The contrast between traditional platform geographic restrictions and Bitcoin's borderless nature really highlights how much we accept arbitrary limitaions. The point about a $5 donation equaling a day's work in some countries is wild, dunno why more people aren't exploring this model for mutual aid networks. I've seen local organizers strugle with PayPal freezing funds unexpectedly. The three pillars framework (Trust, Proof of Work, Vision) feels like it could apply beyond just fundraising too!

This is exactly why it works - no freezing of funds and permissionless cross-border transactions for anyone.
