WikiLeaks donation address (currently published)
WikiLeaks currently publishes a native SegWit (bech32) Bitcoin address on its own donation page, alongside addresses for several other cryptocurrencies. It is a direct self-disclosure by the organisation rather than a third-party attribution. Its recorded activity is far smaller in transaction count than the 2011 address it succeeded.

Evidence boundary
What is — and is not — established
Sourced from WikiLeaks' own live donation page, so the attribution is a self-disclosure — the strongest class of evidence available for a donation address. However, self-published pages change: this reflects what the page showed on the date fetched, and a future visitor may see a different string. The era field is a guess based on the address format (bech32 addresses postdate 2017); the actual first-seen block was not verified this session. No link between this address and the 2011 address was established on-chain here, and none should be inferred.
