Why donate cryptocurrency?

  • It's cost effective.

    Accepting cryptocurrency donations has the potential to save non-profits a lot of money that would have otherwise gone to middlemen organizations such as fiat charitable giving platforms and credit card companies. Cryptocurrency transactions can be low cost, and cut out the need for a middleman to facilitate the transaction. This ensures that less of your donation goes to large, often publicly traded corporations, and more goes directly to the charity.

  • It's super easy.

    Whether through a crypto giving platform, such as The Giving Block or Binance Charity, or by donating directly to a charity by scanning the QR code with their public address, crypto giving has never been easier and more accessible for those who aren’t as experienced with blockchain or making cryptocurrency transactions.

  • It shines a light on the good of cryptocurrency

    Whether we want to believe it or not, there are still many stigmas associated with the cryptocurrency space. Many wrongfully view cryptocurrency as “the currency of criminals,” a “Ponzi scheme,” an “environmental catastrophe,” or a fringe asset only used by a “shadowy group of super coders”. By making a donation with cryptocurrency, it shows these individuals not only that they are wrong, but that there is plenty of good being done in the space.

  • It's a vote for a more transparent system.

    Most cryptocurrencies, by their very nature, are highly transparent, and thus, easily auditable. This makes it much easier for donors to see how much crypto is going into the charity, which can help hold the charity accountable. If donors see a significant amount of funds going to a charity, they expect to see results, and it helps ensure the charity puts the money to good use on meaningful projects.

  • By donating crypto, you support innovation.

    Despite the growing number of non-profits accepting cryptocurrency donations, it’s still a drop in the bucket when looking at the sector as a whole, as the vast majority of non-profits still don’t accept crypto donations. Many see it as inaccessible, don’t understand it, or are worried about the stigmas associated with crypto such as it being “the currency of criminals.” As such, many non-profits will opt to steer clear of crypto for the foreseeable future, despite these stigmas being easily disputable. By donating to those who accept crypto, you are rewarding them for embracing innovation, and for making a decision that, for many non-profits, was a difficult one.

  • There is no shortage of options.

    Gone are the days when you had just a handful or organizations to choose from when looking to donate cryptocurrency. The Giving Block, one of the largest crypto giving platforms, alone supports over 1000 non-profits, universities, and faith-based organizations. This doesn’t include those that accept cryptocurrency donations through another platform or directly. Whether you want your contribution to address homelessness, hunger, gender inclusion, the environment, animal rights, or anything in-between, there is no shortage of options.
