🌕 AssangeDAO 🌕
The mission of the AssangeDAO is to inspire a powerful solidarity network and fight for the freedom of Julian Assange. We will raise funds to help with his legal fees and campaigns to increase public awareness on the systemic failure of our justice systems.
We, the cypherpunks, are rallying to the cause of a fellow cypherpunk in distress.
‘One of the best ways to achieve justice is to expose injustice.’
— Assange
Background
The AssangeDAO is dedicated to restoring Assange's freedom.
The DAO started to mobilize in a Telegram group on December 10th, 2021, the day that the U.S. government won its appeal of a British court ruling that barred Assange’s extradition to the US. If extradited to the United States, Assange faces 175 years in prison for publishing truthful information.
Shortly after the Telegram group was formed, Assange’s brother Gabriel Shipton joined. He informed us that an NFT collaboration with Assange was in progress which was going to be auctioned to raise funds for his campaign.
Inspired by the FreeRossDAO (which raised $12 million to free Ross Ulbricht), the AssangeDAO successfully raised $55 Million to bid on Assange's NFT. By galvanizing an Assange solidarity network we moved to send a powerful signal that the time of passivity is over. A new era of cypherpunk organization has dawned.
