Thank you for your followup with a clear explanation and the message you received.
(As a software test guy, I really appreciate the effort — I couldn't have asked for anything more!)
Unfortunately, I do not have any bitcoin to try it out myself. Neither do I have direct access to our Stripe (or PayPal) accounts.
So, I don't see anything more I can do on my end to help you subscribe using BitCoin.
That said, I will file a bug report in our bug tracker on GitHub and reference your comment to help document it.
Thank You!

No problem, you don't need bitcoins to get to this error message. Looking at the bug list I noticed a related (the same?) bug:
