Specifically, we will be closing our Bitpay account, which will remove our ability to directly accept cryptocurrency as a method of donating.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Seitz-Gruwell added that the foundation would continue to monitor the evolving issue, and the foundation would be &#8220;flexible and responsive to the needs of volunteers and donors&#8221;. <\/p>\n<h3>Related Coverage<\/h3>\n<p> READ MORE
