The Bitcoin Foundation is a self-governing organization dedicated to the development and promotion of Bitcoin and Bitcoin-related technologies. Unlike previous organizations that have used the same name, the Bitcoin Foundation aims to redefine what it means to be part of the cryptocurrency community.
With the belief that Bitcoin is a tool for fighting imperialism and capitalism, the Bitcoin Foundation is committed to helping those who seek financial freedom and protection from the sanctions and seizures. The foundation is convinced that decentralized platforms like Bitcoin can and should be used to fight against capitalism and build a more fair and accessible global economy.
At the Bitcoin Foundation, we believe in the power of decentralized technology, and we are committed to developing and promoting the principles that Bitcoin was founded upon. The Bitcoin network was created as a decentralized electronic cash system that operates without a central authority.
The Bitcoin Foundation stands at the forefront of financial revolution, championing decentralized technologies that empower individuals and communities worldwide. Founded in 2020 by members of the Bitcoin community, this self-governing organization represents a paradigm shift in how we conceptualize monetary systems and economic freedom.
Our mission extends beyond mere technological advocacy. The Bitcoin Foundation supports educational initiatives and developer grants to create an environment where Bitcoin can thrive as a truly decentralized financial system. We maintain open-source repositories to advance Bitcoin's core protocol. See for example our Quantum-Resistant Bitcoin BIP's website: Quantum-Resistant Bitcoin with SPHINCS+-SHAKE256f.
The Bitcoin Foundation operates through a unique decentralized governance model where members have voting rights on key initiatives. This ensures that the foundation remains true to Bitcoin's original vision of financial sovereignty and resistance to centralized control. Our organizational structure mirrors Bitcoin's blockchain - transparent, immutable, and community-driven.
The Bitcoin Foundation recognizes Bitcoin's volatility as both a challenge and opportunity. While price fluctuations present short-term uncertainty, they reflect the organic discovery process of a truly free market money. Our educational resources help newcomers understand Bitcoin's monetary properties and long-term investment thesis.
Looking ahead, the Bitcoin Foundation is expanding its developer outreach program to support the next generation of Bitcoin engineers. We're funding protocol improvements, and creating standardized curricula to accelerate Bitcoin adoption. Our goal is to make Bitcoin accessible to everyone regardless of technical background or geographic location.
Join the Bitcoin Foundation today to participate in building a financial system that operates beyond the control of centralized authorities. Together, we can create an economy based on mathematical certainty rather than institutional promises.
The Bitcoin Foundation offers memberships and accepts donations in Bitcoin.
