For 2022, consider Brave browser.
Greetings everyone. 

Many of you have been asking about easy ways to support IRIXNET, and I'm currently working on some of them (Amazon Smile, adding cryptocurrency options, and maybe reinstating PayPal.me donations)

One that I've had for the past year or so is using the Brave Browser BAT donation. 

For those of you who are unaware Brave is a webkit based browser that was founded by ex-Mozilla members. It's a pretty quick little browser that has a nice feature: it blocks most ads on websites but gives you more targeted ads related to technology (optionally) and will pay you in cryptocurrency, called Basic Attention Token.

Some of you already support us in this capacity and I don't like asking for money but I have a lot of upcoming maintenance for the site planned and I also would eventually like to offer more developer bounties and possibly hire some devs on a more permanent basis. 

Because of all this all you have to do is install Brave, sign up for Brave rewards (available on mobile, desktop OSes like Windows, Linux and macOS) and when you get paid you can choose to donate a portion to us using Brave. That would mean a lot to us as it would be a relatively low effort thing that nobody would have to really shell out a bunch of money for. It also solves cross country issues with currency and such. 

If you don't want to do this this is okay. I understand some people are very emotionally attached to using Firefox or Safari or Chrome and that's okay. But for those of you who either already use Brave or who are open-minded to it, why not help us out a little?

Regardless I have a minor update planned to EZTrader, and after the New Year we're going to start talking about a sight redesign that's going to revolve around MyBB, and everyone is going that have the ability to say their thoughts.

Thank you to the person who donated 10BAT to the forum this past month. You guys are helping a lot. BAT is basically free money, so it does pay to contribute. Thank you again.
