Title: The Ukrainian government now accepts DOT donations
Post by: cheezcarls on March 01, 2022, 01:59:01 PM
I think this is a great decision by the Ukrainian government by not limiting themselves to accepting BTC, ETH and USDT20 alone. It’s better to have multiple options since there are so many cryptocurrencies in the market right now.

This could be the real reason on why they do it: https://cryptoslate.com/polkadots-gavin-wood-to-donate-5m-to-ukraine-if-they-post-a-dot-address/

As Ukraine government already legalized cryptocurrencies, they are one of the crypto-friendliest countries in Europe right now before the Russian invasion started.

Kudos to Polkadot’s Gavin Wood for being a generous person willing to help out financially.

yeah , I also heard about it. The Ukraine government accept crypto as donation.
I think It will have good effect for crypto currency.
I personally hope the war will end  soon and everything will be okay.
Peace is more important for our life.
But every government have own consideration.

I also really appreciate the quick response of Polkadot coins to the crisis in Ukraine with Polkadots being given away for free and this is a very good symbol of humanity..
I think Gavin Wood is enough to give away his many Polkadot coins so that he can generate enough finances for the crisis in Ukraine and congrats for the Polkadot coins being accepted in the Ukrainian community.

It's great to see Ukraine embracing the crypto space and being one of the most crypto-friendly countries in Europe. Also, kudos to Gavin Wood from Polkadot for his generous financial support.

Calls from the crypto community for Ukraine to accept other cryptocurrencies have been answered. The official Ukraine Twitter account shared that it will now accept donations from Polkadot DOT.

while other cryptocurrencies will soon be added.

First, I don't want to take sides in Russia or Ukraine because the war only results in losses from various factors.
Second, donations from Polkadot coins really make Polkadot a good coin that can help all human beings for good in the world.
Third, this will be the best marketing for the Polkadot coin because it is not immediately visible to everyone in the world outside of cryptocurrency if the Polkadot coin donates 5 million USD.

Fourth, I have read the website but there are still people who hate that it is marketing Polkadot coins and that donations should use Ethereum.
Hey bro, Gavin Wood is the one who created the Polkadot coin and he has a supply of Polkadot coins for him to own or become a future asset or as in this thread, namely donate.
So, it's up to Gavin Wood to donate using Polkadot coins or whatever, but what is clear is that we have to look at the positive side, namely donations. Come on friends, we have to think more clearly about someone's goodness.

This is pretty cool to get donations by dot, because crypto is innovative and have a good technology background.

Totally agree with you, this is just a Win-Win relationship, and the fact that Ukraine has more money to restore infrastructure, take care of the people, those are good things that DOT funding provided.

Charity has always been a popular way to promote brands, as long as it's appropriate and beneficial for everyone. With the idea and the donation, Polkadot deserves to be promoted to crypto users as a means of promoting financial freedom and expressing the love of peace.

It also depends, friend, if what you donate are trash coins then they definitely won't be valuable.
But because this is a Polkadot coin that is being donated, it will definitely feel very valuable to the people of Ukraine.
Apart from cryptocurrency coins, Ukrainian citizens can also receive assistance from various sectors, maybe we can donate iron, copper, gold etc.
As long as the donation is in the form of valuable assets, it is certain that the people in Ukraine will accept it happily because when there is a war like this it is difficult for them to even eat.

That's true, DOT is valuable coin, I think Ukraine could use this coin to restore their infrastructure.
I believe almost all people at the world didn't agree about war.
I think both, Ukraine and Russia should have good negotiations for peace.

It seems like those who hate Gavin Wood are people who don't like that the Polkadot coin continues to develop and increase in price, so whatever the Polkadot coin does cannot be accepted by society.
They also definitely hate every step taken by the Polkadot coin and this is what makes me sure because their statement is like not liking Gavin Wood.
This is a charity for fellow humans when they are oppressed by the ferocity of the war in Ukraine due to the Russian invasion, those who make donations also don't mind that their Polkadot coins are given for free and this is something extraordinary and the value is huge, Millions of USD.

there will always be against everything mate , look how stupid those people asking that the donation should be in Ethereum when the donor comes from Polkadot , this is how we must not listen or give importance to what they may say for the community , instead in this kind of War  ? Help is in need in every form no matter what ir where this comes from what important is the help this may bring to the reciever .

I agree with you, help is in need in every form .
We can help in polkadot or Ethereum , maybe others.
It's a bout the War.
No one agree in War.
We want peaceful in our life.
But If there donation in DOT, and we can donate, give it.
But, hopefully this war will end soon

If in my position in Gavin Wood, maybe I will not be that simple, he is able to provide Polkadot coin assets only for donations to millions of USD.
The generous character owned by Gavin Wood will not be imitated by me and it is truly extraordinary to help those who are fighting.
This will make the Polkadot coin rise in rating if the Polkadot coin has been donated to a conflict country.
War must end, don't let any more war like this, we must live peacefully together.

Correct , war is war they need help no matter what form it is , either crypto or cash , either food or other things what is important is the thought of giving when someone is in need.

and also correct that this war must End , it runs for years now and the people are suffering and not the government.
