A newly formed decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) called AssangeDAO is raising funds to bid on an NFT artwork made by digital artist PAK in an effort to help WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange get free. Pak, whose previous NFT project Merge sold for a combined $91.8 million in December 2020 announced his new project last week. 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. It consists of two parts, a dynamic 1/1 and a dynamic open edition, for you all to participate. It will be here on February 7th. https://t.co/QvKlk3oIs8 — Pak (@muratpak) January 30, 2022 Proceeds Will Go Towards Assange’s Legal Fees Claiming to be fully community-led, AssangeDAO is accepting contributions in Ethereum via Juicebox funding platform and so far already collected a total volume of 2,675 ETH worth $7.8 million since the project was created on the platform this week. In return, donors will receive the AssangeDAO JUSTICE governance token which will allow them to vote on governance proposals. If the DAO wins the NFT auction, the community will decide via governance what to do with the NFT and the future roadmap of the DAO. If it loses, the ETH held in the Gnosis Safe will be redeemable for $JUSTICE tokens, allowing the DAO to live on regardless of the auction’s outcome and for people to exit the DAO with contributions they made for the NFT.

Mint Gold Dust (https://www.mintgolddust.com/), a digital ecosystem for connecting creators and providing provenance through smart contracts, announced today that it will “hack” Miami Art Week with augmented reality by creating a GPS scavenger hunt for NFTs. In partnership with Illust Space, Mint Gold Dust will be geo-dropping NFTs from their marketplace throughout Miami, allowing fair-goers to follow a map and use their phones to reveal the works hiding in plain sight. 

They plan to drop NFTs outside of Art Basel, SCOPE Miami Beach, Untitled, Art Miami, and at the Wynwood Walls, making a statement on the validity of digital art and NFTs, an underrepresented genre at Miami Art Week, despite its overwhelming success the past year. The pieces will be visible via Illust Space's online app, https://ar.illust.space. Discovery maps were released Tuesday, November 30th on Mint Gold Dust's Twitter and Discord, and will be visible December 1st through December 5th. 

Artists in the drop include Hackato, Svccy, Gisel Florez, Bard Ionson, and more. 

“Mint Gold Dust is not just a platform, but an ecosystem that functions to support artists and collectors. With the artists and collectors, plus the industries we have invested in and partnered with, Mint Gold Dust is a self-sustaining economy,” said Kelly LeValley Hunt, Founder and CEO of Mint Gold Dust. “Miami Art Week attracts artists and collectors from around the world. By ‘hacking' art fairs around the city, we are securing NFTs & Digital Arts for now and the future.”

This year's Miami Art Week is slated to return in a big way after 2020's fairs were called off due to the Covid 19 pandemic. Fairs and events will be taking place around Miami and Miami Beach all week to celebrate the return of in-person art events. 

Also, a part of the drop is $WHALE x BREEZY, an NFT curation of rare NFTs from $WHALE's famed collection, The Vault. Curatorial team BREEZY will be working with Decryptolorian, $WHALE's Head of Art, and Illust Space to geodrop over 20 works from the collection, giving people access to view this legendary collection in a unique and personal way. 

"The $WHALE Vault has been deemed by many as one of the most historically and commercially significant collections of digital art in the world,” said Whaleshark. “It's our pleasure to share the beauty of our collection with you as they come from the pioneers of a new digital era, empowered by true provenance and scarcity of blockchain tokenization."

Breezy founder and Vault curator Eleonora Brizi added, “When I heard about what Illust Space was doing through Mint Gold Dust, everything clicked into place. They have one of the best AR tools I've seen, so it was the perfect fit to bring light to these pieces and stories from the Vault that I want to share with the world. We're bringing the art directly to people, changing the shape of a city, and bringing people and physical experiences together through a digital medium. This is why I'm excited to be curating this collection and presenting artists like Hackatao, Pak, Giant Swan, Brendan Dawes, and more. Through AR, we are making this art more accessible for everyone by sharing it with the world.”
