Very grateful to @HRF. It's because of their support that this year I've been able to do more work researching and quantifying some of the humanitarian benefits of Bitcoin.
Thanks to them, this year I've been able to
- work alongside @dari_org to put together a first ever quantification of the number of refugees helped by Bitcoin (329,000 of the world's most vulnerable).

- Interview John Perkins about how Bitcoin can overcome monetary colonialism. John and I have become good friends, and last time we chatted we talked about the best exchanges to buy bitcoin on!

- appear on a couple of podcasts talking about how fiat currency is the natural synergistic partner with dictatorship, whereas Bitcoin naturally harmonizes with democracies

- put together a report on why bitcoin solves problems in authoritarian regimes that stablecoins can't

Again, none of these actions would have been possible without @HRF's support.
And there's more to come!(Daniel Batten)
