«I remember I started to play bitcoin several years ago. Then the cost of one bitcoin for the first time became a two-digit number and I thought it was a triumphant moment for bitcoin. I have observed and marveled at irregular prices up to 15, 20, 30 dollars… Wow! Today I see that bitcoin is already 17 539 dollars. I still sometimes can’t believe it’s a reality. Bitcoin changed my life and now I have much more money than I can spend. My goals and motives in life do not require me to have 20 million or was mega-rich. So I’m doing something else: sacrificing most of your bitcoins to charity. I call it «Pineapple Foundation», — says philanthropist.
