Cloud Tip: Send Bitcoin chips with the feeling of treating someone to canned coffee (Episode 16)
CloudTip (Cloud Tip) is a service that allows website and blog operators to send tips in Bitcoin with gratitude and support.
(As a service,INDIEBOARD of IndieSquare Wallet has a donation button generation feature ahead, but it seems mainly used by core users)
A notable advantage of using Bitcoin is that tips can be sent starting from as low as 0.1 mBTC = 0.0001 BTC (roughly 6 yen if 1 BTC = 60,000 yen).
Depending on the idea, both the giver and the receiver might find various uses for it.
Japan has almost no tipping culture, so changing the approach might be good. Maybe self mini crowdfunding?
Tip transfers are possible even without membership, but if you register as a member, you can also give tips with a message. You can manage deposits and withdrawals from the My Page wallet on the member site.
Easy with a widget
There is a widget for receiving tips, so just paste it into your website or blog to complete the receptacle.
An interesting feature is that in My Page under “Edit Registered Data” → “Chip Icon Settings,” you can visualize the Bitcoin you give.
You can set up to eight icons.
It would be even more fun if you could upload your own original image.
For masochistic types, something like insults worth 100 yen, candles worth 200 yen, or a whip worth 300 yen...
This kind of soft approach is probably indispensable to spread Bitcoin culture.
Also, multilingual support would be nice.
When you click the tip button... it will display like this.
See for yourself how it turns out below ↓ (and tip… lol)

What about the fees?
In the FAQ,
Registration for this service and the use of My Page or My Wallet are free.
When withdrawing or sending tips, a reward to the Bitcoin network (transfer fee and recording fee) of 0.1 mBTC = 0.0001 BTC (about 6 yen) will be deducted. Also, when transferring received tips to My Wallet or an external wallet, a system usage fee (tip to the operator) of 10% of the transferred amount (amounts below 0.1 mBTC are rounded) plus a transfer fee of 0.1 mBTC will be deducted.
That was stated.
Campaign to receive 1 mBTC
Also, right now there is a campaign where both the inviter and the invitee receive 1 mBTC (about 60 yen if 1 BTC = 60,000 yen) in tips.
Register from hereand you and I will be a bit happier.
If you have never touched Bitcoin before, why not take this as a chance to experience this world on this side?
CloudTip also has community features and can be linked with Twitter and other services.
I hope this will help spread Bitcoin adoption.
