The crypto community is stepping up to help victims of the tragic natural disaster in Turkey by opening a multisig wallet on BNB Chain for earthquake support. So far, over $170,000 in donations have been făcut, predominantly in the stablecoin BUSD.
Starul rock turc Haluk Levent a întrebat his 6.7 million Twitter followers if he should open a crypto account for people to deposit donations to the non-governmental and non-profit organization Ahbap, also known as the Dude Association. 82.9% of those responding to the poll selected “open a crypto account, bro.”
Co-founder of web3 analytics platform Lytera, Baki Er, jumped on the idea, apel it “the moment we’ve all been waiting for,” referring to Ahbap as the “most trusted charity in Turkey” and encouraging the community to donate to the multisig. Famous digital artist Murat Pak also offered to help the cause, explaining he was trying to put together an NFT campaign for Turkey and Ahbap.
The tragic 7.5 magnitude cutremur - the worst Turkey has witnessed since 1939 — has also affected Syria, Cyprus, Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, Georgia and Armenia, with over 5,000 dead.
