Help Ukraine with crypto, don’t leave us alone with the enemy
Donate crypto to Ukraine to support people in their fight for freedom
- Aid For Ukraine is powered by Everstake
- Endorsed by the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine
- In partnership with FTX and Kuna
Today, crypto is playing a significant role in Ukraine's defense. Huge thanks to the crypto community for this unprecedented support of Ukraine and its defense of the principles of democracy and freedom in face of the war waged by the Russian Federation.
Alex Bornyakov
the Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine
Aid For Ukraine shows how the global crypto community and the traditional financial system can work together. Crypto donations to the DAO are stored and governed on-chain, then transferred to FTX, a centralized exchange, to be sold for fiat USD sent via SWIFT to the Ukranian government.

co-founder of Solana
I’m very frustrated with Putin’s decision to forgo the opportunity of a peaceful dispute settlement with Ukraine and to start a war instead. It is a crime against the Ukrainian and Russian peoples.
Vitalik Buterin
co-founder of Ethereum (translated from Russian)
Incredibly excited and humbled to be working with the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, Everstake, and others to support crypto donations to Ukraine.
Sam Bankman-Fried
the founder and CEO of FTX
ICON Foundation is joining global community efforts by pledging $1M towards aid and relief for the Ukrainian people. I hope that our technology and community can make a small contribution in this time of need.
Min Kim
founder of ICON
If you post a DOT address I'll personally contribute $5m.

Ukraine needs your help
Ukraine is in the middle of a humanitarian disaster. Hundreds of children have died. Thousands of adults have died. The people will continue their fight for freedom, but they need more ammunition and necessities.
Stand with Ukraine and donate crypto to the fundraising account of the National Bank of Ukraine. The funds will be used for the support of humanitarian aid programs and the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

-
Why did we make this site and how does it work?
-
The crypto community does not want to stand aside and watch Ukrainians suffer from the unprovoked aggression by the Russian Federation and the subsequent humanitarian disaster unseen in Europe since the Balkan war.
Everstake is a Ukraine-based company. We wanted to give the crypto community a viable option to efficiently stand with Ukraine, and thus launched our initiative dubbed Aid For Ukraine.
Aid For Ukraine is cooperating with the cryptocurrency exchange FTX which converts crypto funds received into fiat and sends the donations to the National Bank of Ukraine. This marks the first-ever instance of a cryptocurrency exchange directly cooperating with a public financial entity to provide a conduit for crypto donations.
-
Is it legit?
-
Yes! The initiative is powered by the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, FTX, and Everstake. The founder of Everstake Sergey Vasylchuk has verified the initiative on his Twitter, and so did the Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine Mykhailo Fedorov.
-
How will the funds be used?
-
All funds raised through this effort will go directly towards aiding Ukrainians. The donations will be used to help the Armed Forces of Ukraine as well as Ukrainian civilians in dire need of humanitarian aid.
