worked through Cloudflare and the 
answer was "not at this time".


I am very sorry to bring you this news. This issue is also very important to me 
personally. I think people should be able to donate bitcoin to the Tor Project 
from the Tor Browser without jumping through hoops, but this is the state of 
things at the moment.


thanks for checking in.
