According to the latest reports, in an effort to secure Julian Assange’s freedom, an anonymous Bitcoin donated 8 BTC worth almost $500k to help Assange’s family pay off the debt incurred by his travel and settlement expenses. 
In a recent interview, Assange’s wife, Stella Assange, stated that freedom comes at a cost as Assange was required to pay $520,000 to the Australian government for the chartering of flight VJ199 to travel to Saipan and Australia. 
Assange’s wife started a crowdfunding page to help with his debts after his return to Australia.
