Re: Hyperbola Project needs donations!
We have reactivated the "wire-transfers" and "Paypal" again in the wiki: https://wiki.hyperbola.info/doku.php?id … :donations
You can look at the concurrent state in this thread.

Hello,
1.
In the thread you've just started, it says 'Those will be listed either anonymous or with name in combination with the amount.'
Info should be added on what donors have to do for an anonymous listing with the donation amount or their donation (example: 'Sunday Apr 2, 2023 - anonymous donor - 9.05 CHF). I assume one has to explicitly ask for it in the wire transfers reference/purpose field.
2. In the respective hyperbola-wiki-site for donations, you've just linked to, it says
in the box
'CCP CHF: 87-112233-4
CCP EUR: 91-959544-0'
It's unclear for me, what that is, never encountered that before in a wire transfer.
Short general explanation what that is and when it's needed and how would be helpful.
More crucial: The box misses a reference/purpose field, which is definitely necessary.
'The wire transfer message has to include Hyperbola, otherwise it won't be a donation dedicated to Hyperbola. For questions such as additional account holder info (eg. residential address, email, etc), do not hesitate to contact us.'
This section seems to address how to deal with the reference/purpose field, but does so in a very vague, unclear way. If it indeed does so, a more clear way to put it in words would be better. Something, which explicitly uses and links 2 words: 1. Hyperbola 2. reference/purpose field.
Examples: Completion of box by additional row
• 'Reference: Hyperbola'
or
• 'Reference: Hyperbola, anonymous donor listing'
3.
Once again regarding this section
in the box
'CCP CHF: 87-112233-4
CCP EUR: 91-959544-0'
this time in combination with this section
'Our bank account accepts only wire transfers in Swiss Franc (CHF), Euros (EUR), Pound Sterling (GBP) and American Dollars (USD). '
Obviously, the section in the box is linked to currencies.
According to the cited section, donations can be done in 4 different currencies.
But in the box for just 2 of 4 currencies are details about that ominous CCP.
Shouldn't that section of the box be completed by adding 2 rows like, for example,
'CCP GBP: 12-345678-9
'CCP USD: 98-765432-1'
Or will people donating in GBP or USD never have to add such an info anywhere within their wire transfer, in contrast to people donating in CHF or EUR?
Hope I could help,
