There are long discussions between me and SPI about crypto because of this
very donation

This lead to them discussing it on their last meeting and i guess also
internally since then

I suspect that they will have a vote about adding stablecoin donation support
to SPI through stripe on their next meeting. But i dont know this

discussion about them directly managing the wallet would come after that i assume

Noone stoped anyone from discussing, not before, not now, not tomorrow

also the FF in ffmpeg stands for fast forward.

yes, i overdid it especially for a wallet with 0$ in it

switched on even debug mode on the ledger and went though 40+ screens
and compared the arguments
