Ukraine\u2019s government created a virtual gallery of NFT-based artworks that \u201caren\u2019t for sale,\u201d but are being preserved as \u201can expression of gratitude, similar to how paintings were presented to royal families and famous scientists in the past.\u201d Tesla<\/strong>‘s chief and Twitter<\/strong> buyer Elon Musk is the first one to enter this virtual \u201cHall of Fame.\u201d<\/p>\n

Musk\u2019s decision to provide SpaceX<\/strong> Starlink satellite internet to assist Ukraine during the Russian invasion is said to be a major boost to the country\u2019s military.<\/p>\n

This virtual hall of fame is hosted on the Meta History: Museum of War platform that is being operated by the Kuna<\/strong> crypto exchange, while the final beneficiary of all the funds raised at the platform is the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The hall will commemorate individuals who were \u201cpicked based on how vocal they were in supporting Ukraine, and what real action they have taken,\u201d according to their announcement.<\/p>\n

“Some other inductees include: Mila Kunis, Elton John, Jared Leto, Jim Carrey, and Benedict Cumberbatch – their portraits are ready to be presented in the Hall of Fame,” they said, adding that \u201cNFT-based artworks will stay on the blockchain forever,\u201d and that \u201cUkraine\u2019s supporters are quite literally writing history through their deeds.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cThese people provided goods and services, supported us behind closed doors, and used the power of their art to draw attention to the cause and collect donations,\u201c they said.<\/p>\n

And they added that by way of a \u201clittle hint,\u201d there would be room in the \u201chall\u201d for new additions, as \u201cactions like this can earn you a place in MetaHistory\u2019s Hall of Fame.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Twitter<\/a>, the NFT museum wrote that it was \u201cgrateful to celebrities who show the truth about the war in Ukraine, and that the hall would be decorated by artists who \u201cwill create NFT artworks dedicated to the public figures who support Ukraine.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ukraine\u2019s government is urging the global crypto community and digital artists to \u201chelp Ukraine with\u201d NFTs, asking donors to \u201cnot leave us alone with the enemy.\u201d The Ministry of Digital Transformation, which has previously set up a platform for crypto donations to fund the nation\u2019s war effort, is also accepting bids for the NFTs previously donated by the crypto community via its OpenSea account.<\/p>\n

Per an official website, all of the NFTs the Aid for Ukraine campaign has amassed thus far \u2013 including a rare CryptoPunks item with a floor price of ETH 150 \u2013 are now on sale, with \u201c100% of the proceeds\u201d going to fund the government of Ukraine\u2019s campaign against Russia.<\/p>\n

The Ethereum (ETH) address associated with the campaign has NFTs worth some USD 264,000 in it at the time of writing, per Etherscan data.<\/p>\n

Also, the NFT museum claimed that it had \u201creleased the first part of its collection of artworks\u201d last month \u201cto great success,\u201d and had collected USD 800,000 from sales.<\/p>\n

The second batch of NFTs, the body noted<\/a> on Twitter, would be made available on May 1.
