According to Odaily, Alistair Milne, Chief Information Officer of Altana Digital Currency Fund, has revealed that Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, has received over 8 BTC in donations to fund his journey to freedom. The receiving address 'bc1qsq' matches the one on Assange's donation page.

Data from the Arkham Intelligence Agency indicates that these funds can be traced back to a CashApp deposit made in February 2023. In addition to the Bitcoin donations, Assange has also received over £300,000 (approximately $380,000) in donations made in fiat currency.
