Fact Check
The statement is strongly supported by multiple high-authority sources. The Human Rights Foundation's (HRF) own website, a primary source, provides direct confirmation. Two separate articles on the HRF site explicitly mention a grant of '$1.1 million' from its Bitcoin Development Fund. One of these articles further specifies the amount as '1 billion satoshis,' adding a layer of credible detail. Corroborating this information, a highly relevant news article from Bitcoin Magazine confirms all key aspects of the statement: the organization (Human Rights Foundation), the amount ($1.1 million), and the number of recipients (20 projects).There is no conflicting evidence among the provided sources. Several sources describe different HRF grant rounds with different amounts and dates; however, these do not contradict the specific claim in question but rather establish a pattern of the HRF making such grants. Other sources are entirely irrelevant, mentioning the '$1.1 million' figure in completely unrelated contexts. The convergence of evidence from primary organizational sources and a reputable secondary media source provides high confidence in the statement's accuracy.
