Ukraine has increased the number of cryptocurrencies it is accepting for military donations amid the ongoing conflict with Russia. People can contribute Dogecoin as a donation, according to Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine's vice prime minister. Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency that began as a joke and has gained traction gradually, It is often referred to as a “memecoin”. In his tweet, Mr Fedorov stated that Dogecoin had exceeded the Russian Ruble in value, and went on to add that “now, even meme can support our army and save lives from Russian invaders”. @dogecoin exceeded Russian ruble in value. We start to accept donations in meme coin. Now even meme can support our army and save lives from Russian invaders. $DOGE owners of the world, @elonmusk, @BillyM2k, let's do it.

Many cryptocurrency holders are extending a helping hand towards Ukraine. This is a step to empower them to fight against the invasion and help the citizens in this difficult time. Crypto donations are pouring in from every possible corner of the world. These donations will be used by the Ukrainian government in need.
