  • A thirteen-part thread that links five identities by commit-email forensics: the GitHub account icetrust0212 and a deleted account trust0212 both authoring under one address, and a deleted trust0212-fantohm and a still-active resplegend both authoring under a second. The thread states that resplegend's commits are literally authored under the name trust0212-fantohm, which is the corroboration it rests the grouping on. The Milan Zubic name is the one the identity used on job applications. This persona is already recorded on this site from tayvano's research and from lazarus.group under the same name; the entries merge on the name and the address they share. The organisations named in the thread, including the project whose credential-verification code the thread says this developer wrote, are the parties affected by the work rather than indicators, and are not recorded as such. The thread was also republished on lazarus.day and captured on archive.today; the X post is cited here as the original. The address zaza.liveedu@gmail.com is the dominant author on the commits in this account's own GitHub repositories, recovered 2026-09-12; it is the operator's own commit address, not a forked repo's upstream author. The address milanzubic1120@gmail.com is the dominant author on the commits in this account's own GitHub repositories, recovered 2026-09-12; it is the operator's own commit address, not a forked repo's upstream author.

  • A fourteen-post thread on the accounts that worked on Tokamak Network's bridge front end, marketplace and subgraph between November 2023 and February 2025, read as a single cell from the primary account's following list, commit-email forensics, renamed and deleted handles, and account-creation dates clustered within days of each other. Every value here is stated in the thread; post thirteen is the researcher's own address map for the cell. The same account the researcher's Verida thread documents under this name, placed in this cell by the primary account's following list and named in the address map with its earlier trust0212 handle; post twelve is where the cell touches the wider network, through the accounts this one follows.

  • Entry in the lazarus.group DPRK IT-worker registry, which asserts that these accounts belong to one operator. The registry publishes no methodology, so this is recorded as its claim and not as a finding of this site. Its evidence links and its cross-references to other operators in the same registry are deliberately not reproduced as indicators.

  • Found on 13 September 2026 by probing every account handle this site already holds for this operator against dev.to, and read from the profile's own public API. An account exists under trust0212, a login the index already carries for this persona on another platform. It gives a joined date of Oct 8, 2021. It displays "Trust-Full stack", a display name rather than a person's name. The profile links a GitHub account, icetrust0212. The handle is what links this account to the rest; nothing here establishes that one person holds both, and a display name on a profile is a name the account presents, not an identification.

  • Found on 18 September 2026 by putting trust0212, one of the logins the index already holds for this operator, to Maigret's username search and then asking Trello's public member endpoint, which answers 404 for a name that does not exist. The member record states the display name trust and no bio; a display name that restates the handle stays in the note. The handle is what links this account to the rest; nothing here establishes that one person holds both, and a display name on a profile is a name the account presents, not an identification.

  • Read on 20 September 2026 by walking the commit history of every repository on the GitHub account github.com/icetrust0212, already held under this persona, and tallying the author line on every commit. A commit's author line is what the holder configured their git client with rather than anything the profile page chooses to display, so it recovers addresses the account never states. The address recorded here was not already in this index: sergeyfedorenkodev@outlook.com authored 271 commits across 35 of its repositories, commits as "trust0212". Each is admitted because it commits under a name the account itself uses, which is the test that separates the holder's own address from the original author of a repository copied in. Addresses belonging to unrelated developers whose work appears in these repositories are deliberately not recorded, and an address is evidence that whoever held it wrote those commits rather than proof of who holds the account.

  • Read on 28 September 2026 from the site's own page and the script bundles it loads. The portfolio links a LinkedIn profile beside the resplegend GitHub account and the milanzubic1120 address this site already holds.
