Burn address receives 500 ETH and cryptic ‘brain-computer weapon’ message

Burn address receives 500 ETH and cryptic ‘brain-computer weapon’ message

An unknown sender transferred 500 ETH to a burn address along with a cryptic message that accuses ‘Kuande Investment’ CEOs of brain-washing employees.

According to data from Ethereum Scan, a crypto address belonging to an unknown entity just sent 500 Ethereum (ETH) to a burn address. Alongside this transfer, the sender sent three mysterious messages on the Input Data Message column.

The messages are written in Mandarin, accusing the CEOs of an investment firm called Kuande Investment of using “brain-computer weapons” to enslave the employees and former employees of the firm.

“The CEOs of Kuande Investment: Feng Xin and Xu Yuzhi used brain-computer weapons to persecute all company employees and former employees, and even they themselves were controlled,” wrote the sender in a translated message.

The remaining two messages are written with English translations accompanying the Chinese characters. The second message explains how the previously mentioned brain-altering technology works and how it is hailed as “a new mode of crime.”

“As the brain-computer interface and mind-reading technology keeps developing, there is a new mode of crime in which wild animals become puppets or complete slaves to the digital machine,” said the sender.

In the third message, the sender claimed that the victims being affected by the alleged brain-computer weapon will gradually lose their senses and become “a complete slave to the digital machine.”

Even more unnerving, the sender vows that if they one day fall victim to the brain-controlling machine as well, then they “will leave the world.”

The emergence of this cryptic transfer message has prompted many traders on X to investigate into the mysterious Ethereum address sending these messages. One user with the social media handle @sassal0x, found that the mystery address also sent 591 ETH to the WikiLeaks donation address and 700 ETH to what appears to be a Ukraine donation address.

The sender attached the exact same three messages from the burn address to the Ukraine donation address and the WikiLeaks donation address.

Following the WikiLeaks transfer, the unknown sender revealed his identity. He claimed to be a Chinese programmer and entrepreneur named Hu Lezhi who has been “monitored and manipulated by the mind control organization” and only just realized it in October 2022. He makes a donation of more than $5 million to bring to light the brain-computer weapon accusations against Kuande Investment CEOs.
