Activists don’t have much options left to crowdfund/fundraise for their activities. It is all started from FATF recommendations, perceived NGOs as risk actors.

Financial institutions one by one exclude us.

So when I see such political case and at the same time tech developers who expect ed to raise funds for legal defense from one of the most regulated platforms, I wonder, how at the earth those guys were expecting to fundraise at #GoFundMe?

This is the most discriminating/privileged platform only.

If you want to feel financial exclusion as result of over-regulation implemented AML/CFT rules, then you go there. But definitely not to fundraise.

One of the reasons why we teach other activists to fundraise with #bitcoin because they were financially excluded from this and other platforms.
