Binance co-founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao has contributed a significant sum of cryptocurrency to aid earthquake relief efforts in both Thailand and Myanmar. His donation, totaling nearly $600,000 worth of BNB tokens, comes after the region experienced devastating earthquakes on March 28th, causing extensive damage and flooding. His initial pledge of 500 BNB was doubled following a subsequent appeal for support. The crypto donations are helping to address critical needs in the region due to infrastructure damage affecting traditional banking operations. Zhao’s donation is an example of blockchain technology’s potential as a faster and more efficient method for providing aid, particularly during emergencies.
