Yeah Let's Do That

"Yeah Let's Do That" (YLDT) is a self-hosted crowd-funding tool.

DO NOT USE THIS! This is early alpha stage. Really, I mean it. You could loose all your money!

http://github.com/uwekamper/yeahletsdothat/

Payment Plugins

YLDT supports a number of different payment methods.

Currently supported methods:

  • Braintree payments (credit cards, Paypal, Bitcoin)
  • Cash payments (for face-to-face meetings with manual processing)

Planned:

  • Bitcoin
  • DogeCoin

Configuration of the Bitcoin daemon (bitcoin.conf)

The Bitcoin payment plugin is defunct at the moment. This is just for reference.

Your bitcoind/bitcoin-qt configuration file should look like this.

testnet=1
server=1
rpcuser=bitcoinrpc
rpcpassword=*yourpassword*

How Payments Are Processed

The following state graph shows the states which a transaction can go through.

When a new transaction is created, it is immediately in the "pledged" state. In every step the transaction can go into the "aborted" state – either trough user interaction or a failing payment.
