Backstory

Banojxot Xuh is a YouTube ARG that was posted to several country-themed subreddits, and appears to have a strong political focus. It has many codes hidden throughout the video and references to Slovakia along with a strong focus with the date, June 15h, 2017.

Originally, the video was posted in the England Subreddit but the user was banned, the post and the video deleted.

Then, on May 13th, an image was posted in the Slovakian Subreddit by an user called Banojxot (same as the YT channel) featuring a QR code that leads to our video with the words "Get Ready" in red and the date 15.6.17, or June 15th, 2017.

Later, on May 18th, the user Hamburger__96 posted a photo of a sort of flyer featuring the same image posted in r/Slovakia and the number 0023 handwritten in the back in the Germany subreddit. It is speculated that Hamburger__96 is the same person behind the Banojxot account on Reddit, although this is unclear.










Hidden Messages In The Videos

First Video

Second Video

A second video was uploaded on the 21st of May, called 15-6-17.v2

In this video Banojxot Xuh has hidden many messages, one of them being "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is God's gift, that's why we call it the present." More text similar to the first being that it is not encoded is "Black and white is abstract; color is not. Looking at a black and white photograph, you are already looking at a strange world".There is also imagery showing a Euro and a US dollar burning with the text "I hope you know what you are doing" in front of it, implying that the governments of the world, particularly in the US and Europe are making mistakes that could have easily been avoided. In the video you can here the "War on terror speech", the "9/11 broadcasting", and then an unidentified anthem. The encoded messages are in Caesar shift and are "LMV SLFI DROO XSZMTV VEVIBGSRMT" which once decrypted reads, "one hour will change everything...". The second one, "JU XJMM IBQQFO BHBJO" deciphers into "T WILL HAPPEN AGAIN."

Emails

Emails were sent out and Banojxot Xuh replied with a variety of similar images. We currently are ordering based off of the amount of people written on the picture. Almost all have a Slovakian flag and a variant of 15.06.2017.

Twitter

The e-mails show us this twitter account through a ROT or caesarian cipher.

The second twitter post shows these coordinates:

51°50′45″N 16°34′50″E --> rondo Solidarności, Leszno (Poland)

51°50′N 5°52′E --> Professor Cornelissenstraat, Nijmegen (the Netherlands)

53°33′N 10°00′E --> Steinstraße, near St. Jacobi church, Hamburg (Germany)


The third post has presumably a hash in it (signed with the letter B for his name) 9ce09f56373a96112527aebe5af12f632bd8f0c40132dd76801ad3437e6fdb42 ~B
