WARRIORS OF HOPE: A charity NFT sale to help India fight the Covid emergency

Covid has India in a tight grip. A devastating second wave, or rather tsunami, is flooding big cities, towns and villages. Hospitals are overrun and there is acute shortage of ICU units, oxygen, food, drugs like remdesivir and more.

Sandeep Nailwal and the Crypto Relief Fund

To help India fight this Covid emergency, Sandeep Nailwal – co-founder of Polygon (previous Matic Network) – has started the India Crypto Relief Fund. It’s a community-run fund with one mission only: To reduce suffering by providing healthcare and essentials to those fighting for survival against Covid.

Cryptoart India Collective

Vitalik and BalajiS, to name a few, already contributed to Sandeep’s Crypto Relief Fund. And now the NFT community is doing its part on behalf of crypto artists.

44 Indian artists, 2 collaborations, 1 goal – Survival!

To support the Crypto Relief Fund and help fight the Covid emergency, the Cryptoart India Collective, will organize a special NFT charity sale. 100% of the proceeds will go to Saneep Nailwal’s Crypto Relief Fund.
