During the 94th Academy Awards® that aired Sunday, March 27th, one of the commercial advertisements during the breaks featured a cryptocurrency service company that provided viewers a web address or QR code link to make a cryptocurrency donation to the International Red Cross for their relief efforts in Ukraine.
As the war in Ukraine continues to unfold, resulting in more damage and destruction to major cities, a growing number of Ukrainians are leaving to neighboring countries.
It would not be unusual for disasters and tragedies to inspire some retailers to sell products or services with the promise that some of the sales will benefit a relief assistance charity.
