About ConstitutionDAO

ConstitutionDAO was a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) created to purchase a rare copy of the US Constitution. Launched in November 2021, it aimed to democratize access to rare assets by pooling resources through blockchain technology. Initiated by Trent Griffin on Twitter, it quickly raised over $47 million from thousands of investors via its $PEOPLE token. Although it participated in a Sotheby's auction, its bid was unsuccessful due to concerns over long-term preservation. The DAO subsequently disbanded, refunding contributions after deducting transaction fees. Despite failing to acquire the Constitution, it served as an influential example of decentralized asset ownership within the crypto community.
