Global Bitcoin Community Rallies for Hal Finney ALS Fund

Hi to all Bitcoiners - it’s Fran here, posting from Hal’s account. 💛 I want to express my appreciation to all of the individuals and organizations that have supported the #RunForHal conference run initiative, raising funds for the @youralsnetwork Hal Finney ALS Research Fund. The #RunForHal initiative runs started in May 2024 at @BTCPrague, with the support of @satoshilabs. Since then there have been several initiative runs: @TheBitcoinConf 2024 in Nashville and 2025 in Las Vegas 🇺🇸, @AustinBTCclub Spring Into Bitcoin in 2025 Austin 🇺🇸, @LuganoPlanB in 2024 and 2025 in Lugano 🇨🇭, @SatsConf 2024 in Brazil 🇧🇷, and @BTCPrague 🇨🇿 again this year. Special thanks to @Matyas44Cook, @kucharmartin_, @slush, @bitsmash, @TracyHoyosLopez, @GreenHillsPR, @gzanganeh, @satsconf_, @lucasdcf, @thebitcoinyogi, @drink_sote, @youralsnetwork, @BitcoinRunners, and all of the volunteer run leaders! If you’re a conference organizer and would like to support or host a #RunForHal fundraising event, please get in touch with @youralsnetwork. Coming soon: the annual Running Bitcoin Challenge starting Jan 10, 2026. A perfect opportunity to run bitcoin with us as we work toward finding a cure for ALS in Hal’s memory.
