Description

I would like to donate cryptocurrency to assist with Elementary's development. It would be nice if you included actual custodial wallet addresses on the [get-involved](https://elementary.io/get-involved) page. If you prefer a [non-custodial wallet](https://coinsutra.com/bitcoin-wallet/#Non-Custodial_Wallets), I suggest setting up a Coinbase account and look into setting up one of their [payment buttons](https://commerce.coinbase.com/docs/#payment-buttons) for donations.

Please remember that many people around the world do not have access to something like PayPal or the Visa/Mastercard network. And, increasingly, individuals are choosing to purposely opt out of such monopolistic platforms in favor of the global, open alternatives that are being offered by free software-based blockchain networks.

Thanks for your consideration!
