Questions you might have
We tried to answer everything we'd want to know if the situation were reversed.
About Igor
Igor was in a terrible accident. Scalding liquid burned both arms, both legs, his torso, his back, and parts of his face. About half his body. His throat and lungs were spared, and his family holds onto that every day. He's a father of two young kids, and right now he's in the burn unit facing months of surgeries, skin grafts, and rehabilitation.
Funds from this campaign go toward Igor's medical treatment, rehabilitation, and the day-to-day costs his family faces while he cannot work: rent, groceries, childcare for his two kids, and medical travel. All spending is documented publicly.
Yes. The Updates page will carry status updates, spending reports, and recovery milestones as they happen. Igor or his family may also share updates when they're able to. During the most intensive treatment periods, updates may come from the campaign operator instead.
About donating
A lot of people in Igor's life are crypto-native. They asked for a way to give directly, with full transparency, without a platform taking a cut. So his friends built this. A GoFundMe is also being set up for people who prefer traditional payments. Both are real, both go to Igor.
Recommended methods have lower transaction fees, which means more of your donation actually reaches Igor. Base USDC, for example, costs fractions of a cent to send. Ethereum mainnet can cost several dollars in gas fees. All listed methods work. Recommended just means cheaper for you and better for Igor.
For EVM chains (Ethereum, Base), you can send most ERC-20 tokens to the Safe multisig address. For Solana, most SPL tokens work with the Squads address. Stick to well-known tokens; obscure ones may be difficult to convert into money Igor can actually use. When in doubt, send USDC on Base.
Reach out to us. We'll do our best to recover it (no guarantees, but we'll try). Recovery may be possible for EVM chains since the Safe address can be the same across chains. Always double-check the chain name next to the address before sending.
About safety
We know this is the first thing people worry about with any online fundraiser, and you should be careful. Here is how you can verify: independent people who know Igor have confirmed this campaign and published proof links on the Trust page. The donation addresses on this site match a signed manifest you can download and check. And if you know Igor personally, call him or his family. They'll confirm it.
Nobody acts alone. For Bitcoin, EVM chains, and Solana, three of Igor's friends hold the multisig keys. One runs the campaign, and two others each hold a key, in different locations, and they don't know each other. Any two of the three must agree before funds move. Igor himself is not a keyholder so he can focus on healing. For Monero, the spend key is fully offline. It's never been connected to the internet. Every payment is documented on the Updates page.
Fresh campaign-specific addresses are standard security practice. They provide a clean audit trail, make it easier to track donations to Igor specifically, and avoid confusion with anyone's personal wallets. This is deliberate and documented, not suspicious.
Treat them as suspicious. This website is the only official source for Igor's donation addresses. If someone posts different addresses on social media, in DMs, or on other websites, do not send funds until you have verified the address matches the official verification page here. Scammers sometimes impersonate real campaigns. Always verify.
Technical details
He doesn't have to. That's the whole point of how this was designed. Igor is not a keyholder on the multisig wallets. Three of his friends handle that, so he can focus entirely on recovery. They approve spending for hospital bills, rent, groceries for his kids. When Igor is ready, signing authority can be transferred to him. The full plan is on the Trust page.
Monero is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency. Its spend keys must remain offline. They never touch the internet. The site may use a view-only wallet to see incoming donations, but that wallet cannot spend anything. All Monero spending requires the offline key, which adds an extra layer of protection.
The Updates page documents every disbursement with transaction links and supporting details. You can verify transactions directly on block explorers. The campaign is committed to full public transparency. Igor's friends set it up this way on purpose so donors never have to wonder where their money went.
