For example, the non-profit published guidelines to help journalists and activists use the cryptocurrency more privately. The Problem with Other Crypto Payment Processors A lot of different companies and charities claim to accept Bitcoin and other crypto assets these days. However, they do so using a payment processor. The reason for this is that although a lot of companies would like to appear friendly to Bitcoin, they aren&#8217;t prepared to risk actually holding it. Payment processors appeared to make it easier for an individual company to look like they accept Bitcoin when in fact they receive fiat. The payment processor receives payments in crypto, exchanges it to fiat, and pays the fiat currency to the company providing the goods or services being paid for. Serving as a middleman between the transaction, the payment processor can actually censor the payment on whatever grounds it deems fit. It might sound like a theoretical &#8220;what if&#8221; and it would never happen. Yet, NewsBTC has previously reported on problems between the Hong Kong Free Press and the crypto payment processing service BitPay. The journalist group actually ditched the latter following delays in payments. Given that censorship can and does happen when working with a payment processor, it&#8217;s encouraging to see Human Rights Foundation exploring ways of using cryptocurrency that preserves the potentially revolutionary qualities of Bitcoin.
