The Bitcoin Adoption Fundraiser Project
Through the Bitcoin adoption fundraiser project we actively help secure the future of the projects we support.
The donations raised in BTC are hoddl’ed in our self-custody wallet.
- As some of our partner NGOs don’t yet accept Bitcoin, we safely keep their project’s donations in a separate wallet until they’re ready to use them directly.
- Projects who already accept Bitcoin donations are paid in Bitcoin to their wallet. Meanwhile the BTC can appreciate to strengthen our fund for further initiatives.
Bitcoin contributes not only to the effectiveness of wildlife and nature conservation efforts but also to the overall safety and well-being of the dedicated individuals working in challenging and dangerous environments.

Realised Projects
JANUARY 2024 – Adopting Bitcoin Conference in Cape-Town, South-Africa.
As the Bitcoin technology is new and not always well understood, education and explanation is needed. Therefore we worked together with Bitcoin Ekasi to get the wildlife organisations HERD Elephants, Transfrontier Africa, The Black Mambas and The BushBabies to the Adopting Bitcoin Conference in Cape-Town, South-Africa.
JANUARY 2024 : 1,850,295 SATS through GEYSER FUNDRAISER to cover the travel expenses for 3 team members of the Black Mambas rangers unit to attend the Bitcoin conference in Cape Town. Their participation has enabled them to gain insights into adopting the Bitcoin technology for enhanced financial and transactional security within their local communities.
The Black Mambas embody female empowerment in a traditionally male-dominated field. They actively work on shared responsibility from their community work for protecting the environment. Therefore, we have organised that they will also be able to visit the Bitcoin Ekasi Center after attending the conference in order to explore what a bitcoin circular economy could mean for themselves and their own community.
