On July 11th, I presented for 90 minutes to the Philanthropy Group- Chicago on Bitcoin & The Future of Philanthropy. I would like to thank Rich Gage and Gus Wilhelmy for inviting me to speak on a topic I’m very passionate about.
Digital currencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum will innovate and disrupt non profits and private foundations by;
- Reducing bank expenses and payment friction
- Providing complete transparency in accounting books and records
- Expanding base and adding tens or hundreds of thousands of real time donors
- Increasing trust by offering real time monitoring of restricted & non-restricted funds
- Capturing micro-impulse donations for specific exhibits
- Improving goodwill during gala events where time & opportunity is restricted
- Providing micro donations throughout the year instead of November -January crush
I’m excited to report that after a meeting with Monica Metzler, the Director of the Illinois Science Council, a not-for-profit corporation, is now accepting Bitcoin! http://www.illinoisscience.org/about/get-involved/
