Bitwise Donates $150K to Boost Bitcoin Development

Cryptocurrency asset management company Bitwise has announced a significant donation of $150,000 to support Bitcoin open-source developers. This contribution is part of Bitwise's commitment to donate 10% of its gross profits annually, a pledge made when the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB) was launched. The funds will be allocated to three organizations: Brink, OpenSats, and the Human Rights Foundation.

The donation comes at a time when the Bitcoin community is actively seeking to improve the cryptocurrency's infrastructure and security. Open-source developers play a crucial role in maintaining and enhancing the Bitcoin network, and Bitwise's contribution will help support their efforts. The three organizations receiving the funds are well-respected in the Bitcoin community and have demonstrated a commitment to promoting the growth and development of the cryptocurrency.

Brink is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting Bitcoin development and education. OpenSats is a project focused on improving Bitcoin's scalability and usability, while the Human Rights Foundation is an international non-governmental organization that advocates for human rights and the use of Bitcoin as a tool for financial freedom.

Bitwise's donation is a testament to the company's commitment to the Bitcoin community and its dedication to supporting the growth and development of the cryptocurrency. As the Bitcoin ecosystem continues to evolve, contributions from companies like Bitwise will be essential in ensuring the long-term success and sustainability of the network.
