[[Help Victims of Chile Using Bitcoin]]

in #news8 years ago (edited)

Chile's Bitcoin exchange, SurBTC, is currently setting out a campaign to raise funds for the victims of the huge recent fire.

We can find the message in the blog of SurBTC:

“At the moment, Chile is suffering the greatest forest disaster in its history. More than 250,000 hectares have been burned, according to CONAF.
The fight against this incident continues on all forms. At the moment there are 99 fires counted, of which 51 are already controlled, 34 in combat and 7 extinguished. Currently, there are more than 1,200 firefighters, accompanied by 35 fire units and multiple vehicles of the Army.
The government has declared a state of emergency in several of the sectors affected and the civilian population is already mobilizing to offer all possible help. "“

How can you help?

SurBTC wants to be part of the many solidarity movements that are collecting funds to help those affected, so it is starting a campaign of open donations to everyone.

SurBTC reports that all transactions made for this campaign will have these characteristics:

  • 0% fee on each deposit, withdrawal and transaction in both CLP and BTC.
  • All bitcoins will be converted to Chilean pesos.

SurBTC clarifies that is only helping to raise funds, but will not handle them directly:

"All money raised will be delivered to LevantemosChile Foundation
