If I want to withdraw cash in Israeli shekels, the exchange rate fluctuates a lot. For example, $100 can equal 336–370 ILS, but due to fees and rates at local offices, you might only get about 210 ILS in cash for every $100, which is equivalent to about $62.
7/15How many of these local bank offices still exist? If people don't have one of them near or if it's too dangerous to get there, how do they turn donations into cash?

@katzenberger Bank branches are closed but local exchange offices are still being operated. They’re 2 different things.
The fees are incredibly high though.

I see. Thank you for replying. So if I understood correctly, people transfer money to the accounts of owners of an "exchange office", and the offices hand out the money, withholding an arbitrary amount of "fees"?

@katzenberger Yes, exactly.
If you send me 10 USD, the exchange office will give me cash, but with a big fee: usually I get only 4 or 5 USD in cash out of the initial 10.
That’s how people here turn digital money into cash, it’s not perfect, but it’s what we have. -

@katzenberger Yes, that is correct. In many cases, merchants in Gaza do act like exchange offices too.

@katzenberger The merchant in Gaza buys these goods for millions of shekels like 5 or 10 million. But because of the war, they can’t travel to the West Bank to pay in person, so they transfer digital balance to the supplier’s bank account.
@katzenberger Then the goods arrive in Gaza, and the merchant sells them for cash. Let’s say he earns 20 million shekels in cash now he has a lot of physical money.
-
@katzenberger Let me explain: some well-known merchants in Gaza receive truck shipments through the Kerem Shalom crossing. Things like sugar, fruits, vegetables, cleaning supplies, coffee, etc. These goods usually come from the West Bank or even from Israel.

@katzenberger Later, the same merchant sells that cash to people and offices. People pay him in balance, and he gives them cash so he can use that balance again to buy new goods.
@katzenberger So yes, in Gaza, big merchants and exchange offices often work in the same way or even are the same people. It’s all one big cycle to keep things moving.

@subtypes I keep hearing stories about PayPal closing Palestinian accounts and confiscating their funds. I don't know if this is true, but I'm not taking any chances, which is why I no longer use PayPal.
-
@katzenberger Yes, that is correct. In many cases, merchants in Gaza do act like exchange offices too.
@mohshbair @katzenberger I wonder how a fellow could become an “exchange office” and undercut those charging very high fees

@izzaboo @katzenberger It would take the trust of your customers, a very very large quantity of Israeli shekel in cash, and the ability to do something out of PayPal money or USDT money or IBAN money, either in the West Bank, in Israel or in Egypt.

@mohshbair @katzenberger Thank you for your reply! Ideas rolling around in my head about non-profit orgs being exchange offices somehow, with international resources. Surely there must be reasons it isn’t happening already. Or it is and I am unaware. It is all so far outside my world I probably have too much to learn.
There is something extra painful about such high fees, although surely money exchangers in Gaza need to survive too.
I budgeted a little money in my next paycheck to send to people who’ve asked on here. I wish more of it would get to where I will send it.

@izzaboo @katzenberger They barely let any aid in. No food. No medicine. Only soldiers and bombs and explosive robots. And they arm gangs and militias.
Most international banks comply with the blockade imposed by the occupation, and they block IBAN transfers to Palestine. The cash crisis is intentional.

Certo, resta da capire perché, con questi sponsor
https://www.python.org/psf/sponsors/
abbia un budget annuale di 5 milioni di USD, perché 750 k facciano quindi tanta differenza, e perché questi li sponsorizzino malgrado non abbiano un sistema di protezione della supply-chain e dei pacchetti del repo principale.
È vero che se riuscissero a fare quei soldi con le donazioni dei singoli avrebbero gli stessi soldi e meno padroni.
Ricordo che il FOSS è gratis ma molto costoso.
Quindi donate, quanto potete.

A 19 anni ero convinto che di lì a poco sarei partito per un tour mondiale con la mia band hard rock.
A 24 rispondevo alle chiamate in un call centre.
Wat de fak is andato storto in quei fatidici 5 anni?

Viaggiatori, è quasi tutto pronto per il mio viaggio a La Gomera (isole Canarie).
Durante il viaggio cercherò di postare foto e pensieri, si Pixelfed, e sul neonato gruppo "Viaggi e Foto" su #Feddit (https://www.feddit.it/c/viaggi).
Ogni giorno scriverò qualcosa, Nun mini blog del giorno, anche sulla sezione dedicata del mio sito:

Restiamo in contatto! 🙂

La targa per Giuseppe Pinelli è stata vandalizzata per la sesta volta
È stata vandalizzata per la sesta volta la targa in ricordo di Giuseppe Pinelli, ferroviere e attivista anarchico morto il 15 dicembre 1969 nei locali della questura di Milano. La targa è posizionata in piazzale Segesta, a San Siro, non lontano dalla sua abitazione.
da https://www.milanotoday.it/politica/vandalizzata-targa-pinelli-ottobre-2025.html
Aggiungo un'altra foto, che nell'articolo non compare, di un cartello apparso questa estate "tra una vandalizzazione e l'altra" che riporto testualmente:
"Giuseppe Pinelli: assassinato e vilipeso. Il Cippo in Piazzale Segesta, in memoria di Giuseppe Pinelli, partigiano-ferroviere-anarchico, ancora una volta è stato vandalizzato per mano della topaia fascista, avvalendosi delle coperture del governo di destra.
Un governo che vuole riscrivere la storia e che utilizza il Decreto "Insicurezza" per reprimere le lotte rivendicative di lavoratori, studenti e movimenti vari.
Una legge bocciata anche dalla Corte di Cassazione, ma l'attuale governo, come già nel ventennio fascista, risponde: "Ce ne freghiamo".
