Russian people do not want war.
Ukranian people do not want war.
People from Belarus do not want war.
Therefore at the end of the day we have to understand that it's the sick political situation that makes everything worse for people that they end up in a horrible situation. I had to run from Ukraine 3 days back from Ivano frankivsk and stand on the border for hours before they let me in with my 2 cats. What Russia is doing is horrible. All my savings, my house that I rent everything is now gone. I do hope people continue to make sure gracious donations because Ukraine does need it. NATO is not going to help and WW3 can be there any moment, I literally do not know what's going to happen now.

hearing your story, it really breaks my heart, may god safe you...

only mentally ill people want chaos, everyone wants to live peacefully and without tension. binance is very generous in making donations with that much money, hopefully, it will be useful for war victims. I also continue to pray for the members of this forum who are from Ukraine or Russia, may all of you stay in the protection of god.

Yes I also read this news previous day and I think this is really a good step. Like FTX given 25$ to every Ukrainian.
We are all looking that crypto is helping the people a lot.

The key objective behind the FTX Token is charity. It has been doing it partnering with different charity organisations. Now it has got an opportunity to directly involve into charity providing every individual with $25. No one could've thought cryptocurrency will help at such a situation. Now more firms have added cryptocurrency addresses to its GoFundMe and patreon accounts.

The goal on the site is $20,018,837.15 looks like Binance will donate 10 million but to deliver the money they are looking to get another $10M as donations. They already get $5M but they haven't delivered anything. If they really want to help they should donate the $10M and stop asking for donations. This is a tricky move while they use the war for marketing.

Donation fundraising or allocation is not too hard. Binance can use their budget for donation and it will be done quickly. Donation fundraising can hit target quickly too. Unfortunately, with the escalating war, lots of damages on infrastructures for transportations, etc. in Ukraine and also risk of mistakenly damages by the war from both sides, donation distributions by any mean would be difficult and can not be done too soon.

Binance and some big exchanges are doing good things to help Ukrainians as well as to wisely advertise their exchanges to people over the world.

Well, Im excited with the movement of Binance and their supporting fund for Ukraine. We all know this is about the humanitarian, but the real question is. Why all people didn't care when Palestine is bombed by Israel. They killed many people out there, from old to baby. They destroy many mosques and houses even the hospital. Why nobody cares about it? PPB make an urgent meeting to find solution for Russia and Ukraine, but They dont care with Palestine and others Islamic countries.

a great move from Binance. I just hope the donated money would actually get to the people who need it and not just to the people who will steal it. I've seen too many instances in my corrupt government where the donated money doesn't get to the people but to the corrupt officials.

10 million is a lot of money even if for binance that is already a top exchange, they also earned that money in a hard way so I don't think they will feel good the same as we feel just because the news looks positive as it about helping the other country and the medium that they use is crypto. Don't worry mate but the money could surely go to the right people because we can see how Ukrainian move or their government is not as bad as others out there.

Let us not compare our corrupt government to theirs because the gap is too far away. Next time if you know that your local officials are corrupt, you should have handed the money directly on the people that need it.

I am happy that the exchange Binance and Vitalik is giving humanitarian attention and donations in solidarity with Ukraine, also I am concerned about the tensions of the Russia-Ukraine war because many people in Ukraine have to take shelter in subway stations all day out of fear and they hardly ever see the sun.

But we also see the bloodshed that took place in Palestine in the eternal war without end, Do they also deserve donations and attention from important people of the crypto community, regardless of differences in religion, ethnicity, and nationality.

I'm not very focused right now, but I think I didn't find a topic about this. Forgive me if it was already posted. Binance announced on Twitter that they're donating $10 million to express their support with Ukraine. They are now gathering donations for the Ukraine Emergency Relief Fund here. The usage of cryptocurrencies and crypto businesses are starting to become relevant in the ongoing Russian invasion. Fewer and fewer areas are holding their apolitical stance, even if they used to be apolitical before. I wonder who will be next. It's interesting how Buterin will react, given that he's originally from Russia.

Crypto definitely has it's place in wartime as it bypasses traditional banking systems and currencies, however, when there aren't many options to turn that crypto into real-life things (food, etc..) then it, unfortunately, falls short. This is not the case here, Binance is donating in dollars and that will go a long way, but it does urge everyone to push for more crypto acceptance and options in peacetime because those options will have to function in the event of war. Anyway, a great initiative from the Binance leadership.

In a few days, the fascist government of Ukraine will be overthrown and all your donations will disappear and end up in the pockets of thieves and scammers.
All your donations will not reach honest people!

At least deep inside their Heart the thought of Helping is there , it is not about the funds will be corrupted or to the Thieves but the idea of them helping others the way they can.

and besides how can you be so sure about Ukraine falling towards the invasion ? remember that almost the world country are supporting them for their stand?
Thanks to Binance for this Great Help because other than everything it is the Help that Ukraine needs now and not opposition or something like that.

I'm thinking that you are in favor of this Invasion ?

Ukraine is now in dire need of any practical support, as the Russians are shelling residential buildings, civilian infrastructure, killing women and children. To date, 352 civilians of Ukraine have been killed, including 24 children.
But the Ukrainians did not give up a single large city. The equipment of the Russians, which breaks through, it is almost immediately destroyed not only by the armed forces of Ukraine, but also by the civilian population with “Molotov cocktails”.

During the four days of the war, the Ukrainians destroyed about 5,300 invaders, 191 tanks, 29 combat aircraft, 29 attack helicopters, 816 armored vehicles, 74 cannons, 21 Grad multiple rocket launchers, 291 vehicles.
Russia has never had such losses. Russia is on the verge of collapse - economic, military and political. Putin's regime miscalculated by attacking Ukraine.

It's interesting to see that a business led by a Chinese man extended their support to Ukraine! The matter of fact is, China is just as same as Russia. People from Taiwan and Hong Kong knows that as they are being ruled by Chinese government for the benefit of the mainland China. I wonder if CZ will come out and offer a similar type of donation in future if China engages into a full-scale war with Taiwan. Also it's important to note that China is one of the closest allies of Russia. So CZ must have given enough thought before announcing this donation because it will not make China very happy and CZ may never be able to enter China if Chinese government takes this donation seriously.

No one wants war! But I am happy to see finally EU has decided to throw Russia out of the Swift network and also putting a ban on Russian Oligarchs who supplies money to Putin.

Well I think that was the worst political decision that they could have made, because that will paint a target on their business for Russian Hackers to hack Binance now. We know the Russia hackers are some of the best in the world and we know Binance is one of the biggest Exchanges in this world. Roll Eyes

I support a world without WAR, because nobody win in a WAR.... but I am not going to paint a target on my business's back.. by angering Russian hackers. Angry

At this time it's not important that crypto will gain good promotion with these helping and Binance would be more popular in the market as it is already but the fact that providing financial support to Ukrainian government for defence and fulfilling basic amenities of the people residing there as it's really tough time for them.It is good to see people, governments,crypto donations are coming in their support and they need it at this time.So nice gesture by CZ by giving out even it benefits him later on.

A gesture like this shows the world's support for Ukraine. As a result of Russia's invasion, the support for Ukraine has continued to grow internationally. Additionally, Binance not only donated $10 million to Ukraine's humanitarian effort, but also launched the Binance Charity Fund for Ukraine Emergency Relief. A crypto-first crowdfunding site will further assist in Ukraine's aid. With the crypto money industry also not sitting idle, which made experts more worried about worse cases. In Ukraine and its surrounding countries, the funds will help support displaced children and families.

It's a good example but again the fund is central and people can't check how the donation money is used, I was expecting a multi-signature address but what is done is the database management by binance.charity/

Cryptocurrencies have many uses, and it is good that helping people is one of them. times is changing.

this will be the concern here because even that this is a support to the Ukrainian government yet this must be publicized and should be in knowledge of every people in Ukraine because in the end of war the funds must be spent wisely and not to he on Hold of some people in Upper position .

remember that this is crypto and can be kept without the official statement from the receiver .

__________________________________________________

But whatever the outcome still this is a Good start for Binance to urge other entities to Give support to Ukraine as they are facing one of the darkest part of their lives .

A very honorable act from boss CZ. War is a disease. But at the moment, crypto is becoming official currencies on a cross-border scale. While donations to the people of Ukraine in cryptocurrency are receiving a warm reception from all over the earth. A recent a report by blockchain Elliptic the Ukraine government received more than 8 million dollars from crypto. After this war, countries will definitely reconsider the really important role of bitcoin.

I've watched an interview on Buterin days ago and there was a passing question regarding Russia's incursion of Ukraine. I cannot remember Vitalik's exact words but in general he wasn't in favor of it.

It feels great that Bitcoin has now taken a different image this time. For sure the public's perception of Bitcoin will now be gradually changed with it being more and more used in times of crisis, with the huge Bitcoin donation to the Canadian truckers to the Ukrainian fight for freedom and its humanitarian struggles.

A nice gesture by Binance one of cryptocurrencies biggest exchange for donating $10 million for humanitarian aid and started a crypto crowd funding geared toward assisting the Ukrainians, this is indeed a welcome development and will go a long way in alleviating some of their problems, kudos to Binance for this sole assistance with all indications this aid will project crypto positively globally consequently triggering more adoption of bitcoin by the Ukrainians who had never use it before, Binance should kindly make donations to other war-torn countries who are in need of humanitarian aids.

The great gesture from binance has now triggered great gesture from the crypti community around the globe, this is what crypto meant to be , it's the real people power as nobody can really interupt it no matter how , it's totally neutral! Let's shows to the world that what a freedom is really look like .

We are in the correct community , crypto is here to support each other without any intervention.

Binance has been showing these charitable initiatives for years already.
This is why a lot of people are trusting this exchange and their reputation is also good in this community.
They have their resources, and it is great that they are allotting some of their profits to the needy people.
And good thing about crypto is they can send it to anywhere in the world without too much restrictions.
