Could you not do BTC to XMR then to w.e else after that? And if youre donating you should do XMR to BTC.

Another problem with BTC is the extremely high transfer costs. Donating XMR directly makes smaller donations viable, while BTC is only attractive for large donors.

Not exactly. Lightning makes it super cheap and instant.

Interesting. I thought Lightning was a fork like BTC Cash, not a feature compatible with BTC itself.

On another note I just noticed it's gotten harder to buy Monero in the EU, at least Kraken no longer offers them (damned money laundering, sadly the laws are necessary). Luckily thanks to legalization I no longer use it.
