ChangeTip

ChangeTip

ChangeTip (domain: changetip.com) was a Bitcoin “social tipping” / micropayments service founded in December 2013. It became known for enabling users to send small-value tips to other users through social platforms (notably including Twitter/X, Reddit, GitHub, and others) by invoking automated “bot”-style commands, while keeping most transfers off-chain on an internal ledger until withdrawal.

History and status

• 2014–2015: The service gained visibility as Bitcoin tipping went viral on social networks, and it expanded integrations (e.g., Disqus). (en.bitcoin.it)
• 2016: After an acqui-hire by Airbnb (Airbnb purchased the engineering team rather than continuing the product as-is), ChangeTip later announced it would shut down its tipping functionality. (coindesk.com)
• Current website state (as recently crawled): ChangeTip states that services have been discontinued and that it is withdrawal-only for accounts with remaining balances. (changetip.com)
