Ukraine managed to raise $50 million with 90,000 separate donations after it started accepting crypto donations.
Data shared by blockchain analytics platform Elliptic shows that Ukraine’s crypto donation campaign has reached $50.9 million. Ukraine’s campaign started with an announcement made on the country’s official Twitter account on February 26. First of all, the country that accepts BTC, ETH and USDT, then DOT with the call of Polkadot founder Wood; yesterday, DOGE started accepting it.
Airdrop Canceled
On the other hand, Deputy Prime Minister Mykhailo Fedorov, donated in previous days that they canceled the announced airdrop “after a good evaluation”; instead, NFT announced plans to launch it. The announcement sparked humorous “rug” rhetoric in the crypto community.
After careful consideration we decided to cancel airdrop. Every day there are more and more people willing to help Ukraine to fight back the agression. Instead, we will announce NFTs to support Ukrainian Armed Forces soon. We DO NOT HAVE any plans to issue any fungible tokens
