An enigmatic whistleblower has sparked global intrigue after sending $2 million in Ether to WikiLeaks alongside explosive claims of militarised “brain-computer” technology. The transactions, laced with cryptic on-chain messages, allege widespread human rights violations tied to nanochip mind control.
WikiLeaks
The nonprofit WikiLeaks, renowned for publishing classified leaks, received the funds from “Hu Lezhi,” a pseudonymous programmer. His claims start at Shanghai-based hedge fund WizardQuant, which faces direct accusations from Lezhi, who claims its executives deployed “brain-computer weapons” on employees.
WikiLeaks has a history of crypto donations, notably receiving over $20,000 in Bitcoin from Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin in 2022. WizardQuant, founded in 2014, specialises in quantitative trading across stocks and derivatives. Its executives, Feng Xin and Xu Yuzhi, were named in Lezhi’s messages.
Breaking Down the Multi-Million Dollar Crypto Trail
Between February 10 and 17, Lezhi transferred 711.5 ETH ($1.95 million) to WikiLeaks across five transactions; this is confirmed by blockchain records confirm. Notably, 591.6 ETH ($1.6 million) arrived on February 17. Simultaneously, Lezhi burned 603 ETH ($1.65 million) by sending it to Ethereum’s irretrievable “burn address.”
Additionally, 700 ETH moved to “ndao.eth” and 33 ETH to an unnamed “Grant Provider” wallet. In total, Lezhi redistributed 2,047 ETH ($5.6 million), abruptly halting activity from the “0x1a19” address afterward.

His Chilling Claims
Lezhi’s on-chain messages allege China’s military uses nanochips, base stations, and radios to manipulate citizens. “Brain-computer chips have been deployed militarically on a large scale,” He wrote, claiming victims lose autonomy until becoming “slaves to the digital machine.”
The whistleblower further asserted personal suffering, stating he was “monitored and manipulated since birth” by a shadowy “mind control organisation.” In a harrowing final note, Lezhi declared intent to “leave this world,” denouncing global systems as “ugly.”
WizardQuant’s Silence
WizardQuant, linked to Lezhi’s allegations, has not responded to Cointelegraph’s requests for comment. The firm, operating in Shanghai and Beijing, employs quantitative strategies for stock and options trading. Co-founders Feng Xin (Chief Risk Officer) and Xu Yuzhi (Chief Investment Officer) oversee 51–200 staff, per LinkedIn.
Lezhi accused both executives of weaponising brain tech to “persecute” employees, suggesting even they might be “controlled.”
Blockchain analysts speculate Lezhi was an employee who had access to WizardQuant’s funds. That he, as a financial act of defiance, spent on redirecting them to WikiLeaks and burn addresses.
Crypto Community Reacts
The incident has ignited fervent debate. Some theorists posit Lezhi was a disgruntled WizardQuant employee with access to company wallets. Others highlight the ethical quandaries of blockchain’s irreversible transactions, questioning how such large sums moved undetected.
Crypto observers, however, remain divided on the legitimacy of the claims. “Either this is a geopolitical bombshell or an elaborate exit scam,” remarked blockchain investigator ZachXBT on X.
Unanswered Questions and the Road Ahead
Critical mysteries linger: Who controls the “ndao.eth” wallet? Why was WikiLeaks the only target? While Lezhi’s allegations remain unverified, the saga underscores blockchain’s dual role as a tool for transparency and subterfuge.
Authorities have yet to comment. Nevertheless, the case amplifies calls for stricter crypto oversight and deeper scrutiny of emerging neurotechnology. As WikiLeaks weighs publishing potential leaks, the world watches, waiting for the next clue in this high-stakes crypto mystery where lives hang in the balance.
