What Is Binance Charity?

Binance’s charity, known as Binance Blockchain Charity Fund (BCF), aims to improve the lives of the “bottom billion” population through the power of blockchain technologies. Their goals revolve around accelerating global sustainable development which includes; no poverty, zero hunger, clean water and sanitation, and quality education.

They also wish to increase the transparency related to philanthropic donations. For this reason, Binance BCF has made it possible to track each donation up to the level of which school the donation reaches, like a blockchain explorer.

The charity has already raised over 485 Bitcoin, equaling around $2.5 million, through 317 donors that have reached over 3688 end beneficiaries. Perhaps one of the most eye-opening facts about the benefits of Binance’s charity was at CZ’s Deconomy keynote where he had stated that each BNB donated allows for the funding of 66 days of school for a child, a marvelous feat!
