It is reported that since February 10, 2025, the wallet address used by Hu Lezhi has begun to post some abnormal remarks on the ETH on-chain. At that time, the article said that there is a new type of criminal mode of enslaving victims, and the victims are gradually being deprived of their desires and senses, until they are completely reduced to slaves of digital machines, and they also said that if they reach the final stage, they will choose to leave this world. On February 15, the address posted again, mentioning that with the development of brain-computer interfaces and mind-reading technology, new criminal patterns have emerged, and wild animals are becoming puppets or complete slaves of digital machines.

According to statistics, a total of 2147.91ETH was sent. Of these, 711.52 ETH was donated to WikiLeaks and 700.00 ETH was donated to Endaoment addresses.

Because after the incident, both the Solana ecosystem and the ETH ecosystem quickly appeared Meme coins with the same name.

Although Cundall has responded, the heat of the incident has not subsided. On social media, netizens are still hotly discussing, and some people sympathize with Hu Lezhi's experience and hope for a more in-depth investigation; There are also reservations about Cundall's response and look forward to seeing more evidence. This incident not only made the public think about the potential risks of mysterious technologies such as brain-controlled weapons, but also sparked a discussion about the role and impact of digital assets in society, as well as how to protect individual rights and security in the digital age. It remains to be seen how the subsequent events will develop.
