Pineapple Fund, a Bitcoin-only charity, has reportedly accomplished its ultimate mission and donated 5104 bitcoins (BTC) or $55 mln to various nonprofit organizations, the fund’s creator wrote in a farewell post on Reddit May 10.
In December, when the BTC price approached its record high of $20,000, an anonymous donor who goes by the nickname Pine set a goal to give away 5057 bitcoins worth around $86 mln at the time. The amount turned out to be worth $31 mln less than they had initially anticipated due to the dramatic drop of the crypto market in early 2018. The donor later described the market downturn in terms of a cryptocurrency “bubble”.
