It does not seem very wise to publicly acknowledge donating money that may have contributed to direct casualties of Russian personal. All the anonymity just vanished, and marked yourself as a legitimate target from Russian intelligence.
Really interesting stats from Ukraine's Unmanned System Forces (aka drones).
The big one: the marginal cost to kill or seriously injure a Russian with drones is just $911 USD.

I've personally spoken to quite a few soldiers at different units (units have fundraising and recruiting booths at basically every big event in Ukraine), and they all say the same thing: a remarkably high percentage of their drone funding comes from private donations. A big problem is Western military aid tends to be tied to specific weapons systems – not money – so the overall resources can't be spent optimally.
Of course, it's not like the war itself costs $911/Russian casualty – there's lots of other costs and investment necessary to get there. But the fact that units are still short on drones even though relatively little investment would fix this is absurd.
Also, I don't keep track. But I wouldn't be surprised if just my personal donations – anonymously with Bitcoin – have resulted in the deaths of a few Russians. You can easily make a difference.

Meh. Someone needs to be brave enough to normalize it.
