| |
| − | | |
| − | On ''(date?)'', an invitation email was sent out to players subscribed to the mailing list. The invitation describes an Ecoin launch party, to be held on October 5. However, the email also contained a hidden message. The letters above each large bubble of champagne spelled out the message:

| − | By navigating to [http://bit.ly/sewgi bit.ly/sewgi], players were redirected to the [https://my.e-coin.com/event RSVP page] for the Ecoin launch party. At the bottom of this page, the following image was found:

| − | The image above spells out <code>SILENT SIN</code> in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_type Moon alphabet]. After responding to the RSVP page with <code>SILENT SIN</code>, the RSVP page's appearance completely changed, and displayed the following message:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | Congratulations, your eyes have been opened and we now call
| |
| − | on you to join our resistance. On October 5th, while Evil
| |
| − | Corp is blinded by its own opulence, we will seize control of
| |
| − | this Ecoin bacchanal and embarrass them on a global stage.
| |
| − | These bourgeois oppressors have fashioned themselves a golden
| |
| − | throne and placed the legs squarely on our backs. Together,
| |
| − | we will rise up and burn that throne to the ground. Stand
| |
| − | with us as we fight for a new tomorrow.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If, and only if, you will be attending the Ecoin Launch Party
| |
| − | in person, leave us your email below and you will be
| |
| − | contacted by one of our operatives with your directive soon.
| |
| − | You must enter the same email used to RSVP to the Ecoin
| |
| − | Launch Party. Do not share this page or this message.

| − | === October 4, 2017 ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | On the day prior to the Ecoin launch event, the [https://www.red-wheelbarrow.com/ Red Wheelbarrow] and [https://www.conficturaindustries.com/ Confictura] websites (both of which were used earlier in the ARG) were updated.

| − | [[File:Color by numbers.png|thumbnail|right|The color by numbers page found on the [https://www.red-wheelbarrow.com/ Red Wheelbarrow site]]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | The [https://www.red-wheelbarrow.com/ Red Wheelbarrow] site was updated with an entirely new site layout, along with a kids section. The "color by numbers" printout in the new "kids" section of the site contained several hidden messages.

| − | Second, the numbers in the sun, when converted to letters using a simple [http://rumkin.com/tools/cipher/numbers.php substitution cipher], reveal the following message:

| − | ==== Confictura ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | The [https://www.conficturaindustries.com/ Confictura] site was also updated ''(with what?)''. The visitor counter at the bottom can be adjusted manually by clicking on it. Setting the visitor counter to <code>0736565</code> ''(how did we get this???)'' causes the visitor counter to be replaced with a text box. Entering <code>blackanddeepdesires</code> ''(how did we get this???)'' causes the Confictura page to completely change, revealing a message:

| − | If you drink much from a bottle marked “poison” it is almost certain to disagree with you sooner or later.
