A crypto group has raised nearly $3m in Ether to bid on a rare copy of the U.S. Constitution

On Thursday, auction house Sotheby’s will host an auction for a historic first printing of the U.S. Constitution. A crypto group called ConstitutionDAO claims it wants to be the highest bidder.

On messaging platform Discord, the ConstitutionDAO community is actively engaged in creating memes to promote the project, brainstorming how to get actor Nicolas Cage (star of the National Treasure film about stealing the Constitution) involved in the project, discussing legal questions related to making a bid, and answering questions about how the organization operates. One channel called “gm” is dedicated to group members wishing one another good morning.
