Some extremely radical individuals did need to be removed, but others who weren’t that extreme were also kicked out too easily.
Moreover, they have never made any real effort to push forward community governance. I’ve seen you repeatedly urging core members to take action and move the community forward, but they never do. Instead, they hide in the shadows, staying silent. Then, the moment the community makes progress, they suddenly appear,attempting to take credit
I disagree - very strong on taking a cautionary appproach and they’re risk averse.
I’ll say again, I’m humbled by the nomination and proud of what AssangeDAO has accomplished together. Its amazing we secured Julian’s freedom through collective action in a diversified way!
The $justice token stands as a testament to why tokenization must remain free from state regulation, setting us apart from the broader ecosystem of memes and gambling due to our philanthropic nature. Despite debates, particularly around liquidating treasury funds during Julian’s legal battle, I believe our focus on his freedom was the right one, even if it’s drawn heat for candidates like myself and @San_Shi_Wu .
To @PeterT ’s questions:
On a revised Vision statement, with Julian free, questions exist about our purpose. I’d advocate maintaining our philanthropic backbone, protecting our holdings to ensure continued advocacy for free speech. We must elevate historical assets like the ‘Clock’ artwork and the art auction that inspired us, while raising awareness of our achievements as a DAO. Monetizing this history and building revenue streams can support longevity, fund additional free speech causes, and attract new donors and members. AssangeDAO can remain a model for collective action, organizing for future battles in the fight for free speech.
Regarding treasury management, I favor a conservative approach given the crypto cycle’s risks. I wouldn’t push for major moves from ETH to stables or other assets now considering volatility but would focus on our path forward, creating a plan to diversify some portion of assets as the environment becomes more bullish. The goal would be to ensure we sustain our mission through the inevitable volatility.
On risks in proposals, the largest threat I see is still calls to liquidate the treasury—pushed by a vocal minority since formation to throw our ETH into the $justice token as exit liquidity. I view this as shortsighted and will vehemently oppose any proposal sacrificing our long-term vision for short-term gains.
I’m thankful for this opportunity and committed to building on our success while staying true to our founding principles.
@versky do you have another profile name? I can’t see your name in TG or Discord.
@versky , what’s your trading wallet and vault?
Which wallet do you hold the nfts in? There are only 4 wallets with more than 20 censored tokens. I am one and another is the burn address ive sent 24 tokens to haha
Thanks for the comprehensive answers. I think more members/participants should be asking questions - as the GTU - is only temporary (if approved) - but the DAO is looking for more multi-sigs - so it can’t hurt to ask questions, as Gabriel and Silke have suggested.
More questions and more answers before time runs out - this is in everybody’s best interest.
How could the treasury be best protected from the current volatility given that it has markedly dropped in the last few days? How do you approach financial management?
Based on the market performance over the last two years, if the foundation’s remaining funds can be refunded to the community, I would suggest converting the treasury’s part of the ETH into BTC. BTC is clearly more stable, has higher returns, and enjoys stronger consensus compared to ETH. Additionally, as the community governance improves, with the community growing stronger and its consensus solidifying, using part of the ETH to repurchase community tokens ($JUSTICE) will significantly enhance the treasury’s assets and boost the confidence and motivation of token holders and contributors. At the same time, we can further empower the $JUSTICE token.
If you were asked to review a revised Vision statement for the AssangeDAO what elements would you prefer to see prioritised?
Continue to advocate for Assange’s full pardon: This remains a core mission, with Assange’s legal and political status being a key goal for the DAO.
Support free speech and press freedom: Ensure that the DAO’s efforts are aligned with supporting independent journalism, freedom of speech, and the protection of journalists and whistleblowers globally.
How would you detect/flag whether a proposal contained a risk/security/threat assessment?
Require proposal submitters to explicitly outline the potential risks involved and provide clear mitigation strategies.
Establish a dedicated security review team to assess high-risk proposals.
If a proposal involves significant financial management, governance changes, or other high-risk actions, implement a warning system. This could include increasing the voting threshold or extending the discussion period to allow for adequate evaluation by the community.
How many $justice do you have?what’s your wallet?
How many $justice do you have?which wallet do you hold?
Accountability is more important. No one involved in the DAO is willing to be accountable, just to take credit.
So why are the three of you asking for other’s wallet information in quick succession ? I’m curious are you three the same person?
I don’t think he needs to make this information public
Answer three questions:
I think that when the market is fomo, some ETH needs to be exchanged for USDC. Although we all believe that ETH will become greater and greater, but as AssangeDAO, I need to avoid huge volatility risks. In addition, part of the funds in the treasury need to be used for community development. We cannot be too conservative and let it lie still, otherwise the meaning of AssangeDAO will be lost.
I will base it on the following points:
Strengthen the influence of the community,
Promote Mr. Assange’s spirit of freedom of speech, fairness and justice,
And not damage Mr. Assange’s reputation,
Not harm the interests of coin holders, and not destroy community unity.
I will focus on the following points:
It is not conducive to the long-term development of the community,
It violates Assange’s spirit or reputation, and
It harms the interests of coin holders.
I think one have to hold tokens before he or she are eligible to be a member of the community. This is a must.
Everyone talks about preventing infiltration - no one will take responsibility for bringing E into the DAO, or making him a Snapshot author. He and Gabriel were the only two admins for the original Telegram channel until his account was automatically deleted a year after he was arrested for being a pedophile.
Your comments reveal your shocking ignorance of basic crypto concepts and inappropriate rudeness.
You clearly don’t understand that:
It’s incredibly rude to demand other’s private info. If you were truly knowledgeable, you’d show your own wallet address and holdings before requesting others to expose theirs.
If you genuinely care about this community, start by respecting others instead of arrogantly questioning people while displaying your own incompetence. Your behavior suggests that you may not be adequately informed and educated to contribute effectively to the DAO.
Real community members build consensus rather than launching baseless accusations.

Amir brought E into the one chat. No one took responsibility for making him an author, for making him a moderator, etc.
Good ideas, thanks Logan
