Flattr and Bitcoin Appreciation During May, June and July 2015 (50.89E)

August 12, 2015 · by Josef Ohlsson Collentine · in Inside Pirate Times

Our transparency and activity has been low over the summer. Thus this article will show our donations for the past three months. Our support comes from only a few people, thanks a lot for your continued support!

In total we received 26.78 Euro over the past months on Flattr. The largest flattr donation comes from someone supporting our transparency report a year ago, donating 5 Euros for that post. On bitcoin we received one donation in May for 0.1 bitcoins (24.11 Euro), THANKS. About 12 Euros have gone to our hosting and domain cost for the past three months.

Flattr is a microdonation service that allows you to give a small amount of money each month to content you would like to give support. It can be compared to a “Facebook super-like” with money attached. Users act like patrons of work and ”many small streams” adds up to something larger. The flattr button can be found at the bottom of each of our articles or you can support us directly on our flattr profile.

In May 2015 we had 22 things flattred by 8 unique users. In total we were flattred 41 times last month and received 7.49 Euro in support for our work.

In June 2015 we had 17 things flattred by 7 unique users. In total we were flattred 26 times last month and received 6.25 Euro in support for our work.

In July 2015 we had 19 things flattred by 9 unique users. In total we were flattred 28 times last month and received 13.04 Euro in support for our work.
