I sent a guy in Gaza sats via lightning which he then used to buy supplies for several people.

He provided picture evidence of what he was able to buy with it, it was quite alot.

I was curious about how he managed to spend them.

He said there was an Israeli guy nearby that would convert lightning to Shekels, and then he used the Shekels to buy the supplies.

I would imagine that the facility to convert in that way is all but impossible in Gaza at this stage.
