user107814: Where can I find a list of historically-important protest and revolutionary movements that accepted bitcoin (and/or other permissionionless cryptocurrencies) as a result-of (or to preempt the risk-of) financial blockades and their accounts being frozen?
The first bitcoin wallet I ever created was in late 2011. I learned about Bitcoin as part of the Occupy Wall Street movement. As a permissionless currency, we used Bitcoin to accept donations that couldn't be blocked by the financial institutions (the same financial institutions that we were actively protesting and demanding criminal justice against their leadership). It made sense.
Even though this history is apart of living memory, I struggle to find sources of information online pinpointing the exact date Occupy Wall Street started accepting bitcoin, and why.
It's very sad that this history is being muddled. Especially because today, more-and-more people think that that Bitcoin was created as an investment vehicle for capitalists without understanding the history (that it was created as an egalitarian alternative currency, not a capital asset).
Where can I find a curated, well-referenced list of all the protest movements that accepted Bitcoin, including Occupy Wall Street?
