Re: [tor-relays] Discuss. Why not split donations to Tor relay owners?



Hi,

Nobody audited the code of 'reiya' project and there is currently no
concrete evidence to confirm that the funds deposited in that Monero
wallet will indeed be redirected to the relays. Therefore, we strongly
recommend not using that project.

Regarding funding Tor relays, please follow the process described in the
meta-proposal and submit your proposal to the relay operators
community:

https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/community/policies/-/blob/master/001-community-relay-operator-process.md?ref_type=heads

cheers,
Gus
