Blockchain investigator ZachXBT reported that the WhiteRock Finance engineer, previously claimed to have died in a missile strike, is still active online. He says the engineer maintains activity on GitHub and Trello.
ZachXBT said in a recent post on X that, “The engineer who you claim ‘passed away by a missile’ is still active on GitHub & Trello. Seems he must have been revived from the dead—it’s truly a miracle.”
WhiteRock Finance had earlier announced in a X made on July 2, 2025 that lead cryptography engineer Amin Razavi died after being struck by a missile in Iran. The company described Razavi as “a brilliant mind and cherished friend who helped shape the future of our industry. Gone far too soon. RIP 1983-2025.”
The conflicting reports have drawn attention from crypto community members. Many are questioning the accuracy of the company’s statement as observers note that the engineer’s online activity is ongoing and publicly visible. Experts say WhiteRock should clarify his status.
Founder Arrest Adds to Company Controversy
Earlier in July, WhiteRock founder Ildar Ilham was arrested in the UAE. He is set to be extradited to the Netherlands over his involvement in a $30 million ZKasino scam. The case has affected the company’s reputation in the crypto community.
Moreover, the engineer, declared dead by the company, being seen active on GitHub and Trello has raised questions about WhiteRock’s trustworthiness as an on-chain brokerage for tokenized equities and bonds. As a result, users are calling upon the company to provide clarification, but WhiteRock has yet to respond publicly.
This incident shows how social media and blockchain platforms can allow observers to track activity in real time and prompt scrutiny from the broader community. While no conclusive wrongdoing by the company has been confirmed, this has raised red flags for investors and the entire crypto community.
Market watchers and the community are waiting for WhiteRock Finance to address the discrepancies around the engineer’s status and officially give a clarification statement.
