Why does Trinity accept cryptocurrency and stock?
With more than 300 million crypto users worldwide and the value of many cryptocurrencies rising, the crypto community is in a position to make a wide-reaching impact through philanthropy.
Over 60% of Americans own stock. Stock donations can make a wide-reaching impact through philanthropy. Studies show that nonprofits that accept noncash assets typically grow 50% faster than those that do not, and they grow 66% faster when they accept non-cash securities such as stock.
Donating crypto and stock directly is also one of the most tax-efficient ways for individuals to support causes that matter to them. When you donate stock or crypto instead of the proceeds from selling it, you avoid paying capital gains tax.
