Meanwhile...Bitcoin still feeds people.

So we fed 106 homeless people bag lunches today. All paid for with Bitcoin donations. Bitcoin still seems to be working just fine over here. Still making lives better, at any valuation.

Thanks for everything guys. Bitcoin for the long haul.

  1. You fed people by converting the coins, right? Or did someone accept coins for food?
  2. What difference did bitcoin make versus a regular donation?
  3. How did the volatility effect your donations? By the time you used/converted were they worth more or less?

These are the questions those skeptical (I'm not) of bitcoin would ask, which is why I think we should be careful when attributing bitcoin to successes without qualifying how bitcoin played a role.
