A call to non profit organizations that support people in need.

Bitcoin carries a long tradition of helping communities and supporting meaningful causes.

At @bitinpeace we believe Bitcoin inheritance planning should reflect people's values. The principles that guide someone in life should continue even after they pass away.

Many of our users, including survey participants, said they want to donate a small part of their stack to a cause they believe in.

We want to make that simple.
Donation will be an optional part of legacy planning.

Human Rights Foundation (@HRF) and @OpenSats are already confirmed on our list. If you represent a non profit organization and want to be included, you can reach out to me and we will review it together.

We never decide where people donate.
We only make it easier for those who want to give back.

Quick rule: never copy recipient addresses from transaction history for meaningful transfers. Use saved contacts and verify more than the first and last characters, especially on mobile.

[Umut Kundukan @ukundukan]

Address poisoning is one of the most dangerous self-custody threats because it targets human habits.

Attackers send tiny transfers to plant lookalike addresses in your transaction history. One careless copy paste later, funds are gone.

Another data breach.

This is exactly why BitInPeace is privacy focused and built to avoid storing personal data.

You shouldn’t have to trust companies with your identity.
Privacy matters.

End of year reminder

The goal isnt catching every price move.

Its still being here next year, with your keys, your conviction, and your mistakes already behind you.

[Umut Kundukan @ukundukan]

Amazing to see this level of goodwill from the community.
Looking forward to bringing donation options to @bitinpeace

[BitInPeace @bitinpeace]

496 people joined our inheritance survey 🧡
64% said Yes to donating a small part of their stack.
26% said Maybe, depending on the cause.

That means 90 percent willing to give back to the community.
This is even more than we expected and fully aligned with what we believe in at BitInPeace.

Donation options for #Bitcoin are now on our roadmap.

Creating a #Bitcoin inheritance plan is easier than you think:
• Connect your wallet
• Choose your heirs
• Set inactivity period
• Pre-sign your transfer
BitInPeace handles the execution when inactivity is confirmed.
Simple. Secure. Non-custodial.

No need to make it complex. Just buy #Bitcoin and you will be fine. Think of the current price as a Black Friday deal. Take it and buy.

[Gareth Jenkinson @gazza_jenks]

The Bitcoin Power Law Theory is absolutely fascinating and the model's upper ceiling predicts $1M per BTC by 2028.

To quote @Giovann35084111 - "Bitcoin is ruled by power laws. Its regularities show that it behaves more like a physical system than an asset."

How does this model work? We've got the alpha 👇

@rkbaggs and I spoke to @pA1nD about his new Tether Gold DAT and why he remains convinced that tokenized Gold will be a massive drawcard for institutional investors.

But he also sees Bitcoin eventually surpassing Gold's market cap due to the Power Law that is evident in various metrics relating to Bitcoin (its value, hashrate, wallets etc).

How soon could this happen? As early as 2033, if the Bitcoin Power Law Theory continues to be validated.

So, why did the Winklevoss twins launch @cypherpunktech - the first Zcash Treasury Company?

Why are they bullish on @Zcash? Can Bitcoin and Zcash coexist?

I caught up with @tyler and @cameron last week for @Cointelegraph - here's everything they said about Zcash 👇

"We're huge fans of Bitcoin. We're hodlers, of course, and also huge fans of Zcash, which we view as encrypted Bitcoin."

"Bitcoin is where you store your value and Zcash is where you transact or spend your value. And so we launched a DAT, a treasury company for Zcash, but it's really dedicated to privacy and self-sovereignty to help mainstream these ideas. The catalyst for Bitcoin was the financial crisis of 2008. And the catalyst for privacy is the dawn of the age of AI."

@gazza_jenks @BitcoinConfEUR @saifedean @adam3us @jackmallers @DavidFBailey @khingoei @wkkaung Likewise Gareth! Great job on all sessions, didnt miss any 👏

[Umut Kundukan @ukundukan]

What a week at @BitcoinConfEUR 2025

Great energy, and so many frontiers pushing Bitcoin forward. Met @saifedean , @adam3us , @jackmallers , @DavidFBailey , @khingoei , @gazza_jenks , @wkkaung , and more.

Talked about wallet integrations, off-ramp options, and adding Bitcoin donations to legacy planning. Lots of ideas brewing for @BitInPeace

The Dutch Bitcoin scene showed up strong 🇳🇱

[Gareth Jenkinson @gazza_jenks]

Bitcoin is a technology that people need.

It’s a fantastic tool for fundraising. It’s a fantastic tool for humanitarian aid.

Really enjoyed leading this discussion on Bitcoin crowdfunding at Bitcoin Amsterdam!

[Umut Kundukan @ukundukan]

@AlphaEvenings @BybitEU @khingoei @Treasury_BTC @gazza_jenks @Cointelegraph @pvoogt Thanks for this great event!

[Umut Kundukan @ukundukan]

Had a really good evening at Alpha Evenings x Treasury event hosted by @BybitEU.
The Bitcoin community in Amsterdam keeps getting stronger ⚡️

Enjoyed talking with @khingoei from @Treasury_BTC, @gazza_jenks from @Cointelegraph, @pvoogt from The Dutch Bitcoin Embassy, Jos Lazet from @blockrise, and others shaping Bitcoin in Europe.

Had a great chat with Gareth about Bitcoin and what we’re building at BitInPeace, looking forward to continuing that at @BitcoinConfEUR in Amsterdam next week.

Also spoke with Meyade Curfs from @Bybit_Official about off-ramp options our users have been asking for. Maybe collaborating with Bybit! We’ll see.

[Umut Kundukan @ukundukan]

@Hayden_Otto Just watched your full review, brutally honest. Cant believe they took it without permission.. Looks like it worked though, they seem to have partnered with BitKey recently 😠

[Umut Kundukan @ukundukan]

@gazza_jenks @EliBenSasson @rkbaggs Thanks Gareth, you make difficult topics engaging 🙏

[Umut Kundukan @ukundukan]

Just watched it all non-stop.. The points about applying ZK to Bitcoin were sound. Great insights from @EliBenSasson
Thanks @gazza_jenks and @rkbaggs for this solid episode.

[Gareth Jenkinson @gazza_jenks]

Zcash has been trending on Crypto Twitter for months.

Not many know the backstory behind the biggest cryptocurrency in the privacy space.

We're chatting to @EliBenSasson about the history of @Zcash and the ZK tech behind it.

Join me and @rkbaggs live!

Is multi-sig #Bitcoin inheritance really safe 🤔

One trusted key can change everything.

[Gareth Jenkinson @gazza_jenks]

The World Economic Forum doesn't talk about Bitcoin - so I made sure that we did in 2025.

I took the chance to ask if the US will adopt a Bitcoin strategic reserve during the 'Crypto at a Crossroads' session inside this year's WEF conference.

Coinbase's Brian Armstrong remains confident we will see a Bitcoin reserve in America.

Interestingly, South Africa's Reserve Bank Governor Lesetja Kganyago made it evident that many still don't understand the underlying value proposition of Bitcoin.

Armstrong provided an important response:

"Many things have been used as money over the years. I think it's clear at this point that, you know, Bitcoin is a better form of money than gold. It is provably scarce, just like gold, but it's more portable and divisible. So you can actually use it. It was the best performing asset of the last ten years. And so for a store of value, I think it's going to be important for governments to hold this over time. It may not it might start with being 1% of their reserves, but I think over time it'll come to be equal to or greater than gold reserves."
