Children's Charity Creates Bitcoin Superhero to Attract Crypto Donations
The "Billy Bitcoin" hero is part of the charity's efforts to drum up more crypto donations.
A U.S.-based children's charity has created a bitcoin superhero to help boost its fundraising profile.
The Songs of Love Foundation, which became one of the first national children's charities to accept cryptocurrency donations in 2013, is a nonprofit that creates personalized songs to uplift children facing tough medical conditions or emotional challenges.
Launched Friday, the "Billy Bitcoin" superhero is part of the charity's efforts to increase donations through cryptocurrency, which it said on its website is "even more efficient than donating cash."
Crypto donations to charities are not taxed in most jurisdictions around the world. In the U.S., a person does not owe capital gains tax on the appreciated amount and can deduct his or her donation.
"This win-win solution means you have more money available to donate to charity and can deduct more on your tax return," the charity's website reads. "The difference can amount to more than 30%."
Songs of Love accepts donations in 22 cryptocurrencies, from algorand to zcash.
On Feb. 16, the foundation will celebrate its 25th annivesary. Since its inception, the charity has created "songs of love" for more than 36,000 children worldwide.

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.
需要了解的:
- KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
- This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
- Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
- Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
- Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.
