I'm not really comfortable with this. Not because I don't trust madduck,
but because if the Project is in the process of reaching a decision
about wheter to accept Bitcoins or not, we should not circumvent that.
After all DebConf is part of Debian.

This can be frustrating because the Project sometimes takes some time to
reach a decision, but it's IMO the right way to go.

OTOH debian.ch has accepted donations in Bitcoin via BitPay in the past.
Maybe that's an option. Philipp Hug should know more about this.
