LETTER #1: BITCOIN TO THE RESCUE.
GoFundMe has frozen nearly $9M worth of donations made to truckers protesting for freedom in Canada. Patriots are using Bitcoin now.
Since March 2020, all the governments around the world have been using their political power and monopoly on money to control every aspect of people’s lives.
Forced lockdowns, masks, vaccines are being used in the majority of the countries as a means to control the population. Consequently, people are backfiring. Hundreds of thousands of people are coming together in their respective countries to protest these unlawful mandates.
The same happened in Canada on Jan 29, 2022, as hundreds of thousands of trucks were grouped to reach the country’s capital Ottawa and protest peacefully there.
To assist them financially, a GoFundMe fundraiser was organized on Jan 14, 2022, to let people voluntarily donate to this massive convoy of trucks. Freedom-loving patriots showed up and millions of dollars were collected from more than 100K donors in around two weeks.
Due to the centralization of the fundraiser, it seems that the Government of Canada was able to coerce GoFundMe to stop the Freedom Convoy’s campaign and millions of dollars were frozen. They will never reach the people protesting peacefully at Parliament Hill in Ottawa.
The fact that millions of dollars were seized without the consent of donors shows the fragilities of our current financial system. The governments can use their influence to turn off any movement they don’t like.
Thank God for Bitcoin. Freedom, uh…. finds a way.
People are using Bitcoin now. A fundraiser was organized at Tallycoin - a site that allows crowdfunding for any cause using bitcoin in a non-custodial way - and as of this writing, nearly 200M sats ( 2 bitcoins ) were raised. No one in the world can freeze this. Anyone in the world can participate. This is the beauty of Bitcoin.
It’s kind of an advertisement for Bitcoin. As the governments get desperate and try to exert more control over their citizenry, the stronger case they will make for Bitcoin, and the more people will opt-out of their system and join the Bitcoin network that no one can control.
Bitcoin is an imperative force in a world where a handful of individuals can lock away your funds, and events like these will only increase the popularity of Bitcoin.
