• PayPal Shut Down GrapheneOS Foundation’s Account Used For Donations
• GrapheneOS on Twitter — Unfortunately, PayPal permanently locked our GrapheneOS Foundation account today. No reason has been provided for the account being locked. All we've done is accept donations. We added our bank account information yesterday in order to begin withdrawing money and it was locked.
• GrapheneOS on Twitter — PayPal has restored our non-profit GrapheneOS Foundation account. We should be able to withdraw all donations made through it in the past few weeks. We received no info on why our account was permanently banned with funds held for 180 days or why they now restored our account.
• GrapheneOS on Twitter — We use Bitcoin as the main way we transfer funds internally, including using it to pay most of our project members. It doesn't replace having bank accounts to pay other expenses or accepting donations in other ways.
