Polygon launches crypto donation platform for Nepal flood relief, raising $168K at launch.

Following devastating floods in Nepal caused by a glacier collapse, Polygon co-founder Sandeep Nailwal launched nepalrelief.org to channel multi-chain cryptocurrency donations directly to Nepal’s Prime Minister Disaster Relief Fund. The platform raised about $168,000 by launch day and uses Polygon’s Open Money Stack to convert donations into USDC, ensuring transparency and auditability on-chain. The funds are then converted to Nepalese rupees and transferred to the government via trusted partners. This initiative builds on Nailwal’s prior experience with crypto relief efforts during India’s COVID-19 crisis, aiming to provide efficient and transparent disaster aid.
