Vitalik donates $4M for pandemic detection tool development
The University of New South Wales (UNSW) has received a $4 million donation of USD Coin (USDC) from Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin for accelerating the development of a pandemic detection tool.
Vitalik and Shiba Inu working together to detect pandemic
The donation, which is around 5.3 million Australian Dollars (AUD), is under Burterin's "moonshot anti-COVID effort" called Balvi Filantropic Fund. Notably, the memecoin project, Shiba Inu collaborates with Buterin for the fund.The funds will go toward the development of the AI-powered EPIWATCH tool, which is based on the Shiba Inu Open-Source Intelligence (OISNT) and uses open-source data to build early pandemic warning indicators.
The pandemic detection tool, developed by Kirby Institute professor and biosecurity research head Raina MacIntyre, searches millions of publicly available web data items, including social media and news headlines, for any abnormalities that could indicate rising health concerns.
Buterin underlined the significance of decentralized and open data sharing to accelerate pandemic detection by stating:
"Open analysis of public data is an excellent alternative to more intrusive forms of monitoring, which are also often only available to governments and other high bidders but closed to the public."The funding will go to the OSINT Initiative, which UNSW's Kirby Institute leads. Earlier this month, the Balvi Filantropic Fund released its first round of funding for several projects and organizations working on COVID-19 and pandemic prevention technology.
Blockchain applications in the health sector
This is not the first time Blockchain has helped the world to face real-life challenges. For a number of reasons, Blockchain is becoming highly important in healthcare. For example, it allows confidential information to be securely transferred without needing to copy it, which can help decrease medical record errors.In January, a Singaporean healthcare services company Zuellig Pharma employed a blockchain-based system to monitor COVID-19 vaccinations to stop practitioners from delivering expired pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
