It's been a long, hard road to this point, but I'm pleased to announce that effective immediately, we are officially accepting subscriptions to SoylentNews. Subscription support is an important step in helping make SoylentNews successful as an independent entity that is fully funded by its users. In case you don't remember, here's the rundown of subscription features:
You can purchase a subscription on your user panel, or by clicking this link. Subscriptions are $20/year, and you can be reminded via email when that period is coming to an end via subscription settings. All payments are currently processed by PayPal, but we hope to add new merchant support in the future.
Here's hoping to seeing lots of stars in the near future!

Okay, I'm fine with that. Anyone want to buy me a sub in exchange for $20USD in bitcoin? I'll cover your paypall fees too.

I'll send a subscription your way for $20 in 'Itchy & Scratchy Dollars', a box of Space Food Sticks (preferably unopened) or an old Spirograph game if the green pen still works.

Ahh! I got my shiny star! You are a gentleman and a scholar, and I can only assume you must be damn good looking as well.
I don't know how to PM you, or if that is even possible, but please send me your bitcoin address, and I'll make good.

Snow,
I don't actually use bitcoins (hell, I don't even like real coins). Just make a $20 to a local animal charity and we'll call it even.

Well thank you very much!
I have donated $40 CAD to the Vancouver SPCA:
