The developer behind Zerebro staged his own suicide—complete with obituaries and tribute posts—only to be revealed alive through a letter sent to an early investor. He admitted it was a calculated move to escape without crashing the token price. The space mourned a death that never happened, marking crypto’s first known pseudocide exit.

The dev of Zerebro faked his own suicide.

Mortuary websites. Obituaries. Tribute posts.

The entire space mourned.

But now, proof has surfaced: he’s alive.

He sent a detailed letter directly to an early investor who round tripped it all.

No remorse, just a calculated exit.

“My only viable way out.”
“It would’ve tanked the price.”
“I had to disappear permanently.”

Crypto just witnessed its first pseudocide exit strategy.

Meanwhile, real developers in this space are:
• Getting doxxed
• Harassed
• Targeted nonstop
…yet they keep showing up.
They keep building.
They don’t fake death to dodge red candles.

Here’s the letter, sent privately, but now public.

The dev lives.
The legend is dead.
And the space just got weirder.
