It’s occurring! All that we have contested for and even more; Ross Ulbricht is liberated and he’s going to Bitcoin 2025! Bring your “Free Ross Day One” t-shirts to Vegas because he will be present at the conference for the first time as a liberated individual, in less than two months.
“Liberty is the release from the capricious dominion of others.” —Mortimer Adler
Liberty holds immense significance for us bitcoin enthusiasts, so when Silk Road creator Ross Ulbricht, a champion of freedom and a Bitcoin trailblazer, received two life sentences plus 40 years with no possibility of parole, our spirits and aspirations plummeted.
Globally, we have championed and fought for Ross’ liberation. From petitions to t-shirts, he occupied our thoughts. Ross embodies our strength during our toughest moments, in our struggle to pursue what is just even when it may appear misguided.
After years of battling, yelling, contesting, and campaigning, Trump made a pledge that should he be re-elected he would pardon Ross. The uncertainty about whether it would actually materialize lingered for months. Then, on January 21st, 2025, Trump fulfilled his promise and it’s safe to say it caused quite a stir. Amidst the cheers and joy, this occasion highlighted our progress, but is there still more distance to cover from here?
The Bitcoin conference has consistently supported the “Free Ross” initiative. He’s not merely one of us, but he is an individual who has contributed to shaping bitcoin into what it is today. We stood by Ross, and our happiness for him returning home is immeasurable.
Are you prepared to forge a united front that creates a future we can take pride in? If so, secure your tickets now for The Bitcoin Conference.
