Our ninth Bootyshaker is the incredibly sweet and loving: Ira Magnusson. Ira is the creator of the adorable and ridiculously cute NFT project: Ugly Sweaters. They are a collection of hand made bears wearing cozy little sweaters that radiate kindness and positivity.

As a native Ukrainian artist, this year has been extremely difficult on her, her family, her friends, her nation, and the entire world. Ira chose to use that heartache for good. Ugly Sweaters successfully raised $77,000 USD (over 2.2 million UAH) to donate directly to the Ukrainian Government to fight the war against Russia.

She cares deeply for the people around her, the work that she creates, and the people she can affect along the way. Thank you, Ira, web3’s mama bear. Thank you for being such a positive light in such times of darkness and bringing so much love and coziness to the web3 space.
