How much money did bitcoiners give Finney & his family?
In recent years, the cryptocurrency community has witnessed an increasing trend of philanthropy and charitable donations. One such notable instance is the support provided to Hal Finney, a pioneer in the Bitcoin community who unfortunately passed away in 2014. His family continues to be a source of inspiration for many. My question is: How much money, if any, did the Bitcoin community raise and donate to Finney and his family during his illness and after his passing? Did these donations come from individual bitcoiners, foundations, or both? Were there any significant public campaigns or fundraising efforts that mobilized the community? Understanding the extent of support given can help us appreciate the impact of cryptocurrency philanthropy and its potential for social good.
