    Vote #2 from me.

    The Ukranian humanitarian appeal would get my support, but I wouldn't veto any other appropriately registered charity.
  • One more vote from me too. What about food banks in the UK (The Trussell Trust is a collective organisation that has many across the country), given the acute cost of living crisis facing many of those people who don’t have the luxury of deciding whether to invest in Bitcoin or not (or shares, savings accounts etc)

    I vote for any of the top charities from give well: https://www.givewell.org/charities/top-charities but the Ukrainian resistance is truly inspiring.

    Respect for sticking to your generous bet.
    No one has ever become poor by giving
  • +1 for Ukraine too here from me.

    Only two more votes required to make the generous offer of a £1000 donation to charity happen.
    [I should add my apologies for mis-spelling Ukrainian...]
