The integration allows buyers to use more than 130 different digital currencies for their purchases. The plan is to expand the list of supported digital coins in the future.

Cryptocurrencies have gained significant popularity among Ukrainians in the past few years, with their country becoming a leader in Eastern Europe in terms of adoption. Kyiv has taken steps to regulate the industry, and since Russia invaded the country in late February, the government and volunteer groups have been relying on crypto donations to finance their defense and humanitarian efforts.
The Estonia-headquartered Whitebit, a major European crypto exchange originating from Ukraine, has been a participant in such efforts. Earlier this year, the trading platform signed a memorandum of cooperation with the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs to provide assistance to its Anti-Crisis Center and Stöd Ukrainian refugees through its representative offices abroad.
Other crypto companies have also offered help. The world’s largest digital asset exchange by daily trading volume, Binance, issued a special kryptokort for Ukrainians forced to leave their homes behind due to the ongoing military conflict with Russia.
