Part 16/19:
A key innovation is Scott’s plan to leverage Bitcoin for charity funding. Recognizing Bitcoin’s potential as an appreciating asset and a tool for long-term impact, Scott introduces the idea of a "Bitcoin Water Trust." The concept involves donors contributing Bitcoin—either directly or through pledged amounts—that the organization would hold onto until at least 2025, allowing value appreciation to fund water projects in the future.
He shares stories of early donors, including Tony Hawk and the Winklevoss twins, who have generously contributed Bitcoin or pledged to do so. The plan is to hold onto these assets, benefit from their potential growth, and avoid rushing to liquidate, thereby maximizing impact.
