EFF stops accepting Bitcoins

3 JoshuaZ 21 June 2011 03:57PM

The EFF has stopped accepting Bitcoins primarily out of concern with the possible legal issues. I presume that the EFF has a better understanding of any possible legal risks than organizations like the SIAI. It seems that the SIAI should probably at least for now put a hold on accepting bitcoin donations until these issues are resolved.
