it links to a hamas telegram channel with 185k people in it - https://t.me/qassambrigades/27035 - with a post there that translates to the above quote
it is clearly not a "Bitcoin is for Terrorists" piece since it claims that bitcoin is not useful for them
this reminds me of how putin pressured binance to go after navalny donors - https://www.reuters.com/technology/how-crypto-giant-binance-built-ties-russian-fsb-linked-agency-2022-04-22/ - just instead of putin it is Israel and the US
Fair enough, didn’t find that link and obv can’t translate.
Would like to know what/if they offered an alternative, even Monero?
Why would Hamas or any pro-Palestinian group deny funding w/o offering an alternative…?
If I read you right, I agree it seems like a counter-party has crafted this message.

not to spam…I get that Bitcoin is not useful for them, but that implies they have no means of exchanging btc for any useful currency.
If that’s true, fair enough…we’re all way too early.
But I’ve travelled enough to know that money exchange is very fluid, esp in border countries. There’s always connections.
Anyway, not arguing, this report just triggered a couple red-flags for me.
Appreciate you!
