Sean Spicer Tweeted a Bitcoin Address - Not His Password
By Laurelai Bailey
On January 26th of 2017 Sean Spicer using his verified twitter account tweeted the string n9y25ah7
Now, around this time so called tech experts in the mainstream press assumed multiple things:
That this tweet was accidental.
That this was either some kind of quickly changed twitter password, or just a random string of letters.
Neither is true.
Its an identity confirmation code.
Take a look at this.

Why did he tweet it out, though?

(16,420 posts)3. Probably to prove identity?

(19,559 posts)7. Maybe.
I don't understand how that stuff works to be honest.

(43,173 posts)5. It's an SOS
He's being held against his will and being forced to spew propoganda for the Trump administration.
This must relate to the ransom somehow.

Makes as much sense as anything else in this administration.
