What's up with Edward Snowden?

in crypto •  8 years ago  (edited)

He's tweeted this sha256 just to delete it shortly after.

Is this a password? Did he miss a security check in an this is an 'insurance' meant for specific people?

it could be a key for an encrypted insurance file

found this old news from 2013
http://qz.com/97885/how-edward-snowdens-encrypted-insurance-file-might-work/
and this image of another tweet he made some days ago
it says "Did you work with me? Have we talked since 2013? Please recontact me securely, or talk to batongellman. It´s time."

Good catch .. Heres the text ffdae96f8dd292374a966ec8b57d9cc680ce1d23cb7072c522efe32a1a7e34b0 . Its not an ipfs reference as far as I can tell..

It's a Game Genie code guys... i just got 99 lives in Megaman by using it. Thanks Snowden! :D

makes sense, I think we got a winner :D

LMAO I just laughed too hard at this! Hmmm, maybe I need to go dust off my NES and play a few levels.

Haha! good one.
Do you think you will end the game with 99 lives? i think its to hard.

ROTFLMAO. I had almost forgotten about the Game Genie and then I saw your comment. hahaha Priceless. :-D

Maybe it's code of some kind. Maybe he is trying to tell us something. Too bad we don't have a real life Sherlock to crack it!! :D

I hope he's fine, we need more Edwards around the world

I think he will be making a later post explaining what to do with it. Hold on to that number.

Saw that earlier too. Very curious... I bet someone's going to get to the bottom of this.

Interesting, maybe we will now more soon... :)

It looks like an Ethereum address.

Doesn't check out on Etherscan. But yes, Ethereum does use sha256, but so do a lot of other platforms for various reasons.

The weirdest thing for me wasn't the sha256 mystery, but the fact that he uses ...twitter after all he's said about social networks...

I wonder if he would like steem...

Edward snowden is a hero!

it is a jailbreak for new iphones)

I doubt snowden cares much for iphones...

it was just a joke) he cares even of electricity wires in a room for not spot himself out
