The forum asking for an email is the most invasive thing that we ask (when you look at client, mirrors, repo, website) so we don’t want to escalate this any more.\n\nI understand and very appreciate this position.\n\nI would suggest to accept small registration fees paid in Bitcoin over Lightning.\nBecause this would allow to handle payments while respecting privacy and the FLOSS philosophy.\n\n**Privacy**\n\nIf payment’s are made with Lightning, the receiver (in this case F-Droid and maybe its payment provider) don’t know which address has send the payment. This is not only pseudonymous (like On Chain payments) but totally anonymous for the sender.\n\n**Free and Open Source**\n\nNeither the user nor F-Droid would be forced to interact with proprietary software to make the payment’s.\nUser’s could chose from a variety of Free Software wallets and F-Droid could either self host it, or use a Free software based payment provider like Coinos which provides the backend and exposes the API’s to request and confirm payments.",
