Integrate the bitcoinate button and get supported!

Bitcoinate

Bitcoinate helps you to get supported by providing a simple, appealing and secure solution to receive bitcoin Donations. Just copy the specified CSS and HTML into your website and you're ready to go!

1. Recognition The beautiful buttons are easy to recognize and your visitors instantly know that they can support you by donating bitcoins.

2. Simple to use Integrate the JavaScript link at the end of the website-body and paste the HTML to the places where you want the button to appear. Could it be easier?

3. Secure It's easy to make a mistake while copying a bitcoin address. To minimize the risk of copying a wrong address, the Bitcoinate button opens a prompt window which lets you easily copy the bitcoin address.

The Bitcoinate button is available in three different sizes:

• Small
• Medium
• Large

Goal

Bitcoinate is about enabling people to easily receive bitcoin donations to fund their projects or to get rewarded for their work. The core product is a button which can be included into any website and which displays a bitcoin address to donate to.

Advantages over existing solutions like Kickstarter or similar crowd funding platforms is that Bitcoinate is decentralized. That means that users don't have to pay fees and that they are in full control of the funding campaign. The long term goal is to establish bitcoins as the currency for crowd funding and thereby also accelerate the adoption of the digital currency.

Contribution

If you like the Idea of this website, please help me to spread the word and to establish Bitcoinate as a trusted and popular way to receive support for your work. Also consider a bitcoin donation (bitcoination) to support me and bitcoinate.org.

Thanks a lot!

Bitcoin address in popup should not be editable

When clicking on the Bitcoinate button, a helpful popup appears from where the address can be copied. However, the address is in an editable text field, which make accidental deletion (or worse: corruption) possible. It should not be editable (but still pre-selected for easy copying of course).
