Does Noisebridge accept [http://bitcoin.org Bitcoin] donations? Someone created this page to indicate so.
{{headerbox}} '''Noisebridge accepts BitCoin donations.'''
{{boxend}}


However, that wiki user had not made any prior edits, and there is no mention of bitcoin elsewhere on the wiki or mailing list.
==Addresses==
There are two wallet addresses, one for Noisebridge and Noisetor. Both are linked to the Noisebridge Wells Fargo checking account via Coinbase.


Absent any word on the subject from the treasurer or board members, it is probably best to assume that Noisebridge does '''not''' (yet) accept donations via bitcoin and this page was an instance of somebody attempting to set us up the bomb.
