Alleged QAnon leader is selling NFTs of Trump tweets to fund new ‘Bill of Rights’

Ron Watkins, the computer programmer believed to a one-time leader of the QAnon movement, is now selling non-fungible tokens (NFTs) of his old tweets to raise money for a secret “Digital Bill of Rights” project.

Mr Watkins, who once helped run the 8chan and 8kun message boards where the QAnon conspiracy first flourished, is selling five NFTS featuring old tweets of his that were retweeted by former president Donald Trump in what he calls the “Freedom Series”.

One, from 3 January, reads, “If you are planning to attend peaceful protests in DC on the 6th, I recommend wearing a body camera. The more video angles of that day the better.”
