How to donate to Ukraine with cryptocurrency

Hans @维民之志 has just launched the second crowdfunding here , I hope we can help Ukraine together again. We will donate your support in US dollars to the Ukrainian Red Cross , mainly to help refugees and treat the wounded. This friend @Punkcan cryptoverse mentioned the use of cryptocurrencies in Aunt Sun's article , so I studied it for your reference.

If you have LikeCoin, or other cryptocurrencies, and want to give Ukraine a little support, but don't want to spend the effort to convert it into fiat currency, you can donate directly to the Ukrainian government in the form of cryptocurrency.

I briefly explained how I donated everyone's LikeCoin support to the Ukrainian Red Cross in the form of Ukrainian Red Cross in the small but practical -LikeCoin to fiat currency . To put it simply, you need to transfer LikeCoin to the Keplr wallet, then connect to Osmosis and exchange LikeCoin for the cryptocurrency supported by the decentralized trading platform Kraken, then exchange it for USD and transfer it to the personal account, and finally transfer the money from the personal account to the Red Cross meeting. Is it complicated? yes 😂

but! The Ukrainian government now supports donations in BTC (Bitcoin), ETH (Ethereum) and USDT. If you have the above currencies, you can enter the remittance address from Crypto Wallet, or currency exchanges such as Coinbase and Kraken to complete the transaction. The donation address is as follows, and the source is the Ukrainian government Twitter :

BTC payment address:

357a3So9CbsNfBBgFYACGvxxS6tMaDoa1P

ETH and USDT (ERC-20) receiving address: Note that ETH and USDT must be on the ERC-20 network, otherwise the currency will be lost

0x165CD37b4C644C2921454429E7F9358d18A45e14

If you use Kraken (I guess Coinbase or other currency exchange platforms too), you need to confirm the Email when adding the address above. Just look for the link from Kraken in Email and click Confirm.

What if you ask, I don't have BTC, ETH, or USDT, only LikeCoin? Why don't you entrust it to me, I'll help you donate it~o(*￣▽￣*)ブ

Just kidding, my tutorial is to teach everyone. Cryptocurrency donations are relatively simple. In contrast to dollar donations, this method does not require a personal bank account . Just convert LikeCoin into any of the three government-accepted currencies and paste the above address to complete the transaction.

The following is the specific operation, I use BTC as an example, you can use ETH or USDT. Remember to paste the correct address!

LikeCoin to BTC needs to go through Keplr, Osmosis, and Kraken (Coinbase also works).

1: Transfer LikeCoin from Keplr toOsmosis . Just follow the first five steps of the small but practical-LikeCoin to fiat currency conversion .

2: At Osmosis, exchange LikeCoins into currencies supported by Kraken that can be exchanged for BTC. I use ATOM. (UST is not recommended, because it needs to be transferred to LUNA as a handling fee, and the steps are also complicated)

3: withdraw ATOM to Keplr wallet, check the balance in Cosmos Hub (I am just doing an example, no money §(*￣▽￣*)§)

4: Transfer the corresponding amount of ATOM to Kraken according to steps 10 to 12 of the small but practical--LikeCoin to French currency .

5: Click Trade, select ATOM/BTC market, click Sell, enter the corresponding amount of ATOM, and the order type is market. Transactions should be instant.

6: After converting to BTC, you can go to the Funding window, withdraw, add the payment address of the Ukrainian government, pay, complete!

Write on the back: If you do not want to donate directly to the Ukrainian government, but want to help refugees and the wounded, you can support Hans and me with LikeCoin within 48 hours, and we will count the amount. I will also send out donation details and thanks within three days of the donation deadline.

Ukraine, you have our back!
