The main brain behind this project is Called The Silver Fox in this collection, he has a background in 3D animation, Video games, Visual Effects and Music Production. He has been working in the entertainment and education industry for more than 20 years.
But we shouldn’t forget about two other members that were key to complete it:
The Stork and The Elk (All three will be revealing their identities as part of the roadmap).
Chris: The NFT collection represents Ukrainian theme animals. What do these tokens essentially represent?
Silver Fox: This project was about something completely different, but when the conflict started, we decided to pull the switch down and redo everything while keeping the road map as close and doable as possible.
We started by looking at different ways of representing Ukraine without showing war, political views or the suffering of the country.
Starting with history, we wanted to establish the iconic shields used through different stages of government. After that we were looking into the most representative animals in the region, symbols and art and capture everything in an image. Every NFT represent history, fauna and his idiosyncrasy.
Chris: So, you want to help families in Ukraine through this NFT. How do you plan to materialize the idea?
Silver Fox: We have a good relationship with head members of the red cross in our country, and that was the first option in our mind. The red cross told us that the best way to help will be through cash donations because of the long distance between our countries, but after contacting some other companies and organizations, we found some other ways to send physical goods.
The Ukrainian Embassy will help with some logistics if we send trucks filled with supplies.
Other artist and fiends (a special one who has her family trapped in the conflict) are helping to find real organizations that can provide real support to the cause. We are not an association dedicated to this kind of events, we just want to do our part using what we know while creating a community who loves NFTs and wants to join our project. By getting one of these NFTs, holders will be getting great benefits while helping a good cause and creating a movement.
Chris: This NFT is a tribute to Ukrainian art. What are the different traits that help in making each one of the 10000 tokens unique?
Silver Fox: Normally collections are made around one character in particular, but we decided that one was not enough and starting to sketch different options. At the same time a friend sent us an image of some sort of mail stamp created by a Ukrainian artist, and we all said “That is it”, this could help us to place many traits related to the Country.

Chris: Save Ukraine NFT is supported by several organizations. What are your noted collaborations , and how have they helped in making Save Ukraine NFT popular?
Silver Fox: Behind this project are three main private companies, a video game studio located in Canada, an educational institution located in Mexico and an NFT Agency located in the USA.
@NFT.money (a big member in the Instagram community) help us by sharing some stories through his channels, that is why we think we should be giving him some credit.
NFT calendar is also helping us to accomplish that, thank you!
But really… This is not about the companies that are or will make the project popular, we think that the main purpose of this are the organizations that we know are doing a great job at helping in this conflict and doing it the right way.

Silver Fox: All the NFTs are available at the website on the Ethereum network, with a minting price of 0.07 ETH.
Chris: Consequently, do you also have minting limits per investor or transaction? How many tokens can an investor buy in one go?
Silver Fox: Yes, the limit is 20 per transaction.
Chris: We read that there are plans to build 3D NFTs and facilitate the land purchase on the Metaverse. Please elaborate more on your future plans with Save Ukraine NFT.
Silver Fox: The 3D assets are going to look amazing because we will be retaining the entire structure of the 2D, creating a cubed box (toy like) where they could be living.
The company behind the metaverse will be creating a virtual colony called Ukraine where all holders will be getting a 4x4 m2 space for free to join this exclusive place where only owners of land, guests or people who rent a space will be able to enter. You can join our social (Twitter and Discord ) so as not to miss new updates.
Chris: Finally, please chart out the minting process in the interest of our readers.
Silver Fox: The minting process is very simple, all you have to do is to create (or log with) a Metamask wallet at this page ukrainft.org/mint, ad 0.07ETH + gas fee, click on the number of NFTs that you wish to buy and accept the transaction on your wallet.
After that, you will see your Save Ukraine NFT Art at OpenSea right here: https://ukrainft.org/mint
