The Giving Block Reports Stablecoin Donations are on the Rise
Summary
The cryptocurrency fundraising platform The Giving Block released its 2025 annual report indicating a significant increase in donations made using stablecoins, marking them as one of crypto philanthropy's fastest-growing channels. The platform facilitated over $100 million in total crypto donations, with more than $32 million coming from stablecoins such as USDC, RLUSD, USDT, and DAI. Notably, $25 million in RLUSD may have originated from Ripple Labs' pledge to DonorsChoose and Teach For America. This trend is supported by the US payment stablecoin bill signed into law in 2025, which granted stablecoins "cash-equivalent" status, alleviating solvency concerns for nonprofits and eliminating volatility risks. Givepact, another platform, confirmed that stablecoins have rapidly become the top donated asset in the sector, a trend expected to accelerate with the new legislation in place. The Giving Block projects up to $2.5 billion in total crypto donations for 2025.
