How will the crypto donations help the Ukraine Cyber Police?
The donations will be used for purchasing medicines, basic necessities and to offer medical care for victims of Russian attacks. Right from the beginning of the Russian Ukraine conflict, Ukraine officials and authorities have been seeking financial assistance in multiple ways.
The Ukrainian Government has been raising funds via cryptocurrency donations, and have already received around $60.5 million in Bitcoin, USDT Tether, Ether and other virtual currencies. The donations were raised via a Decentralized Autonomous Organization, UkraineDAO which raised $6.5 million by auctioning the NFT of the Ukrainian flag.
These donations have facilitated Ukraine with the volunteer groups like Come Back Alive as well. Similarly the donations for Ukraine Cyber Police will be used for the victims of the war and for other high priority medical cases.
