Donald Trump2026-07-30 23:37:55Trump says Hamas agreed to full disarmament, with Israeli withdrawal to followU.S. President Donald Trump said on July 31 that a “historic agreement” had been reached by what he described as a peace committee, under which Hamas and all armed groups in Gaza would fully disarm. He said the deal would mark a key step toward Gaza being governed by a new Palestinian government that would work closely with the peace committee and assist the Palestinian people. Trump also said Israel would receive security guarantees and that Gaza would no longer serve as a base for what he called terrorist attacks. According to his statement, the agreement would move forward in carefully designed phases. Once disarmament is completed, Israeli forces would withdraw, while an international stabilization force and a new Palestinian police force would work together to maintain security for Gaza’s residents and neighboring countries.

Bitcoin2026-07-17 02:00:16Gaza fundraiser case highlights how Bitcoin is being used to bypass payment restrictionsA fundraising case tied to Gaza is drawing attention to a broader problem in humanitarian finance: raising money online can be fast, but getting it to people in crisis can be far harder once banking rules, sanctions regimes, and anti-money laundering requirements come into play. According to Forbes, Sami Jamal Al-Shannat raised more than £55,000 through GoFundMe for family members affected by the war, only to find that the platform could not send money directly into Gaza. After a 3.9% fee, the remaining funds had to be routed through a designated beneficiary in a supported country, and Sami said he still has not received the full amount after that arrangement broke down. The report uses the case to examine how Bitcoin-based platforms such as Geyser and Agora are trying to change the structure of trust in cross-border aid. Geyser says it vets campaigns and works with more than 100 field partners, while Agora lets donations go straight to wallets controlled by recipients and shifts credibility checks to outside validators. Human rights advocates cited in the piece, including representatives from the Human Rights Foundation and Open Dialogue Foundation, argue that financial compliance rules can block legitimate aid flows and even contribute to what one interviewee called “transnational financial repression.” At the same time, none of the sources claim Bitcoin removes the need for verification, oversight, or accountability.2030
Bitcoin2026-07-17 02:03:10Bitcoin Crowdfunding Platforms Are Reworking How Humanitarian Funds Reach People in CrisisA Forbes report highlighted how conventional crowdfunding and payment rails can fail people caught in war, sanctions, and financial exclusion, even after money has been raised successfully. The story centered on Sami Jamal Al-Shannat, who raised more than £55,000 on GoFundMe for family members in Gaza, only to find that the platform could not pay Gaza directly. After a 3.9% fee, the remaining money had to be sent to a named beneficiary in a supported country, leaving the final transfer dependent on personal trust. Sami said that arrangement later broke down and he still has not received the full amount. The report examined how Bitcoin-based platforms such as Geyser and Agora are trying to redesign that structure. Geyser uses project reviews and a network of more than 100 field partners to assess credibility, while Agora separates validation from fund custody by letting donations go straight to wallets controlled by recipients. Interviewees including Michele Morucci, Mary Kate, Femi Longe, and Lyudmyla Kozlovska argued that the issue is not only moving money across borders, but deciding where trust should sit when traditional financial intermediaries cannot serve affected regions. They also stressed that direct payments do not remove the need for verification, oversight, or accountability.1520
