Today, Alex Bornyakov, The Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, announced a collaboration between Everstake and FTX to make crypto donations more accessible and easier than ever. Together they created donate.thedigital.gov.ua, a new website that simplifies crypto donation. According to the website, Ukraine aims to raise $200,000,000, and we're just under a quarter of the way there! If you've yet to donate, you can do so here:

In similar news, about a week ago, Ukraine canceled their scheduled airdrop to announce that they will instead be focusing on an NFT drop. Bornyaknov mentioned in a recent tweet that the collection will act as a "Museum Of The Russian-Ukrainian War" and that something of this caliber will take time to create. They acknowledge that they've only got one shot at this collection. They want it to be perfect before it's released, which is understandable considering their current position.

Doodles unexpectedly partnered up with Behr to offer a unique one-of-a-kind POAP to go along with their SXSW live event. 

If you've been following the newsletters over the past few days, you may know that I've been obsessing over Doodles and everything they've been doing lately. It's been confirmed that Shopify and Behr seem to be the two sponsored companies that brought the Doodles live event to fruition. Both brought unique aspects to the table that no other live event at SXSW could replicate. While Shopify helped on the merchandise side of things, Behr one-upped them with a POAP!

A few days ago, Doodles was trading at a low of 8 ETH; in a matter of days, the floor rose 4 ETH and is currently trading at around 12-13 ETH.
