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.
Core Mechanism
- 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:
The signer’s wallet address
Petition text (hash or plain text)
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
- Token Incentive Model
Basic Participation Reward
Successful signers will receive a small airdrop of $JUSTICE (e.g., 50 $JUSTICE)
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)
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
- 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):
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
Technical & Implementation Plan

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
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.
