Crypto donor gives another 100,000 XRP to South Korean charity

Philanthropist Kim Geo-seok, 79, has donated 100,000 XRP, worth approximately 200 million won ($145,000), to the Seoul branch of the Community Chest of Korea, Insight reported on April 27. The organization said it plans to liquidate the assets, which were transferred on April 24, to fund support programs for vulnerable local communities. This marks Kim's latest crypto-based donation, following his contribution of one Bitcoin in August last year—a first in South Korea—and a separate 100,000 XRP donation to Seoul National University Hospital in March.
