TipiT.to

Hello everybody,

TipiT has gotten a lot of attention recently. We are very glad about that. Most of this attention has been positive but a significant part of it has turned out to be fraudulent. These fraudulent attacks are taking its toll on the site to a degree that operation is not sustainable right now.

We will be disabling creation of new tips and tipjars until we figure out a way to solve this problem in a scalable fashion. Payment out remains possible but may be subject to delays to screen for fraud.

We apologize for the inconvenience and we thank you for your patience.

Thanks,
The TipiT Team

The recent attention by our tipjar for Wikileaks got a lot of interesting new tipjars signed up into the system:

ArrestBlair is the tipjar for the campaign at ArrestBlair.org to make a citizen’s arrest of Tony Blair for the alleged crimes against peace he has committed (see also: Removing Immunity).

There are several tipjars dedicated to donating to the Haiti relieve effort such as: DonateForHaiti.org and another for French Unicef.

A citizen journalist in Greece ‘teacherdude’ has lost his equipment and has setup a tipjar to raise money to replace his gear.

And we also got the Dutch life hacking community with stalwart Martijn Aslander on board with tipjars for various community sponsored initiatives.

And those are just a few of the tipjars. We’ll be building better functionality to explore the activity on the site in the future. In the mean time, keep tipping!
