London, August 28 (RHC)-- The world’s first global platform for protest in the metaverse announced that the campaign to stop the extradition of Julian Assange launched the first ever virtual political rally for Assange over the weekend.

The rally was part of the effort to prevent the founder of WikiLeaks from being extradited to the United States, where he faces a 175 year jail sentence for revealing information about the Iraq and Afghan wars. 

The virtual protest was organized by the Don’t Extradite Assange Campaign (https://dontextraditeassange.com), which is the official campaign of the Assange movement, working with Assange and his family.

John Rees from the Don't Extradite Assange campaign said, “This event in the Wistaverse is a valuable opportunity to unite people across the world who believe in freedom of speech and freedom of the press to show their support for Julian and set a signal that will be an important precedent for human rights everywhere.  No matter where you are in the world, you could virtually join this event.” 
 
The event included the participation of and speeches by Julian Assange himself (pre-recorded), his wife Stella Assange, Kristinn Hrafnsson, the co-founder and editor-in-chief of WikiLeaks, and other high profile guests, including British politician Jeremy Corbyn.

The event took take place in the Wistaverse, the world’s first platform for virtual protest in the metaverse.  

The Wistaverse is a not-for-profit protocol located in the Sandbox on the Polygon blockchain. Users who organize protests do so on their own initiative, independent of the Wistaverse’s creators.  The protocol enables a platform for protest for causes with universal importance and gives access for everyone to participate, regardless of geographical location or possible physical disabilities.
