Wallet setup at the kitchen table
A volunteer visits in person, opens a crypto wallet with them, explains seed phrases in plain language, and writes the recovery words down by hand.
Crypto education for elders
Teaching elders
to move money in
crypto, safely.
Bucket List Heroes is a nonprofit that teaches seniors how cryptocurrency works and how to use it without losing a cent. We sit with them at the kitchen table, set up their wallet, walk them through every transfer, and stand between them and the scammers who target this space.

The work
Three things, done slowly, done well.
Learning to spot the scams
We teach the patterns. Fake support agents, romance wallets, urgent transfer requests. Every senior in our program learns to recognise the move before it lands.
Sending crypto, the safe way
Step by step coaching the first time they send Bitcoin, Ethereum or Solana. Test transactions first, address checks every time, no transfer ever made under pressure.
What year one looks like.
A young project with a clear plan. Treasury fully onchain via the Pump.fun charity wallet.
