Cryptocurrency can seem overwhelming at first, but we'll guide you through the entire process step-by-step.
Based on our experience, we recommend donating with cryptocurrency as it tends to be easier and more reliable than wire transfers.
Here's how we'll help you:
- You'll receive detailed email guides walking you through each step of the process
- We recommend beginner-friendly wallets like Edge.app, BlueWallet, and Cake Wallet
- For simplicity, USDT is a "stablecoin" that maintains a stable $1 USD value, making it easy to understand ex: 11,111 USDT = 11,111 USD
Simple process:
This process isn't one-size-fits-all, but these steps have worked well for many of our members. Step 1: Set up a wallet/exchange Try opening an account with these platforms in the following order:
Edge.app (http://edge.app/) (try this first)
Cake Wallet (https://cakewallet.com/)
BlueWallet (https://bluewallet.io/)
Step 2: Fund your account carefully To avoid triggering security flags, fund your wallet/exchange in increments of $4,000 or less rather than all at once.
Step 3: Order a hardware wallet While you're funding your account, order a hardware wallet—I recommend Trezor (https://trezor.io/).
Step 4: Transfer to your hardware wallet Once your exchange/wallet has the necessary funds and your hardware wallet arrives, transfer everything to your hardware wallet.
Step 5: You're ready! With your funds in your hardware wallet, you have complete control and can proceed with your donation whenever you're ready.
We provide comprehensive support throughout this process, and you can always reach out if you need assistance. Many of our members started with zero crypto experience and found it surprisingly straightforward once they got started.
