If you don\u2019t already know what Geyser Fund is, you might want to skip to <\/span>\u201cWhat is Geyser Fund<\/i><\/b>\u201d<\/b> first.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you <\/span>do<\/span><\/i> know what Geyser Fund is, then you’re probably asking yourself why BitcoinVN – a for-profit company and Vietnam\u2019s oldest Bitcoin exchange service – is getting active on a donation platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The short answer:<\/span><\/p>\n

No, we\u2019re not looking to raise funds for BitcoinVN. We\u2019re fortunate to be a modestly profitable firm, providing real value to our customer base – and as such, able to support ourselves.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, being in this position also means we believe it\u2019s our responsibility to use part of our earnings to support the wider ecosystem.<\/span><\/p>\n

Beyond the various forms of support we’ve provided over the years to <\/span>open-source projects in the space<\/span><\/a>, Geyser Fund opens up an avenue to support a range of creators in their efforts to contribute to the Bitcoin ecosystem.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, why does this matter to you?<\/span><\/p>\n

If you’re looking to contribute to support-worthy causes in the space yourself, you\u2019re welcome <\/span>to tag along by following the projects and initiatives we choose to support<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019ll do our best to vet these efforts to the best of our abilities, and you can choose to rely on our judgement to highlight causes we believe are genuinely contributing to the Bitcoin ecosystem.<\/span><\/p>\n

That said, a project not listed or supported by us doesn\u2019t imply it\u2019s untrustworthy – we simply don\u2019t have the time or resources to conduct due diligence on every available initiative. So don\u2019t let that hold back your own donation efforts or independent judgement.<\/span><\/p>\n

Think of our support as just one signal you can use when assessing whether a project has the backing or endorsement of trusted peers in the space.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Geyser Fund?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Geyser Fund is a Bitcoin-native crowdfunding platform built to support creators, builders, and community initiatives within the Bitcoin ecosystem. Projects range from open-source development and education to media, local meetups, and advocacy – all funded directly in Bitcoin.<\/span><\/p>\n

The platform was launched by a group of long-time Bitcoiners and builders who recognized the need for a transparent, censorship-resistant way to financially empower those contributing to Bitcoin. Their motivation: strengthen the grassroots layer of the network by making it easier for value-aligned individuals and projects to raise support – without relying on intermediaries or corporate sponsorships.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Geyser does <\/b>not<\/i><\/b> require sign-up<\/b> to donate – you can send funds <\/span>directly from your own Bitcoin wallet<\/b>, including via <\/span>Lightning<\/b> or <\/span>on-chain<\/b>, and stay fully anonymous if you wish.<\/span><\/p>\n
