I just updated the Small Technology Foundation funding page to use Ethereum instead of Nano as the cryptocurrency option since Ethereum is now proof-of-stake instead of the planet-destroying proof-of-work (hello, Bitcoin and co.) and because Nano is apparently a pain to obtain (had a few folks complain).
So if you want to donate anonymously, this should make it easier to do so.
Your donations do help. So thank you! :)

@aral Imo proof-of-work is the only mechanism that works for having consensus without trust.
@sebastian I couldn’t care less if the price is burning down the planet. Proof of work = proof of waste. It’s also a very bleak view of the world to think perfection is achieved when we no longer have to trust anyone. Finally, even that breaks down when you consider that it’s open to 51% attacks and the consolidation of mining power. That planet-destroying Bitcoin? Runs 100% on trust that the miners who could 51% the system won’t because it’s against their interests. 
@aral Hmm where did I say that the whole world needs a trustless view? When I look for local goods and services, I’m a trust guy cause the other one will have skin in the game. But on more global issues, I look for trustless solutions. Banks are a good example, where trust is used for misleading you. And they have 0 skin in the game. And don’t let me start about inflation and how central banks are stealing your wealth. Yes, fiat money is broken in many ways.
@aral And I agree that mining centralisation is a valid concern.
