Vitalik Buterin Donates Another $100M to Fund Covid Relief Projects

In a rare good news story this week, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin revealed that, along with Polygon’s Sandeep Nailwal, he has pledged another $100 million for Covid relief. On June 9, Buterin said he and Sandeep “discussed and jointly concluded these and other projects are high-impact and need follow-through grants.” Buterin said that Crypto Relief has put in $90 million USDC from his original SHIB donation, and he is adding a further $10 million from his own funds. Vitalik donated 50 trillion SHIB tokens to the project in May 2022. Crypto Relief is a project started by Buterin and Nailwal to provide long-term strategic funding.
