Roger Ver and online auction platform Charitystars have managed to raise $87,000 for website Antiwar.com. The winner of the auction won a private lunch with Roger Ver, one of the original investors of Bitcoin. Antiwar.com is a portal that promotes peace and non-interventionalism.

Charitystars was founded in 2013 in Milan, Italy. The online auction offers people a chance to bid cryptocurrency on meetings with celebrities, rare artwork and luxury cars. Proceeds are donated to charities all over the world.

Charitystars founders said they were pleasantly surprised with the result. Reportedly, a lunch with former Italian president Silvio Berlusconi was auctioned for the same $87,000.

With the phenomenal expansion of the crypto-space and the unprecedented opportunity to direct that energy in support of pivotal causes in a manner that is genuinely revolutionary We are glad Roger Ver accepted our invitation to generously support this remarkable cause, Charitystars Francesco Nazari Fusetti explained.

Roger Ver was stunned by the results and commented:

As the blockchain community continues to grow it is important that we dont lose sight of the most serious issues affecting the world today Having long believed that bitcoin has the power to halt conflict and war, I am honored to leverage my experience and expertise in the industry for a cause dedicated to this.

Roger Ver is the CEO of Bitcoin.com and one of the most vocal supporters of cryptocurrency Bitcoin Cash. Ver believes that Bitcoin is no longer the peer-to-peer electronic cash as originally envisioned by creator Satoshi Nakamoto.
