A Chinese man transferred more than 2,553 Ether worth $6.8 million to various addresses — including a burn address and WikiLeaks donations — while claiming that Chinese entities and corporations are controlling people with mind-control technology and devices.
On Feb. 17, an Ether (ETH) investor named Hu Lezhi transferred 500 ETH to a null address (0x0000) associated with token burn events. This unusual transfer of funds was flagged by crypto intelligence and trading platform Arkham.

Further investigation from Cointelegraph found that Lezhi made 16 high-value transactions to various addresses, including WikiLeaks donations, Ethereum foundation and a few unlabeled and burn addresses.
Mind control technology behind millions of dollars of ETH transfers
Each of the transactions contained onchain messages in which Lezhi claimed Chinese companies and entities were using “brain-computer weapons” to persecute employees and turn their victims into “puppets or complete slaves to the digital machine.”

Lezhi described himself as a computer programmer who recently realized that he had been monitored and manipulated his entire life. The people controlling his mind had intensified the harm toward him since that realization, he claimed.

Among other things, he specifically blamed Kuande Investment’s Chinese CEOs, Feng Xin and Xu Yuzhi, accusing them of using “brain-computer weapons” to persecute all of the employees. Lezhi claimed that the CEOs’ minds are also controlled by the same technology.

The transfers began on Feb. 10 and were spaced out till Feb. 17, many with a common message:
“There is a new mode of crime in which the victim is gradually deprived of his senses of desire until he becomes a complete slave to the digital machine, and if one day I become a victim of the final stage, I will leave the world.”
In total, Lezhi gave away 2,553.25 ETH to highlight his message; it has a market value of about $6.86 million as of Feb. 18.
