朱利安·阿桑奇從貝爾馬什監獄獲釋，部分歸功於加密貨幣捐贈

在監獄服刑五年多後，舉報網站維基解密的創始人現在返回祖國澳大利亞

After spending more than five years behind bars, the founder of whistleblowing site Wikileaks, is now headed back to his native Australia through the remote U.S. island of Saipan, where he will plead guilty to charges of violating U.S. espionage laws.

在入獄五年多後，舉報網站維基解密的創始人現在正透過美國偏遠的塞班島返回祖國澳大利亞，在那裡他將承認違反美國間諜法的指控。

Silke Noa, a crypto lawyer and founding member of AssangeDAO, a collective of cypherpunks advocating for Assange’s release, said the crypto ecosystem “bankrolled Assange’s freedom.”

Silke Noa 是一名加密貨幣律師，也是 AssangeDAO 的創始成員，AssangeDAO 是一個倡導釋放阿桑奇的密碼朋克團體，他表示，加密貨幣生態系統「為阿桑奇的自由提供了資金」。

Her words point to the eye-watering amount of ETH donated through crowdfunding platform JuiceBox. A total of 17,422 ETH ($59.5 million) were raised, and according to Noa, it is estimated that more than 11,000 ETH ($37 million) was spent on his legal defense and general campaigning.

她的話指出了透過群眾募資平台 JuiceBox 捐贈的 ETH 金額令人瞠目結舌。總共籌集了 17,422 ETH（5,950 萬美元），據 Noa 稱，估計超過 11,000 ETH（3,700 萬美元）用於他的法律辯護和一般競選活動。

The remaining 4,400 ($15 million) remains in a multi-sig wallet operated by the Wau Holland Foundation, which has also been spearheading the efforts to free Assange.

剩下的 4,400 枚（1500 萬美元）仍存放在由 Wau Holland 基金會運營的多重簽名錢包中，該基金會也一直在帶頭努力釋放阿桑奇。

Notably, and despite the news being a surprise for most, investors have been interested in buying JUSTICE in the past year. The token is up 1,100% since this time last year.

值得注意的是，儘管這一消息令大多數人感到意外，但投資者在過去一年裡一直對購買 JUSTICE 感興趣。自去年同期以來，該代幣已上漲 1,100%。

“In terms of precedent, I believe this is a bittersweet day since Julian has to plead guilty to charges he should never need to plead guilty to,” said Silke Noa, a crypto lawyer and founding member of AssangeDAO.

「就先例而言，我認為這是苦樂參半的一天，因為朱利安必須承認他永遠不需要認罪的指控，」加密貨幣律師兼 AssangeDAO 的創始成員西爾克·諾亞 (Silke Noa) 說。

However, Noa told The Defiant, “for the AssangeDAO the aim has always been to free Julian by whatever means necessary. The means here was a plea. As the most distinguished and most persecuted journalist of this century, he was dying in Belmarsh.”

然而，諾亞告訴《捍衛者報》，「對 AssangeDAO 來說，目標始終是透過任何必要手段釋放朱利安。這裡的手段是懇求。作為本世紀最傑出、最受迫害的記者，他正在貝爾馬什去世。

Julian Assange is a cypherpunk-turned journalist. His organization, Wikileaks, became famous after exposing human rights violations and corruption from various governments and corporations, including U.S. military actions in the Middle East.

朱利安‧阿桑奇 (Julian Assange) 是一位密碼龐克出身的記者。他的組織維基解密因揭露各國政府和企業的侵犯人權和腐敗行為（包括美國在中東的軍事行動）而聞名。

A world-class cryptographer, Assange was also known in underground hacking groups for having infiltrated the U.S. Department of Defense among others, and co-authored an encryption protocol dubbed Rubberhose that made it impossible for authorities to decrypt activist’s secrets.

作為世界級的密碼學家，阿桑奇在地下黑客組織中也因滲透到美國國防部等機構而聞名，並與人共同編寫了一種名為“Rubberhose”的加密協議，該協議使當局無法解密活動人士的秘密。

In February 2022, AssangeDAO launched a fundraising campaign on the crowdfunding platform JuiceBox, and raised the most amount of money by any DAO in the history of the site.

2022 年 2 月，AssangeDAO 在眾籌平台 JuiceBox 上發起了籌款活動，並成為該網站歷史上 DAO 籌集資金最多的一次。

AssangeDAO bid on a collaborative artwork series dubbed “Censored” by digital artist Pak, which featured an NFT titled “Clock 1/1,” created by Assange and Pak. Clock 1/1 was a silent timepeace that would count the days Assange spent in prison.

AssangeDAO 競標了由數位藝術家 Pak 創作的名為「Censored」的合作藝術作品系列，其中包含由 Assange 和 Pak 創作的名為「Clock 1/1」的 NFT。 Clock 1/1 是一個安靜的時間和平，用於計算阿桑奇在監獄中度過的天數。

Yesterday, the clock stopped at 1,728 days.

昨天，時鐘停在了1728天。

Auction proceeds earned from the Clock series went to the Wau Holland Foundation’s fund supporting Julian Assange. AssangeDAO completed two fundraising rounds, raising a total of more than 17,433 ETH.

時鐘系列的拍賣收益捐給了瓦烏荷蘭基金會支持朱利安·阿桑奇的基金。 AssangeDAO 完成了兩輪融資，總共籌集了超過 17,433 ETH。

Noa explained that her role was to come up with a structure in a very short period to ensure any anonymous donations collected via Juicebox would be bankable such that they can pay for lawyers, legal fees and campaign costs.

諾亞解釋說，她的職責是在很短的時間內提出一個結構，以確保透過 Juicebox 收集的任何匿名捐款都可以銀行化，以便他們可以支付律師費、法律費用和競選費用。

The fundraising efforts weren’t without controversy, she added. The vast majority of the donations–95% Noa said–were bid on the Clock NFT, and later transferred by Pak to the Wau Holland Foundation.

她補充說，籌款活動並非沒有爭議。絕大多數捐款——Noa 說的 95%——都是在 Clock NFT 上競標的，後來由 Pak 轉給 Wau Holland 基金會。

“The ‘maxbid’ was highly controversial and split the community,” said Noa.

「『最高出價』極具爭議性，並且導致社區分裂，」諾亞說。

She’s referring to the divide that took place when the DAO raised much more than what was projected. The community split into two: those that wanted to ‘maxbid’ and purchase the NFT from Pak, and others who wanted to keep some cash on hand.

她指的是當 DAO 籌集的資金遠遠超過預期時發生的分歧。社區分成兩派：一派想要「最高出價」並從 Pak 那裡購買 NFT，另一派則想要手頭保留一些現金。

Similar to ConstitutionDAO’s efforts to buy the U.S. constitution, in which donors would receive PEOPLE tokens (ConstitutionDAO’s native cryptocurrency) in exchange for the ETH donated, in Assange’s case users received JUSTICE tokens. According to etherscan, there are 6,067 holders of JUSTICE tokens.

與 ConstitutionDAO 購買美國憲法的努力類似，其中捐贈者將收到 PEOPLE 代幣（ConstitutionDAO 的原生加密貨幣）以換取捐贈的 ETH，在 Assange 的案例中，用戶收到了 JUSTICE 代幣。根據 etherscan 的數據，JUSTICE 代幣有 6,067 名持有者。

Controversy ensued when the DAO–which was led by Pak and Julian’s brother Gabriel Shipton–sent the entirety of the funds to the Wau Holland Foundation, who have allegedly been financing Assange’s release.

當Pak 和朱利安的兄弟加布里埃爾·希普頓(Gabriel Shipton) 領導的DAO 將全部資金轉給瓦烏荷蘭基金會(Wau Holland Foundation) 時，爭議隨之而來，據稱該基金會一直在資助阿桑奇的釋放。

In fact, questions swirl with regards to the whereabouts of those funds as Assange’s wife Stella asks for donations to pay for the jet carrying the journalist back home when the Wau Holland Foundation continues to hold the million-dollar wallet.

事實上，人們對這些資金的去向存有疑問，因為阿桑奇的妻子斯特拉請求捐款來支付載著記者回家的飛機費用，而瓦烏荷蘭基金會仍然持有這個價值數百萬美元的錢包。

The Wau Holland Foundation did not immediately reply to a request for comment from The Defiant.

瓦烏荷蘭基金會沒有立即回覆《捍衛者報》的置評請求。

Assange will see his wife Stella Assange for the first time in years, be with his children who have only met their father through bars, and enjoy the fresh breeze of freedom.

阿桑奇將多年來第一次見到他的妻子斯特拉·阿桑奇，與他只透過酒吧見過父親的孩子們在一起，享受自由的新鮮微風。

But once he has settled back in, Noa expects him to take a more active

但一旦他重新安頓下來，諾亞希望他能採取更積極的態度
