MyNymBox, Njal.la, NiceVPS, Porkbun, OrangeWebsite, IncogNet and NameCheap all don't support the .coop TLD. ☹️ Looks like there's nobody that I can pay directly with BTC that also can handle a .coop registration.

If we want bitcoin to be a viable option for "the people", this is a gap that needs to be filled.

Domain names are a pillar of self-sovereignty, and even if you prefer corporations as a legal structure, I think we can pretty much all agree cooperatives should be included.

If that goes well, I'll also try getting a few other groups I'm a part of to move over along with a couple personal domains. I'd be happy to have all the domains I help manage be under one roof and with a privacy-respecting company like yourself.
