What to Expect from Binance Talks: Charity and Blockchain for Good
We’re pleased to announce Benzinga staff writer and cryptocurrency vertical manager Logan Ross as the host for the session. Logan is a computer scientist and has been in the cryptocurrency space since 2014. He’s contributed to Benzinga since 2020, a leading financial publication for retail traders based in Detroit, Michigan. He’ll be taking you through four different topics in the live session with our invited guests.
How blockchain is reshaping philanthropy
The event’s first discussion will examine blockchain’s pivotal role in reshaping philanthropy. Our guests will look at the current challenges charitable organizations face in terms of trust and how blockchain benefits the sector.
Also on the agenda is a quick dive into the UNDP’s latest report, Cryptocurrency in Africa: Alternative Opportunities for Advancing the Sustainable Development Goals?
Innovative blockchain-based social solutions
Next, we’ll discuss some real-world examples of successful blockchain-based social projects and their impact on communities in need. Our guest from Mercy Corp Ventures will also explain how crypto solutions and funding have empowered their work so far.
Joining us for the discussion will be Mercy Corps Ventures Web3 Lead and Head of Pilots Kenneth Kou, along with Binance Charity Deputy Director Elizabeth Li.
Using blockchain as a financial inclusion tool
One of blockchain’s most powerful aspects is its ability to improve financial inclusion. Not everyone can access the traditional financial system, and crypto technology can help fill this gap. For those in need, blockchain provides a quick and direct way of accessing funds where needed.
Sharing their thoughts on the topic will be Binance Charity Deputy Director Elizabeth Li, along with another guest speaker.
Tech services bringing the charity sector to the Web3 world
Crypto transactions haven’t always been easy for newcomers or the general public to make. Nowadays, there are several solutions to simplify them and ensure lower transaction fees, so more of the money goes directly to those who need it most. Beyond exploring these use cases, we’ll also discuss what else is needed to increase the number of non-profits benefiting from Web3 technologies.
Discussing the topic will be UNICEF Luxembourg’s Innovative Finance Officer Yannick Naud alongside a guest speaker.
Crypto Box and free meals giveaway
By paying close attention to the discussed topics and the Binance Charity info session, you could have the opportunity to share in $4,000 of crypto. Simply listen in and answer the questions in our Crypto Box giveaway quiz.
Binance Charity will also donate up to $3,000 worth of free meals, with one meal provided for every ten viewers.
