On this episode of Rehash, we’re speaking with Kat from ethevacuations, a project that’s helping fund evacuations from Gaza with ETH.
Many of you might know Kat from her previous role as Head of Product at Zora, but since December 2023, she has been focusing her efforts on providing humanitarian aid to Palestine through crypto rails.
In this episode we talk about some of the unique behaviors and impacts crypto enables, such as increased speed and ease of international remittances, as well as some of the challenges crypto introduces.
Kat also shares her thoughts on how crypto can be used for international aid more broadly, how she handles tough conversations with friends and colleagues about the crisis that’s been going on in Palestine since October of last year, and what she wishes the mainstream knew about crypto beyond memecoins and scams.
Kat has raised over a quarter million dollars and helped safely evacuate 40 people through ethevacuations so far, and you can support her by donating directly to the wallet address listed on ethevacuations.xyz, by collecting this episode at pods.media/rehash, by tipping on Farcaster or Zora (links below), or by building ethevacuations into a split for an NFT project you’re managing.
