Powering Aid to Ukraine

Stellar Aid Assist in Action

The Stellar Development Foundation, Circle, MoneyGram International, and the Vibrant wallet application have collaborated to launch a novel relief program powered by blockchain technology. Together we’re using Stellar Aid Assist to provide qualified Ukrainians in need with digital aid, specifically the USD Coin (USDC), paid directly to their phones. USD Coin (USDC) is a digital currency that is fully backed by U.S. dollar assets (1 USDC = 1 USD). Eligible Ukrainians can register with a participating relief organization to receive digital relief aid through the Vibrant wallet and get the funds in cash at participating MoneyGram locations.
