Sorry for the spoilers but this is literally what they start doing towards the end of Season 1 of True Detective. Amazing season and definitely worth a watch as it deals with EXACTLY the type of investigation we're focusing on here.

Know of any private investigators accepting bitcoin? Would aid the anonymity and money handling issue,

No, but I'm sure they're out there.

Good idea in theory, not sure how well it would play out. I figure any attempt at professional investigation would get smashed by the media but it's worth a shot.

You want to structure it so that there really isn't a structure. You don't want leadership or any focal point for them to attack.

The thing is, you'd need some organizational structure to manage the funds you'd take it through crowd sourcing.

Everything else could be coordinated anonymously in the forums as a decentralized group.

People need to start making threads like,

" 900$ required to investigate XYZ"

And then links to a crowd sourcing site.

Only give money to crowd sourcing campaigns linked to accounts/people/groups you trust.

This would be under the radar and would be spread out into different cells. It would be impossible to stop.

The only thing you'd need is a central hub to process the funds. You'd need some organizational structure for that I suppose, but it could still be decentralized.
