Embracing an Ally
A Revolutionary Technology
At the Ripple Foundation, we believe in a future built on transparency, freedom, and trust. That’s why we have embraced Bitcoin — a revolutionary technology designed for the people. By using Bitcoin, we ensure that every donation is fully transparent and directly supports our mission to empower African communities and restore our great Mother Gaia. Investing in Bitcoin allows us not only to maximize the impact of donor funds but also to create a more just and equitable world, free from the control of centralized institutions.
Bitcoin is Hope.
Bitcoin is Love.
Bitcoin is Freedom. Why?
A lot of people are still in the dark about what this new technology truly entails and what gift it genuinely offers. Bitcoin is designed for the people — to give back their rights and to hold their own property and value without it being confiscated or debased through government or bank control. We as a society are purposefully misled about how our monetary system works, and only a few are aware of how banks and governments are actively debasing our currencies. This process—making our money worth less over time—is what we call inflation.
We store our time and life energy in fiat currencies like the dollar, the yuan, or the euro. All these currencies are designed to lose value over time, making it increasingly difficult for us to keep up with life’s demands. Inflation is literally eating away at our lives, shrouded in the misconception that it’s just ‘economic growth’. But it’s a silent thief—eroding our purchasing power and making life a struggle for many.
History shows us that entire empires and nations have crumbled under failing monetary systems. There has never been a money that is truly of the people. Past systems—whether under kings, queens, emperors, or more recently, bankers—were always designed, watched, and controlled by a select few. We, the people, hold no true power over this system, and thus, we have no say in how it works for us.
But now we have Bitcoin. A system with rules but without rulers. A technology based on the principles of sound money. It is scarce, easily transported, indestructible, verifiable, transparent, and fully decentralized. No one can change its rules or manipulate it. Bitcoin is a revolution—a guiding light leading humanity toward a brighter tomorrow. A system that holds everyone to the same fair monetary standards. Whether you are an organic farmer who is just getting by or a high-profile CEO of an asset management firm, Bitcoin simply does not care.
But with all new technologies, there is always pushback, doubt, and fear. This is understandable. All new revolutionary technologies take time to take root in our consciousness and for us to gain understanding. Bitcoin will continue it’s revolutionary route nonetheless. Bitcoin is here to shake up the old world and help humanity remember what true freedom looks like.
We at the Ripple Foundation see ourselves as pioneers of this new era. We are committed to being the very first foundation to have its monetary flows fully transparent. Bitcoin technology enables us to be completely transparent about where our donor funds are allocated. At the Ripple Foundation, we only have one goal: to help our global family flourish. Too often, foundations operate under the misguided guise of CEOs who use donor funds for activities that do not align with the foundation's true mission. There is no real way for donors to verify how their contributions are used, which creates doubt and mistrust. At the Ripple Foundation, we want to put an end to this uncertainty. We have nothing to hide, our mission is clear and our conscience is clean. Our only intention is to attain freedom from endless cycles of poverty and suffering—especially in Africa.
Bitcoin helps us in this endeavor. It allows us to be as transparent as we wish to be. We have developed a system to ensure all financial flows are recorded and displayed for everyone to see — a system we call The Sacred Flow. Centered on maximizing transparency, it guarantees that every financial movement is open and accessible.
We use donor funds to buy Bitcoin and transfer it directly to projects in Ghana, ensuring that funds reach the communities effectively and securely — all without the intervention of banks or governments, thereby increasing our efficiency. Additionally, any surplus Bitcoin we acquire is held as a long-term investment, with the aim of increasing the value of our resources over time. We cover this extensively in the Foundation’s Bitcoin Donation Strategy.
By investing in Bitcoin with our donor funds, we’re also supporting a future where monetary power is held by us, the people. Bitcoin is hope. Bitcoin is love. Bitcoin is Freedom. It’s a new way of empowering communities, upending old systems, and building a world based on justice, transparency, and freedom. Read more about our Bitcoin donation strategy or get to know The Sacred Flow system and witness how we make every cent count—fully transparent, act by act. Together, we can help Gaia heal, empower countless lives, and create a future rooted in true freedom. Join us on this journey!
