We DistributeCrowdBucks is a new payment system for the Fediverse
A new, open source, self-hostable fundraising system for the Fediverse has been released. The project is very young, but there's a huge amount of promise.

Daniel V.@n_dimension @reiver @news I’m actually not seeing where it says crypto, can you tell me where you saw that at?
In the code base there’s references to Stripe and such, and the article talks about adding other providers later, but I didn’t notice crypto mentioned anywhere. But I could have just totally missed it
@reiver ⊼ (Charles) 
I didn't didn't say that word anywhere. Nor did the article.
Right now it just supports Stripe.
We will add more payment providers, too.
From the article "It builds on previous efforts others have tried...others = Monero"
Web monetisation (W3C) => It's currency-agnostic and designed to work with both traditional and digital payment systems.
Open Payments is designed to be an abstraction layer that can issue payment instructions between transacting parties atop *any payment method*, (ATM Interledger (ILP) only)
Stripe's broader #crypto strategy:
They're going all-in on crypto infrastructure - they acquired stablecoin platform Bridge for $1.1 billion and crypto wallet startup Privy Fintech giant Stripe developing blockchain dubbed ‘Tempo’ with crypto VC Paradigm | Fortune Crypto.
TLDR; Includes crypto support.
Someone can purchase crypto with cash, visa, and mastercard.
I don't want to put words in your mouth, but — wouldn't the argument posted suggest that ANYTHING that supports cash, visa, and mastercard automagically includes support for crypto?
Or did I misunderstand you?
...
As, I don't see why it matters if Stripe is supporting stablecoins or not, as to whether they are used to accept credit card payments and payout people in USD, CAD, etc.
