SOS Venezuela: Emergency Earthquake Relief
After two powerful earthquakes hit Venezuela, families urgently need food, clean water, medical supplies, and emergency shelter.
This fundraiser was started by our Giveth teammate Cotabe, together with trusted local partners in Venezuela, to help get support to organizations responding on the ground as quickly as possible.
So far, the team has raised over $1,000 and already sent the first $500 to local organizations providing aid, with more distributions on the way.
If you’re able to help, please consider supporting the relief effort on Giveth.

Encrypt the Mempool Coalition
This month, we're highlighting the Encrypt the Mempool Coalition, an initiative bringing together projects, researchers, and community members working to improve privacy and fairness on Ethereum.
Today, every transaction sits in the public mempool before it's confirmed, making it visible to bots that can front-run users, perform sandwich attacks, or censor transactions in real time. The coalition is advocating for an Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) that would encrypt the mempool as part of Ethereum's upcoming I* hardfork, helping protect users while preserving Ethereum's decentralization and credible neutrality.
Giveth is proud to be part of the coalition and support efforts to make Ethereum more secure, private, and resilient for everyone. 💜
