Zach Bronstein is the COO of Endaoment, DeFi’s community foundation. Endaoment is organized around the central principle of facilitating charitable donations in cryptocurrency. Essentially, it allows anyone to donate any cryptocurrency, to any 501c nonprofit. Zach describes the process that donors go through to use Endaoment, and the process that nonprofits go through to receive those funds. We dive into what it’s like working with nonprofits who may be experiencing their first touchpoint with crypto through Endaoment, and what happens in those rare edge cases when a nonprofit can’t receive their funds. We discuss the exciting intersection between web3 and nonprofits, which revolves around a shared desire for transparency. We also dive into how Endaoment is empowering donors, the potential future of Endaoment, investing donations, and making Endaoment more composable.We close out our conversation with Zach sharing his favorite and least favorite aspects of the crypto space as well as his favorite place in the world.
