I always wondered though, how much of the bitcoin donated to the truckers actually got to them, and how did they use it?
I donated some at the time, but I have no idea whether it actually went to any of the truckers.
I do think there were some issues. I recall a lot of arguing on Twitter over the way it was being done, but I believe for the most part the bitcoin got to the truckers.
You can ask @BTCsessions more about it. I am pretty sure he was on what bitcoin did at some point talking about it and what went well, what didn’t and what he would do differently if he had to do it over.

Yes there were some snags - largely due to problems that I unfortunately caused by not realizing how quickly things would change. We initially set out to raise a few thousand dollars, and thought the protest would of course remain "legal". Instead we got martial law, shut bank accounts and over a million dollars in donations. We did NOT follow best practices out the gate and because of that only 70% of the funds got directly into the hands of truckers.
I did a talk about it in Prague and what I would consider changing in the future.
