SOS consult with Dragon to become the first<br />

charity to accept digital currency donations<br />

Save our Soldier have recently updated<br />

their website, and it is jam-packed full<br />

of useful information ranging from a<br />

multitude of helpful articles to providing<br />

phone numbers to speak to somebody about<br />

PTSI.<br />

<strong>The</strong> SOS team is going from strength to<br />

strength and following on from the success of<br />

their single ‘Saved a Soldier' which was a<br />

contender for Christmas charity single of the<br />

year they are now able to accept digital currency<br />

donations!<br />

Dragon has been providing consultancy services<br />

to several charities worldwide with a<br />

key focus on veterans related charities.<br />

Within the UK, Save our Soldier (SOS) takes<br />

the lead and we are incredibly pleased to<br />

announce that SOS has become the first military<br />

charity who are able to accept digital currency<br />

donations. This development and<br />

implementation of Dragon Blockchain technology<br />

is set to provide a convenient, alternative<br />

method of donation for members of the<br />

public and is set to further evolve the charity<br />

industry - so help can rightly be given to the<br />

people who need it the most.<br />

<strong>The</strong> team at Dragon have been working tirelessly<br />

behind the scenes to streamline the<br />

process of receiving donations and to the<br />

ensure that the technology has been rigorously<br />

tested and completely fit for purpose in<br />

today's fast-paced world. Supporting charitable<br />

ventures is something that Dragon cofounder<br />

Paul Moynan is passionate about<br />

and, as a former Royal Marine Commando<br />

with combat tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, he<br />

is especially honoured to be consulting with<br />

SOS.<br />

Dragon has already seen widespread adoption<br />

of Dragon Coin (DRG), the world’s number<br />

one entertainment coin, and have already<br />

put its underlying technology through its<br />

paces in a live event. As well as being able<br />

to donate Dragon Coin (DRG) people can<br />

donate Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH) and Ripple<br />

(XRP) with more methods coming soon.<br />

<strong>The</strong> SOS website allows donors to quickly<br />

and easily send money by scanning a QR<br />

code on the website with their mobile phones<br />

which have the easy-to-use Dragon Social<br />

Wallet downloaded and installed from their<br />

app store. Once a donation has been made,<br />

the details of it are recorded in an unchanging<br />

digital ledger or ‘block’ which is completely<br />

visible to the public thereby reassuring<br />

the donor that the funds are without a<br />

doubt going to the veterans who need them<br />

quickly and securely.<br />

This is one of several key alliances that<br />

Dragon have underway with other charities as<br />

Dragon sets out to simplify the process of<br />

donations by providing truly ground-breaking<br />

solutions. Make sure you follow the progress<br />

of SOS as they become the first military charity<br />

to integrate digital currency donations into<br />

their website and broader ecosystem.<br />
