Munch COO, Mike Si said of the announcement:
“We’re starting a new movement that encourages established and emerging players in the crypto space to give back and help others in a very simple way; it can be one-off donations, or a % automated from project fees and operations. Funds will be processed in a trustless manner through our on-chain contracts to support great causes, making MUNCH a hub for all crypto giving.
These initial partnerships are the start of a major step forward for the adoption of cryptocurrencies into more mainstream use.”
This initiative enables crypto projects to donate automatically and trustlessly to accredited and vetted charitable causes. By leveraging the technology and status of MUNCH, giving back can become part of any project. Donations will be routed to MUNCH charity partners at the time, chosen by its community from an approved short list.
