Nigeria is going through a lot right now - Everything we’ve seen re Binance is the tip of the iceberg of the problems that are present within the country. https://www.rescue.org/press-release/northwest-nigeria-10000-people-displaced-result-conflict-last-two-months-are-urgent

Thank you Anon ❤️- $2000 in USDC donated via irc.eth - I always prefer being anon when doing anything, onchain & offline - But my current role means I can't be anon anymore! 🤣 But when donating onchain I've ensured anons still can - No email. No name. Privacy still matters - Hope you approve @vitalik.eth?

The biggest barrier to donating to charity for people is they often can't see exactly where it goes - The biggest issue for charities, they don't have the technical capability, capacity & funding to to build that infrastructure - How do you solve it? Engage with willing Founders with resources to build with us...

Part 2 - Gaza Video Update. As promised - I've seen Bob's internal report. I wish I could share some of the really horrific details (I'm talking about how dead bodies are being returned by the IDF & what's said to us behind closed doors by US/UK Govts) - But suffice to say, I do wonder how history will talk about this.

As promised - Part 1 - Gaza Video update, that I can share externally outside of our NGO. I'm not sharing this anywhere except for here & I'm very certain our org won't be posting it online for people to search/find it but we are sharing it discretely with our existing partners. Part 2 coming shortly.

We & 50 other NGO CEO's signed a joint letter submitted to President Biden yesterday - I don't recall ever seeing so much unity for 1 objective. Interaction is an alliance of the US's non profits. https://www.rescue.org/press-release/interaction-member-ceos-send-public-letter-president-biden-address-crisis-gaza

I'm sure this will impact everyone here... My official role is "kind of" for this. My personal opinion is, I hate this & 100% against. https://www.dlnews.com/articles/regulation/eu-parliament-passes-anti-money-laundering-bill/?utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=NODE%20APR%2024%202024&utm_term=The%20Node

So I had an internal Gaza call yesterday and have some facts to give regarding current factual status we see from our immediate team... Lots to cover - If I could do long threads here, I could give a ton more detail, but I'll keep it super concise, but you're very welcome to ask me anything as I have visibility - 🧵

Tried touching grass earlier - Touched seaweed instead, still counts right?? Blessed with sunshine in the UK this Friday evening! Thank god! We are very lucky in the west & people often forget the privilege we have compared to other countries - But I too often think of those who aren’t even safe to just breathe!

8 Million people forced to flee their homes - Unfortunately in our news cycle - You don’t even hear about it, doesn’t even make the news! Thats almost ALL of NYC or London, forced to flee their homes to give some context. Imagine! Current countries they’re fleeing to include Chad, South Sudan, Egypt & Uganda.

I’m glad you brought the charity aspect into this - I’ve been thinking really seriously as to whether we as an NGO should launch similar around our current Gaza work. There is clearly support to fund work there, but amid the current cycle - It’s also clear people want to make money for now rather than give 🧵
