Ukraine’s Vice Prime Minister and the Minister of Digital Transformations, Mykhailo Federov, has recently highlighted via his Twitter that the country will accept war effort contributions in Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) donations and purchases. 

Initiative Accumulated Over $60M So Far

The Vice Prime Minister first signified NFT and used them to help pay for its military earlier in March. And the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine also rolled out a virtual NFT gallery to preserve the memory of war. 

This war had bolstered the adoption of cryptocurrencies in both Russia and Ukraine. As the access to conventional finance systems became a bit tough for the citizens, they turned their heads towards the asset class. And indeed, cryptocurrencies have played a vital role in aiding Ukraine. It is to look forward to how the asset class contributes further.
