Jeffy Yu, co-founder of Zerebro, who was believed to have committed suicide during a Pump.fun livestream on May 4, was recently seen at his parents’ home in the Crocker-Amazon neighborhood, The San Francisco Standard revealed . The developer, who was discovered by The Standard on Wednesday, looked shaken and uneasy as he stepped outside his family’s two-story home. Wearing a T-shirt, shorts, and flip-flops, Yu seemed nervous and confused, the report stated. After faking his own death, launching a memorial meme coin, and sprinkling enough on-chain breadcrumbs to summon on-chain sleuths from every corner of the crypto community on X, Yu expressed concern about being seen in public. He said he’s planning to relocate his parents. When confronted about the false death report and the $LLJEFFY meme coin, which was released shortly after his staged death as a memorial token, Yu refused to answer. The reporter was asked to leave moments later. Yu’s wallet stays suspiciously active despite reports of his death On-chain analysts spotted unusual activity from crypto addresses belonging to Yu after reports surfaced that he had taken his own “exit.” According to crypto commentator @RepeatAfterVee, Yu’s crypto address, which is linked to the creation of $ZEREBRO and $LLJEFFY is still alive and very active, offloading tokens and shuffling funds across known wallets just days after reports of his death. These transfers triggered a wave of skepticism across crypto community members. Some questioned whether Yu’s reported death was genuine. Data from Bubblemaps shows that accounts linked to Yu moved up to $1.4 million in crypto assets after his supposed death, leading to accusations of a “pseudocide exit strategy.” On May 6, Daniele Sestagalli, the founder of the Wonderland protocol, published a letter that he said he received from Yu, in which the developer allegedly admitted to fabricating his death. Yu described the act as a last resort to prevent a collapse in the prices of Zerebro and Opaium. Legacy.com, the obituary platform where the tribute was posted, has since removed the listing without comment. $ZEREBRO is currently trading at around $0.048, up 24% in the last 24 hours, per CoinGecko. The token is down nearly 94% from its all-time high set in January.
