Description

In 2022, AssangeDAO raised over $52 million USD, and bid the full amount on the Clock NFT by Pak and Julian Assange to raise funds for Assange's legal fund. The NFT was displayed on a website custom built by Pak for the Clock NFT and its auction. The Clock showed incorrect numbers when the auction ended, and until the website went offline last month. There was no announcement and AssangeDAO organizers remain silent, but the blockchain shows that the contract was changed in June 2024, causing the Clock's count to reset.
