Crypto Giving Tuesday, is a unique opportunity to engage new donors, to explore crypto loving causes to support and to get involved with a worldwide giving movement. Now is the time to participate in Bitcoin Tuesday!

Why is Bitcoin Tuesday Important?

Cryptocurrency is one of the fastest-growing donation methods. There are over 101+ Million cryptocurrency users most of them between the ages of 20 to 40. These cryptocurrency users are holding cryptocurrency as an asset for the long term.

Cryptocurrency is classified as a property, just like stocks. Once crypto users have held onto the assets for over a year they are the most incentivized to bypass the capital gains tax by donating crypto to nonprofits. The end of the year is when accepting cryptocurrency donation matters most because of the tax incentive.

Bitcoin Tuesday brings together all the right people to drive cryptocurrency donors to nonprofits who accept cryptocurrency donations resulting in millions of dollars being raised for worthy causes around the world.
