The latest NFT series called ‘Censored’ is set to launch on February 7, which is also Assange’s court date. The collection will include a 1/1 NFT as well as an open edition. Julian Assange has been accused on 18 counts relating to WikiLeaks’ release of classified government documents. He’s currently serving time in prison in the U.K., where he is fighting extradition where if he was found guilty of all charges, Assange faces up to 175 years in prison. In 2011, WikiLeaks became one of the first organizations to accept donations in Bitcoin. Censored is a collaboration with Julian Assange.It's about you.
