Hotel not listed on coinmap.org

I have added my business (a hotel) to OpenStreetMap some time ago in order to also have it listed at http://coinmap.org/ .

My hotel is "Trafford Sky Homes" in Leipzig, Germany. I added the key "payment:bitcoin" with value "yes" but for some reason it won´t be listed in coinmap.org

Hi, I added a link to your hotel. Please check it's the right one and correct it if necessary.

One Answer:

All we can tell you is:

"pament:bitcoin=yes" is indeed the right way to indicate that a place accepts payment in Bitcoins (see Bitcoin on the OSM wiki for details)
The linked hotel is tagged like that.

coinmap.org is not part of the OSM project, so we cannot tell you why they do or do not show a given place - you will have to ask them about that.

One guess: It seems you only added that tag on 2017-01-20, about a month ago. Most projects that use OSM data only fetch fresh data with some delay, so maybe the data has not yet been updated.
