Hi, thanks for your contributions, great to see things moving! :-)
Well, I think opening an US bank account is problematic at least from the time perspective, but maybe also from a legal PoV - our association might not be eligible to do so, as we are accredited in Germany and have special tax rules applied here.

Is the TDF an NGO. If its based in the EU the organization can possibly get a lot of funding from the EU itself.
