The largest JuiceBox Ethereum raise in history

According to JuiceBox, the community funding platform on which the campaign is running, The DAO received its first donations on Feb. 4. The fundraising total increased over the weekend and doubled to its current level in the last 24 hours. The idea of an AssangeDAO emerged in a Telegram group in mid-December, the day the U.S. government won its appeal of a British court ruling barring Assange's extradition. Proceeds from the sale will go to Assange's defence fund for legal fees and campaigning to raise awareness of Julian's extradition case.

According to AssangeDAO's its tweet it is now the largest JuiceBox Ethereum raise in history, surpassing ConstitutionDAO, which raised money in November to buy an original copy of the United States Constitution. The comparison was made in ETH, as the price in November was much higher. At that time, the value of dollars raised by ConstitutionDAO was $49 million.

What is the story of Julian Assange?

The Australian-born publisher, editor and activist founded the controversial website WikiLeaks. Basically, it published news leaks and classified media provided by anonymous sources. It attracted international attention in 2010 when it exposed a series of leaks provided by U.S. Army Intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning.

Fast forward to 2019, Assange was arrested in London and has been in jail for the better part of the last three years. Previously, he had been hiding in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London for almost seven years, where his asylum status protected him. Assange is currently fighting his extradition to the United States after a court ruling overturned an extradition ban by a British court in December.
