Proposal: Launch the Assange Pardon Petition Chain — A Verifiable Signature Campaign Powered by $JUSTICE

:white_check_mark: Summary
This proposal aims to build a verifiable on-chain global petition system that allows supporters worldwide to digitally sign a message demanding the full pardon of Julian Assange.

The campaign will be powered by $JUSTICE tokens and governed by a transparent incentive mechanism to encourage participation, signature sharing, and decentralized amplification.

By combining symbolic action with on-chain verification and token utility, this initiative not only supports Assange’s cause but also reactivates AssangeDAO’s mission and community momentum.

:jigsaw: Core Mechanism

  1. Petition Signature System
    Users connect their wallets and sign a predefined petition message (e.g., “I demand the full pardon of Julian Assange”)

Each signature records:

:fountain_pen: The signer’s wallet address

:scroll: Petition text (hash or plain text)

:clock4: Timestamp

Each wallet may sign only once

All signatures will be publicly viewable, stored on-chain or on IPFS/Arweave

A small amount of $JUSTICE (gas) will be required to complete the signature, which will be returned to the DAO treasury

  1. Token Incentive Model
    :white_check_mark: Basic Participation Reward

Successful signers will receive a small airdrop of $JUSTICE (e.g., 50 $JUSTICE)

:white_check_mark: Invite-to-Sign Bonus

Users receive a unique referral link

If someone signs through their link, the inviter gets a referral bonus (e.g., $20 JUSTICE per invite)

:white_check_mark: Weekly Reward Cap

To prevent abuse, DAO sets a maximum reward pool (e.g., 1,000,000 $JUSTICE/week)

Any excess invites/signatures beyond the cap will still be recorded but unrewarded until next cycle

  1. Twitter Sharing & Amplification
    After signing, users are prompted with a Twitter share window, pre-filled with:

Their unique signer number (e.g., Signer #321)

Petition site link

Tags: #FreeAssange #JusticeChain

Upon successful tweet verification (via backend or off-chain API):

:white_check_mark: The user receives an additional reward (e.g., 50 $JUSTICE)

A weekly leaderboard will reward:

Top 5 amplifiers with a custom NFT badge and additional $JUSTICE bonus

Optional: AssangeDAO can retweet or spotlight top supporters

:hammer_and_wrench: Technical & Implementation Plan
Phase Tasks Timeline Team
Week 1 Finalize petition text, core flow, wallet signature logic GTU / Community
Week 2 Smart contract development (signing + rewards logic) Dev team (contributor)
Week 3 Build UI for petition + referral system Frontend team
Week 3–4 Set up Arweave/IPFS storage for transparency DAO infra support
Week 4 Testnet + Audit + Launch campaign site Community + devs
Ongoing Promotion + Leaderboard + Reward distribution DAO comms team

:moneybag: Proposed Budget (Cap: 10 ETH)
Use Case Allocation
Smart Contract Dev & Audit 3 ETH
Frontend Development 2 ETH
Signature + Referral Reward Pool 100,000,000 $JUSTICE
Twitter API + Hosting 1 ETH
NFT Badge Design + Minting 0.5 ETH
Buffer / Ops 1.5 ETH

:closed_lock_with_key: Security & Anti-Spam Measures
Min $JUSTICE holding check (e.g., 10k) to sign

One signature per wallet

Rate-limit signature attempts per IP

Sybil-resistant referral logic (no circular invites)

Backend to verify Twitter share links before issuing bonus

:handshake: Alignment with DAO’s Mission
This initiative captures the spirit of AssangeDAO:
fighting for free speech, transparency, and decentralization — not just with money, but with participation and collective action.

It also helps reposition the DAO after a long period of stagnation by activating the community in a real, visible, and morally aligned cause.

:white_check_mark: Voting Options
:white_check_mark: YES — Approve and fund the development of the Assange Petition Chain system using $JUSTICE for gas, rewards, and engagement.
