> I don't know how to best support her. Any suggestions? My guess would be to donate to her. Near the bottom of the page is a BTC address (please check it yourself): https://sci-hub.do/ https://sci-hub.do/ https://sci-hub.st/ https://sci-hub.st/ https://sci-hub.se/ https://sci-hub.se/ All the domains have the same address for me: 12PCbUDS4ho7vgSccmixKTHmq9qL2mdSns Money (and Bitcoin is among the freest money) can be used on whatever she needs.

Just donated, thanks for the tip! (and for anyone wondering, yes that BTC address is correct, I triple-checked).

  Thanks for checking but probably best if everyone double checks for themselves too.

Cool! Never used bitcoin, but that may be the first time if I figure out how to do it.

  Me either. I took this opportunity to take the plunge. I had a Coinbase account already from years ago but never linked it to any payment source. At the time the only options were my bank account, which didn't sit well with me. Now PayPal is an option, which is also linked to my bank account, but the one level of indirection made me a bit less hesitant. Also, the combination of Coinbase and PayPal seems low(er) risk to me.

    Just FYI coinbase will ban you for "illegal" transactions which may include "copyright infringement"

      ISPs make the same claim.

I was idly curious about the account state, so went digging for visualization tools. Most of them have nice designs and not very much info :) but - https://mempool.space/address/12PCbUDS4ho7vgSccmixKTHmq9qL2mdSns https://mempool.space/address/12PCbUDS4ho7vgSccmixKTHmq9qL2m... shows a presumably-USD$ amount next to each transaction - https://explorer.bitquery.io/bitcoin/address/12PCbUDS4ho7vgSccmixKTHmq9qL2mdSns/graph https://explorer.bitquery.io/bitcoin/address/12PCbUDS4ho7vgS...

  All together she made 250,000 over the lifetime of that address.

    At today's BTC price, or price at the time of receiving it? (The latter would be the most appropriate measure, I'd think. Or maybe use the price at the price when she spent it, though that would incorporate the result of her speculating on BTC, in a sense.)

  She only has $40k of BTC in her account :( I know it’s a lot, but legal fees eat up so much. Hopefully she can win the case without sacrificing her entire savings too.
