Sometime recently, something in our setup (or in the bitpay API) changed and left us unable to receive notifications of bitcoin payments. The bad news is the payments still went through but the subscriptions were not rewarded on SoylentNews. We realized the error and credited the accounts (there were only 4 such cases) giving extra subscription time to make up for the error.
Bitcoin subscriptions are temporarily disabled until we can work out exactly what happened and avoid it in the future.
Thank you, and our apologies for any inconvenience.

I was one of the four - you guys took care of everything fast, and I thank you!
Sorry to hear bitcoin payments are suspended - it's great being able to shoot a bit of "instant" cash someone's way. But it's not so instant if your payment processor craps out on you.

No problem. We'll get it resolved and back in action soon.

I remember I granted you a freebie two week subscription :)
I'm happy to see you followed up with a real one!

My plan is to re-up some day, too. I hope to do my part (at least some of it) to keep this place alive and kicking.
(For all the blather I post, I figure it's the least I can do!)
