Yes. We use BTCPay Server and happy to have this mechanism. But we still have a challenge how to get donations from fiat (credit card) and usdt and swap them to #bitcoin in a safe/cheap way in the authoritarian states.
Most of individual donors (and activists in #Kazakhstan or #Turkey whom we support have only them) they still need to understand how to use bitcoin and prefer donate in fiat.
You almost can’t do physically p2p bitcoin transactions - the regime of Kazakhstan is going after such people.
It takes 3-5 minutes to block a financial provider who is exchanges fiat to btc or specific account receiving donations (in #Stripe), associated with fundraising campaigns of activists or opposition.
If you have ideas - let me know. Happy to learn.
