Hi,

You might remember news about big bitcoin donation from the Pineapple Fund:

I wonder how OSMF plans to use it?

This is substantial amount of money, however I'm aware that it's just a 
one time shot and not a big change for the OSM in the long run - it's 
"only" about 2x more than yearly income:

"Our total income in 2016, without SOTM, was £124,000."
