Crypto currencies might have space and maybe someday a good one might appear, but so far, it's all a Ponzi scheme.
Why not just build an application to mirror their data in a distributed manner using Torrent and let people support their efforts by downloading it?
It is likely that a majority of charitable contributions are transfers of assets with a wide spectrum of liquidity, mostly illiquid. Accepting an asset is not an indication of interest or speculation or bullishness, any contribution towards a non-profit only tells you that the donor was accepted.
You extrapolated a lot for something you will never have information on, as the subsequent transactions will never be reported.
That's an oversimplification. If you dumped ~ $10m of FIL in such a short time, you'd undoubtedly drive the price down while doing so.
Right now, Kraken shows that selling ~ 1000 FIL would drive the price down by over 1% and the support only gets worse from there.
Filecoin is listed on over 100 trading pairs across exchanges.
If hitting the tape simultaneously sounds like a contrived rebuttal to you, I guarantee you I could get a quote from three OTC desks that will take $10,000,000 in Filecoin today and wire transfer $9,900,000 in a few hours.
Crypto support is quite fickle. I didn't even go near the withdrawal aspect, but withdrawing anything more than ~5 BTC worth of currency from an exchange will take at least several business days to get verified, and depending on the exchange you use might takes weeks or possibly you'll never see your money again (there are several stories of less reputable exchanges freezing accounts for "fraud" when they attempt a large withdrawal).
In principal I do agree with what you're saying, but crypto is still very much the wild west at the moment, so I personally would not be trying to shift millions of dollars around on such short time frames.
Also, they could always accept without endorsing.
Enough of wasting energy and human effort on shitcoins...
Message a few and tell me what spreads they quote
In practice, all I saw so far was either pure fraud (USDT) or fiat currency (BTC).
I'm a free-market capitalist/anarcho-capitalist so I want to see people free from the awful state-issued money, but these stupid cryptos we see are no better to use as a substitute.
Eventually, we will probably see alternatives that make sense, but it might take a while.
