Donate crypto on POTLOCK app

POTLOCK lets you donate in many cryptocurrencies—including NEAR, ETH, SOL, BTC, and stablecoins—to projects, campaigns, and funding rounds. Donations go directly to recipients; you can support public goods, open source, and ecosystem projects with a single flow.

Steps to donate on POTLOCK

  • Go to app.potlock.org and connect your wallet (NEAR, Ethereum, or other supported chain).
  • Browse projects, campaigns, or active funding rounds (pots).
  • Choose a project or campaign and select the amount and asset you want to donate.
  • Confirm the transaction in your wallet. Funds are sent on-chain to the recipient.

What assets can I donate?

POTLOCK supports native NEAR and, via NEAR Intents and chain abstraction, ETH, SOL, BTC, stablecoins (e.g. USDC, USDT), and other assets. The exact list depends on the campaign or round; the app shows available options when you donate.

NEAR: QR (cross-chain, settle in NEAR) or sign in and pay from balance

For NEAR you can donate via QR code (pay from any supported chain; settlement is in NEAR) or sign in with your NEAR wallet and transact directly from your balance. See docs.potlock.org/docs/user-guides/donate-by-chain/donate-near and the Donate to a project guide for the full flows.
