On May 3, Opensats disclosed receiving a $21 million contribution from Jack Dorsey’s #startsmall initiative. The announcement followed Edward Snowden’s remarks urging the integration of enhanced privacy features at the protocol level of Bitcoin. Dorsey reposted Snowden’s comment revealing the donation.

“This donation will top up our funds and operations budget, with $15,000,000 going to our General Fund, $5,000,000 to The Nostr Fund, and $1M to our operations budget,” Opensats declared on Friday. Essentially, Opensats awards grants to a diverse group of developers focused on Bitcoin and open-source projects that enhance the public’s access to Bitcoin infrastructure.

Reflecting on the contribution, Block founder Jack Dorsey remarked:

Bitcoin changes absolutely everything. I don’t think there is anything more important in my lifetime to work on.

Recently, Dorsey and his enterprises have been channeling significant efforts into developing the Bitcoin ecosystem. His company, Block, is currently engaged in producing a 3-nanometer semiconductor for an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) mining device. Just ten days prior, Block also unveiled a bitcoin (BTC) conversion feature for Square merchants.

Echoing Dorsey’s sentiment that Bitcoin is transformative, Opensats concurred, expressing strong agreement. The nonprofit stated it was “honored and humbled to receive such a generous donation.” The 501(c)(3) public charity also committed to “continually allocate the funds to high-impact projects and freedom tech infrastructure.”
