暗号資産による寄付がトルコ・シリア大地震の犠牲者の迅速な救済に貢献
2 月 6 日にトルコとシリアで発生した壊滅的な地震による死者は、現時点で 4 万 7,000 名に上り、世界の多くの人々が無力感を抱いています。このような惨状に加え、両国の政治的緊張によって物流が困難となり、いずれの国の犠牲者も援助を受けることが困難な状況に陥っています。このような規模の人道的危機が発生すると、人々が救援活動に寄付したいと望んでも、どこに寄付したらよいのか分からなくなることが少なくありません。最大の関心事は、どうすれば資金を本当に必要な人にできるだけ早く届けることができるかということです。 このような時勢において、暗号資産は人々への迅速な支援に向け、重要な役割を果たしてきました。例えば、何百万ドルもの暗号資産がウクライナ支援のため提供されています。暗号資産の利用者は、ロシアによるウクライナ侵攻開始直後の 2022 年 3 月 28 日時点で、既に 5,600 万ドル相当以上の暗号資産をウクライナ政府が用意したアドレスに寄付しているほか、デジタル通貨を受け入れる慈善団体への寄付も行っています。トルコ・シリア大地震の犠牲者救済に対しても、暗号資産が同様の役割を果たせる可能性があります。 Chainalysisでは、現在までに約 590 万ドルの寄付が行われたと推定しており、これは暗号資産がいかに国境を超えて資金を送るための実用的な手段であるかということを示しています。資金を受け取った団体には、トルコ内務省地震人道支援キャンペーン、トルコ赤十字社、セーブ・ザ・チルドレン、Project…
