After the earthquake disaster that occurred on February 6, 2023 and affected 10 of our provinces, many aid organizations organized donation campaigns to repair the damage in the region and to support the earthquake victims.
Support and donations were made from all over the world to official government institutions and NGOs such as AFAD, Kızılay, Ahbap. With the initiative of the Web3 Technologies Association and blockchain communities, a signature campaign was launched yesterday. In the petition launched, more than 40 blockchain entities in the country signed a petition requesting the authorities to create official crypto wallets where they can accept donations.
After this development, many charities and NGOs created crypto wallets for crypto money aid from within the country and around the world. Leading crypto asset platforms such as BtcTurk and Paribu have led these organizations to create crypto wallets. Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) and Tether (USDT) wallets were created by BtcTurk for AFAD, Support to Life, Lider, TOG and Kızılay.
