Speculation Mounts Over Zerebro Founder’s Alleged Staged Death

On-chain transactions and a purported letter from Jeffy Yu have ignited speculation that the Zerebro co-founder may have faked his suicide to exit the crypto industry. Initial reports on May 4 claimed Yu died by suicide during a Pump.fun livestream, with a graphic video and subsequent obituary on Legacy.com fueling the narrative.

The story unraveled when the obituary vanished and blockchain activity suggested Yu’s continued involvement. The incident underscores crypto’s reputation for orchestrated drama, though no direct market impact has been observed. Pump.fun, the platform at the center of the controversy, continues operating without addressing the allegations.
