 i think one of the ways is for people to adopt cryptocurrencies as their means of payment , being a digital currency users wont have contact with any currency notes which is a way of contracting the virus. so if every transaction as well as payment for goods and services are done with digital assets then it will help prevent spread of the virus.

Recently, TokenPocket has hosted a WeWearMask event to call on the community's joint effort in the fight against the Corona virus.
https://twitter.com/TokenPocket_TP/status/1246791435103293441
The participants will be prized with a  total of $2,300 and more. I think this is a good move to set up an example of how the crypto world can help to stop the virus. More projects should be doing this as well.
Surely that a great initiative taken by tokenPocket as it raises awareness among the community about the ongoing pandemic situation. But to be honest I don’t think this is necessary as governments of various counties are already doing this in a much efficient way.

So, instead of hosting that event and giving out the rewards to the community, that money can be lent out to provide medical services, equipment and to the people who are actually in need. I would say that this is more of a publicity tactic that is being used by the project then actually trying to help the world fight coronavirus (covid-19).

Some crypto exchanges like Binance and Kucoin already supported nations with masks and sanitizers to combat covid19. Also origin protocol and pledgecamp in their own little ways organized a crowdfunding event to provide masks too. If people stop circulating FIAT money from person to person (not digital transfers), and opt for crypto transactions, I think it will also go a long way to curb the spread of COVID19.
Many other crypto companies might also doing some program to help in theirs subordinates, They can donate in their government or do their own way of doing some relief operations or providing test kits which is common in some companies here in my country, their help can also be their way to be known that their company exist if they do noble donations.  For me as long as they took care of their employees and still keeping to sustain their business its enough, since many lose jobs and sadly many companies were closed. Hopefully,it wil not happen in crypto companies, for many they provide services for faster and safe transactions since we can do transacting without going place to avoid covid.

It is better for each project to provide targeted charitable assistance than to produce immune medicines themselves but the testing system is still in doubt by the community. I really appreciate every crypto project that contributes against covid-19 because it proves that the crypto community has a very high social concern for others.
Of course that is the most appropriate step where a project raises charity funds at each event they participate in.  I am often active on Twitter and often see the Binance exchange sending hundreds of thousands of masks to every country that has experienced the Covid-19 disaster.  I think other projects can mimic the steps taken by Binance Charity.

This is a great campaign initiation on their part and they're encouraging people to wear mask. That's a good reminder because, despite lockdown, there are people who are still insisting not to wear a mask. A reminder that can greatly be seen by Twitter users and that's how they can contribute to fight against covid19.
Did you join the campaign?
Spreading awareness is a great thing I agree. But government has already done that. People don’t need some bounty campaign to understand that not wearing a mask could cost them their life. Instead of seeking attention and publicity, they could’ve simply donated the amount for helping the needy instead of distributing it amongst the event participants just like Binance donated $1,000,000 in $BUSD to fight against the covid-19 pandemic.

The people who still aren’t wearing mask are risking their own life and others even after knowing the consequences so instead of organizing awareness events, initiatives must be taken to penalize them heavily instead.

This was a really great initiative on how crypto world can help to promote wearing mask on people specially during this quarantine. This just make it a point that crypto world cannot just help when it comes to funding to support projects on how we can fight back against the infectious disease which is the covid-19 pandemic. With the prize pool being inserted on the campaign, surely there would be many participants that will be joining and that could lead to a massive promotion of wearing mask which can encourage many people to do the same thing. This event will surely gain massive acknowledgement and promotion to help the government and health care officials to give awareness on the importance of wearing mask at this time of pandemic.

But I think instead of baiting prize pool to gain many participants to join the campaign, this campaign must just serve to be a crowd funding event and the money gathered will be donated on the hospitals to eventually help them for funding since it is also one of the greatest problem being faced by healthcare facilities since they are already lacking of funds to buy equipments to fight against covid-19.

There are a lot of similar projects, it's hard to say which one really works.
Indeed, according to one of the data, immunomodulating drugs, if used improperly, can disrupt the immune system and cause it to attack its own cells.
It is best to donate money to vaccine development organizations and those that are struggling with the effects of the epidemic.

That's right, rather than making a project it's better to donate directly to organizations engaged in the distribution aid to covid victims. But we also have to be careful, because now many fake organizations are acting in the name of charities.

I heard that some companies began to use blockchain technologies to fight with the corona virus, but how exactly blockchain technologies will be used I don’t know, also many cryptocurrency companies and exchanges transfer their money to help the victims of the corona virus and to fight against the corona virus.

Maybe right now, transferring the money to the company which is works to find the vaccine will be necessary because they can continue their jobs until they can found the vaccine. But if that project can gather huge money from the investor, and they will share the money to that company, then that will be like a humanity step which can help the company get a chance to find the right formula for the vaccine.

Not only for transferring money. If  They have plan to open a company which can be helpful in terms of having more jobs , the good thing about this is they can accept many new employer not as regular job but in online job  That will help prevent the disease from spreading further. Employees can also avoid socializing with other people if you can work at home.
True! In the pandemic situation, working remotely is the requirement for most people. The cryptocurrency world although can't do much about curing the disease but can provide a way of earning money online. In that way, people can stay at home and making money without interacting with others (which helps social distancing). Furthermore, it offers people a way to make some money while in the pandemic if they have been laid off.

Cryptocurrency projects are doing that possible best to joining effort in fighting this common enemy that threatens humanity. Binance made some good donations, and some others are on the forefront on sensitizing their various community. There is a project called Shengworld which produced some immune booster product that can help the body resist this disease.

They do have a good idea with their campaign. With this campaign they will be able to create more and more awareness for people to start wearing masks and stay safe. Apart from this kind of campaign, the cryptocurrency community can as well be making donations to support the fight against the Covid-19 outbreak.

There are some charity organizations like red cross that are legit that are accepting Bitcoin as a payment method, would be a good idea if a lot of people donates to these charity organizations using bitcoin, and that way they will get to know that the cryptocurrency community are out to help, and such will help to even get cryptocurrency to be more recognized.

Creating a coin right now will not work because for sure, less investors will invest on it since they need cash right now and not a shitty token that can be a possible scam attempt.

Right now the best way for crypto to help right now against the virus is to converting it into our own local currency and donate it to the those who are in need. Right now, I'm saving a percentage of my weekly payments in my current signature campaign and donating it to the right people so that at least I can share my blessings to them. This is for me the best way to help those in need.

Don't invest in the tokens or new projects that are intended for the virus because 99.9% that it is a scam attempt. Too bad there are still newbie noob investors who are investing on it.

Its a good way to remind us how important to wear mask. Other people are not taking it seriously and keep on going outside without any protection for themselves to prevent getting infected.

World Health Organization told that mask is not needed for everyone and they only insisted social distancing to reduce the demand for mask but recently they told its better to wear mask by everyone whenever they go outside that maybe the reason why many people confused about wearing masks.
Well I remember a doctor once told that its not necessary to wear a mask if you're a healthy person or dont have cough or colds. But its better to be careful especially nowadays that you cant see the virus, well prevention is better than cure.

It's a scam, there are currently many new projects created with the idea of fighting corona virus. Obviously blockchain is not against this disease, if we want to fight it then we need vaccines. That is why large projects and large exchanges in this market are supporting health organizations by donate FIAT

It's good to see the involvement of cryptocurrency in helping people during the pandemic. Binance had donated a huge amount of money to help fight against cryptocurrency and I hope that this will inspire other projects to get involved not just on awareness, but also to help other people especially those who are in the 3rd world country who needs medical professionals and supplies.

Crypto world is really doing something with regards to the pandemic. Binance for one has a charity program which donates $1 million already.

Binance
@binance
The donation of $1,000,000 in $BUSD has been made:

And regarding your questions, I guess the best way is to donate on organizations that accepts crypto. Just be careful though, there are a lot of fake websites that impersonates charitable institutions.

I have seen this, in which Binance Exchange donates millions of dollars to help to fight the Covid19 and I guess not only Binance doing it. AFAIK, Binance donating money like what happened in Australia which they also donated. For me, in this current situation of the world, the cryptocurrency becomes powerful like you can donate some funds even if you are at home and aside from that, it is the safest way to donate because we all know that virus can transfer through cash(fiat). This is our biggest problem if we are donating cryptocurrency cause there are still scammers who want to steal it, and I have a thread about this which they impersonated WHO to get the crypto donation.

But for me, the helpful thing we can do right now is to donate some cryptocurrency and promote some fundraising so that others can also be aware of these existing donations.
