The Meta History Museum uses unique NFT's to help fund the restoration of historical sites in Ukraine, as well as military supplies to help fight the Russian invasion. The NFT's are an act of historical preservation - daily events in Ukraine are chronicled on the blockchain as unique works of art. We speak with Alisa Fursa live from Kyiv, Ukraine to learn more about how this new tech is being used in War.

Plus, the crash of Crypto has drained thousands of US investors... but what about the global impacts? From evading sanctions to replacing national currencies... we speak with Benjamin Powers and Joshua Keating from Grid News to learn why some foreign governments lean heavily into Crypto, and how the crash has impacted their motives. 

Lastly, WEB3 opportunities aren't just reshaping Silicon Valley and Wall Street! Robert Richardson from Disrupt Art is the founder of Midwest Con, the first NFT conference coming to the midwest. He joins the show to tell Shira why he's bringing Web3 to the Midwest, and what attendees can expect to see there.
