Sending a payment only requires one click and receiving donations can be as simple as displaying a QR code.

This is a little update I had in my todo list once Lighthouse was released.
This pull request drops the "Crowdfunding is not yet easy to use" line and adds a link to Lighthouse for a usable proof of concept (and the Lighthouse website has plenty of useful documentation).
