Accept other cryptos as donation

Feature Proposal

Hello.
It is good that DC accepts crypto donations. But it’s not good that we accept only Bitcoin. Bitcoin has a major problem and that’s the fees. For a small donation of 10 USD, you might need to pay 0.5 to 1.0 USD.

Other coins like Litecoin, Monero and Bitcoin Cash have much lower fees. In my experience with Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash, for a 10 USD transaction, the fee is usually less than 1 cent.

in ArcaneChat - Private chats for the family I allow donating in several cryptos using a service that helps with that while I only need to have a single wallet, maybe Delta Chat page could use something like that

We’ll probably get an XMR address and other donation options sooner or later.
There are some bureaucracy and tax questions before we’ll do that.

Maybe a service that converts it to fiat directly, like adb suggested, could make the bureaucracy easier, though it would add dependency on another entity and extra fees per transaction (also min transaction amount on nowpayments is like 2 USD).
