Mick Morucci
Contributed piece by Mick Morucci, co-founder and CEO of Geyser, tracing the platform back to the first lockdown, when he watched Bitcoiners organise ideas in Twitter replies and ask for sats. He contrasts Geyser's permissionless, non-custodial Lightning funding with Kickstarter and GoFundMe, whose bank-account requirements exclude most of the world. He cites 841 active projects as of late 2023 and names Bitcoin projects the platform has funded, including Bitcoin Trading Cards.
