Meanwhile, the decision to accept crypto is due to the previous US administration ending funding for UN food assistance in 14 countries, including Afghanistan, Syria, and Yemen. UN officials have since warned that this loss of support could put millions of lives at risk.

Dorota Amin, who oversees partnerships and fundraising, stated that traditional systems are under pressure and new tools like blockchain and cryptocurrency are now essential.
