There was a ways to donate, and I actually don't—this may have been as of—sometime right after January 6th. I think you said that the payment processors had cut you off from receiving money, and you would only be able to accept cryptocurrency? Do you know how you started doing that?

A No, I don't recall.

Q There was a—I think a ways to donate link that included Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ether, Money Button, PayPal, Cash App, and an Amazon Wish List.

A So that sounds like the donate page to my personal site, alialexander.org, you know, that's a few years old.

Q It's a few years old?

A Yeah, I believe so. My personal site? That's, again, where my content locker was, where, if my existing customers and people who liked my content wanted to give me extra money or whatever, they had different ways to donate.

Q You've been taking cryptocurrency for years?

A Yeah.

Q Not everyone's that knowledgeable about cryptocurrency. Sorry. That was just a moment of marvel.

A Did you—would you have been the person to process these—the—your personal donations to the alialexander.com website, or did anybody else process the funds that were donated?

Q I don't know. I'm actually really horrible with—with all of that stuff. My intention was to just provide optionality for people. Most of the time, they don't use it.

A Did you ever collect any funds raised from the cryptocurrency?

Q Related to Stop the Steal?

A Uh-huh.
