In addition to AI, brain-computer interfaces are also seen as a "high-potential industry of the future", and Musk's Neuralink has brought new hope to many blind and other disabled people.
However, today, a programmer named "hulezhi" has sparked widespread discussion in the role of a "brain-computer slave" - he sent 500 ETH to a black hole address to make on-chain calls, with a hint of "unmasking the Terminator's human hero". Odaily will provide a brief introduction to this incident and the corresponding tokens in this article.
I, hulezhi, a victim of brain-computer weapons
According to monitoring by lmk.fun monitoring, a certain wallet transferred 500 ETH (about $1.38 million) to a black hole address to be destroyed and left a message in Chinese, involving the use of brain-computer weapons by the boss of an investment company to persecute employees.
In addition, the address made three donations to WikiLeaks (Odaily note: WikiLeaks is a non-profit international media organization founded by Assange, which operates in the public eye by publishing secret documents and other media materials provided by anonymous sources and insiders) today (591.6 ETH, 50 ETH and 35 ETH); donated 700 ETH, about $1.87 million, to the Endaoment address; and donated 133 ETH, about $354,000, to the Ethereum Foundation address.
IDM message content
This is the crypto protagonist who has sparked countless on-chain spectators today - reportedly, he is a programmer and entrepreneur named Hu Lezhi (hulezhi).
It is worth mentioning that this is not his first on-chain post.
On February 10 this year, the address posted that "a new mode of crime of enslaving victims has emerged, where the victim's sensory desires are gradually deprived until they become completely enslaved as digital machines, and if one day I become the final victim, I will choose to leave this world."
On February 15, the address posted again that "with the continuous development of brain-computer interfaces and mind-reading technology, a new mode of crime has emerged: wild animals have become puppets or complete slaves of digital machines."
And the content of today's post finally revealed the original intention of the address: to accuse the boss of an investment company of using brain-computer weapons to persecute employees, but they themselves are also victims.
Speculation from the outside world: the crazy act of the E-Guard, or a real victim of brain-computer interface?
According to information on the Etherscan website, the address has now frequently received small transfers from different addresses along with on-chain messages, with countless people hoping to get in touch with hulezhi and get some ETH in return or donations.
At the same time, the address's transfer behavior has also sparked speculation from overseas bloggers.
According to crypto KOL and Cluster founder Foobar, he posted on the X platform: "The ETH/BTC exchange rate rose 4% today, which means that some new disaster will happen in the next 24 hours." He later added in the comments: "Ethereum holders are so shocked by the price volatility that they are sending hundreds of millions of dollars to a zero address for destruction. Violently cracking the ultrasound money (Odaily note: referring to ETH, which has long touted itself as ultrasound money)."
Foobar's sharp comments on the 500 ETH destruction event
The hot spot is not moving, but the MEME coins are leading: hulezhi CA has been released
As hulezhi's "brain-computer slave declaration" of destroying 500 ETH gradually spreads, MEME coins on the chain have also appeared.
Solana ecosystem: hulezhi, market cap temporarily reported at $1.2 million
The Solana ecosystem, as the main battlefield for MEME coins, has still taken the lead in reacting, with someone directly issuing a MEME coin of the same name on pump.fun - hulezhi, according to GMGN data, the peak price once broke through $0.002, and the market cap once broke through $2 million, but has now fallen sharply, temporarily reported at $1.2 million.

ETH ecosystem: HULEZHI, market cap temporarily reported at $4.3 million
The ETH ecosystem MEME coin of the same name HULEZHI, where hulezhi released his on-chain message, has also reacted quickly, with a current market cap of $4.3 million, a price of $0.043, and a previous market cap of over $5 million.

Epilogue: An on-chain performance art worth 2,010 ETH, about $5.55 million
According to Hu Lezhi's own account: "Since October 2022, I have realized that I have been under the surveillance and manipulation of a brain control organization since birth. And when I became aware of the existence of the brain control organization, they were also increasing their harm to me, and these two years have been very painful for me, and now my human dignity has been completely lost, so I have decided to leave this world, and I also hope that this ugly world will be destroyed soon."
Some speculate that this move may be a silent cry and resolute resistance against brain-computer interfaces, although it is done in an extremely extreme and incomprehensible way for most people.
However, the price of this on-chain performance art is just over 2,001 ETH ($5.55 million).
