Binance to issue up to $100 USD in BNB to registered users in the Hurricane-Impacted Acapulco Region

2023-10-31

In response to the devastation caused by the recent Hurricane Otis in Acapulco, Mexico and the surrounding area, Binance Charity will issue up to $100 USD in BNB token vouchers to registered Binance users identified as living in the areas affected by the tragedy. 

Identification of the users will be based on Proof of Address (POA) completed on and before October 25, 2023, in Acapulco, Guerrero State, which has suffered the most significant impact. Users who have completed POA before this date in Acapulco will each receive $100 USD in BNB token vouchers in their Rewards HUb.

We recognize that many users in the affected area of Acapulco may not have yet completed POA. Therefore, for any existing user who completes POA after October 25, 2023 and before November 25, 2023, we will issue $25 USD in BNB token vouchers to their accounts.

The funds will start reaching users on November 1, 2023.

In the aftermath of natural disasters, people often lose access to traditional banking at the exact moment when extra funds are needed to help cover medical supplies, food, and other essential needs.

Crypto transfers are now increasingly being used to deliver financial aid to disaster victims as they provide fast, low-cost, borderless, and transparent transactions.

In these difficult times, Binance stands by our users, and we will continue to work on additional ways to help our community in Mexico.
