Direct Person-To-Person Donations

Direct person-to-person donation is the simplest possible giving structure: one wallet sends, another wallet receives. No platform. No charity. No staff. The simplicity is the feature, and also the limit.

How it works mechanically

Sender opens their wallet. Pastes the recipient's address. Confirms. The chain clears the transaction in seconds. Both sides see the result on the public ledger.

The trust math

The sender takes a small risk on a single human. There is no platform guaranteeing the outcome. The transaction is irreversible. This is why one dollar is the cultural floor — at one dollar, the risk is small enough not to require trust.

When P2P is the right tool

Short, specific, time-bounded needs. Stranger-to-stranger micro-gifts. International gifts where bank rails are slow or expensive.

When it is the wrong tool

Large gifts where you need a tax receipt. Complex multi-step interventions. Causes that need an organisation, not a wallet.

Frequently asked questions

Is direct P2P donation safe?

Mechanically, very. Socially, it depends on the recipient. Treat any direct gift as a small bet, not a guarantee.

Can I take it back if I change my mind?

No. Blockchain transactions are final. This is one reason micro amounts dominate.
