Ukraine Crypto Airdrop Is Cancelled, NFTs Take Their Place

The recent announcement of an Airdrop by the Ukrainian Government has been canceled, not even a day after it was announced.

Despite this fact, Mykhailo Fedorov the Ukrainian Vice Prime Minister stated in a tweet that; “Instead, we will announce NFTs to support Ukrainian Armed Forces soon.”

So far there is no further information on the Ukraine NFT.

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

Although the airdrop is no longer a thing, it was a hugely successful marketing tool in gaining further donations.

The announcement saw thousands of microdonations flood the ETH wallet of Ukraine in an attempt to receive the rewards promised by the airdrop.
