Whether or not we need the money, I hate the idea of letting Google keep what we’ve earned. The balance is roughly $500, which to me is a big enough number to be irritated about. I mean, even if UP is financially stable right now, there are infinite people/entities who need that $500 more than Google does.

Not sure what you mean by dropping them.

Not sure I do, either, honestly. Are we hosting ads? Can we stop?

I don’t actually know the answer to these questions. @zikzak?

Y’all can’t figure out if we’re still running ads yourselves?

No, I dropped them as soon as it became clear that we weren’t going to be paid.

What’s is the reason why the funds can’t be accessed? Even if it is not something that is used now, it might be a good idea to figure out how to use it should it become necessary in the future. Of course, if it’s not something you just can’t be arsed up to deal with, that’s understandable as well.

@spidercrab. did u get my pay pal?

Yes, you should have a private message from me from 4 days ago.

just wanted to remind you, there’s some money in this for unstuck if you setup the site with a BAT wallet.

Ok, I think I need some help from @jmakin here. In order to set up the site to receive BAT tokens, I need to have access to the actual website, which I do not. @jmakin, can you make either of these work?

Or do I need to work with @simplicitus, since he’s the one who has the domain registered?

looks like either method should work.

Can you tell me in as much detail as you can what you need? Maybe some documentation? I have access to the domain and can probably get what you need.

As background, what I’m doing is verifying I/we actually run unstuckpolitics. The basicattentiontoken.org site is asking me to download a verification file (brave-rewards-verification.txt) and upload that verification file to the ‘.well-known’ folder on the domain (which has to be created if it’s not there). Once that file is added, I’ve got to click a link back at basicattentiontoken.org to verify it.

So I think the only question is how you want me to transfer this file to you. Then you just need to tell me when it’s uploaded to the domain.

What’s the editing the dns records method?

This is the text in the second box:

brave-ledger-verification=deccecf56a8286f6088aca20c11715aaf1a97b58f899ebb52071dff04cb62f3c

Believe it or not that’s the easier method here, I think. I can add the record.

I added the record - try to verify in the next hour, and if it fails after an hour or two, I messed up. I added the TXT record to the root domain. That should be what it wants.

I just got an email saying I am now a verified Brave Rewards creator. So I think that means there’s nothing else to do.

@VoteForSocialists, I think this means you can now direct some tokens our way? I probably won’t get around to setting up a crypto wallet to attach for a while, since I am crushed by work and family stuff right now, but I would expect that the account can receive tokens before having the wallet set up.

Exciting times - Unstuck Politics is getting into the crypto game.

i think it’s further along now, but that last step is probably required.
