Should donate some to promising Crypto projects.

This week an early bitcoin adopter announced on the forum Reddit that he had so much bitcoin he plans to donate 5,057 BTC (US$86Mn) to charitable causes. So far the anonymous donor created a website called the ‘Pineapple Fund,’ and has already donated $5M in bitcoins to some well known nonprofit organizations.


Cryptocurrencies are worth a lot of money these days, and this holiday season one bitcoin whale is donating quite a bit of BTC to charitable organizations. The anonymous donor says he saw the promise of bitcoin long before it broke the single-digit price range. The donor explains the “shattering returns” of bitcoin over the years has given him more money than he can spend. The early adopter has now started a website for the funds he is giving away called the Pineapple Fund , where registered nonprofit organizations can apply for donations. The owner of the website states;

Possible, but they signed it proving ownership of the address https://live.blockcypher.com/btc/tx/c44ad5f83ddc84d08967c7652311f0a23aafa8e54d7db0911a2c7b5bc20ff988/
Also according to the article in op they have already donated to the past on multiple occasions so I don't see why they would fake it now. Last point I don't think It's a "whale" could be a group of multiple people.

I really doubt it could be Satoshi because the address must have been recently created because the first time it was used was about five years and damn i wish i was the owner of the address and maybe it could be him who knows multiple addresses are created at a whim these days.
