I am not familiar with opencollective but patreon is something I have used already, but then we are in the crypto-space why not just let them donate anonymously into a Catalyst-School cryptowallet?

@whitevo can we use the swarm organisation for something like this or do we have to set up our own organisation?

@stephen-rowan I think we could put this in the discussions? Might also be a candidate for the next meeting agenda.

Theoretically, I can open a Crypto asset account just for Catalyst School. But how we could operate with that, is something I should ask Accountant, if that is something we consider as an option, then I would need clear questions to ask, so I don't spend too much time asking questions what does not lead us anywhere. I pay quite a buck for the accountant per hour :D
