Charitable giving is one of the most celebrated uses of Bitcoin. The list of organizations accepting Bitcoin donations grows daily. To encourage its continued success, we offer our Locks service to charities, completely free.

This means that, not only can charities collect 100% of their donations by using the Bitcoin payment network, they can now immediately tie that Bitcoin to USD, GBP, EUR, Gold and Silver, to avoid price volatility. Locks will enable charities to get the maximum benefit from incoming Bitcoin donations.

To celebrate Bitcoin philanthropy, our CEO Ira Miller has donated $400 to Bitcoin’s newest charity, the HKSB, Helen Keller School for the Blind, in Panama. The school was established in 1952 and aims to give visually impaired children equal access to education.

The school provides specialist equipment and training to enable students to reach their full potential in social situations, family life and work. The $400 was spent on headphones to help pupils access audio described content.

Ira stopped by the Christmas party to hand them out.
