So this guy tips actual cash of 20$ to a delivery guy🛵 advising to invest in doge. Would you think doing the same with BCH would be well received?

Take a minute to consider donating to Wikipedia using BCH

Take a minute to consider donating to Wikipedia using BCH

TLDR:

Consider the title. Wikipedia is such a nice project and we should not only treasure, but help it remain free. While doing that, we can make use of the full potential of peer-to-peer money flowing accross bordes with minimal fees. Click HERE to go donate using crypto.

The Tale:

Here follow the little tale of my donation tonight:

I was just prompted by Wikipedia with a plea for donation, as they do periodically and decided to chip in.

The initial popup only offered me bank transfers, credit card, paypal and boletos (a Brazilian thing). Intrigued, I went to the donations page to investigate if crypto was accepted and discoved that the Wikimedia Foundation also accepts its through Bitpay.

https://donate.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ways_to_Give#Cryptocurrency

Of course, Bitpay asked me for a lot of personal data (name, address, etc), that I promptly filled with gibberish. KYC won't hold me from donating here. The for allowed.

After that it was only a matter of selecting a wallet and currency. Of course I used BCH because I want to donate a small amount this time. Click, QR Code scan, 2 seconds, festive sound.

Here is the transaction

TX: 42ab7cd6b103898bd8e40a8bddc6542e48617001dc1377392c13ef7881acf766

I hope many more can do that too. This is a generous comunity. Maybe we can all "tip" Wikipedia some BCH as we frequently see in the comments here.

If someone can find a way to suggest they receive BCH directly, we can avoid the BitPay KYC hassle in the future.

Thank you,

Bitcoin and the Bitcoin network are to money and finance as the internet is to communication

My wife and I met with our financial planner a few days ago. We've met with her annually for many years, but this time was a little different. We hadn't ever mentioned bitcoin before.

I first bought bitcoin in 2012 on Mt. Gox by sending two hundred dollars to some money service from a Walmart. The price went from $35 to $70 or so during the 9 days it took for the money to get routed to Mt. Gox. My wife didn't know anything about it. I had read the whitepaper and everything else I could find. And I was convinced. I started talking to her about bitcoin the next year and we wound up putting $20k into bitcoin in November and December 2013 when it was rising rapidly.

Like I said, I was sold on the technology of bitcoin. And also on the false security of fiat. But I was still aware that I'm no genius. And nobody knew for sure how things would shake out. So we sold some of our bitcoin along the way. First to get back half our investment - logic being that we had a lot of cushion if it crashed. Later we sold some to get back the rest of our initial investment. Everything after is house money. The last time we sold was to pay off our home equity loan.

It's been hodl since then.

We had to bring up our bitcoin holdings because we wanted to talk to her about retiring soon/now instead of in many years. It was clear that she didn't have much knowlege of bitcoin. To her credit she seemed genuinely curious and didn't seek to steer us from it. She was obviously aware of the increasing profile and "legitimacy" of bitcoin. She asked what my confidence level was for bitcoin in 5 years and I replied "one hundred percent." She had a few questions about the general technology (we had limited time after all), but I think what really got her attention was talking about the foundational technology. I summarized that with "Bitcoin and the Bitcoin network are to money and finance as the internet is to communication." I could see the lights go on at that point.

The technology is the "thing". Everything else is just riding on it. The technology isn't going away, but is only getting stronger. Embrace it.
