In 2012, a strange picture started circulating on the internet, which was published in a random chat on 4chan. The sender of the image, the mysterious 3301, claimed to be looking for intelligent people through solving the encrypted message. This launched a large-scale competition known as Cicada 3301. To solve the puzzle, participants had to decipher complex ciphers hidden in images, text and the web. One of the most famous solvers was 15-year-old Marcus Wanner, who found clues using various cryptographic methods such as Caesar cipher and steganography. The puzzle took participants from the digital world to physical locations around the world using QR codes and encrypted messages that ultimately directed them to hidden sites via the TOR network. Participants were tested in a variety of ways, including generating encryption keys and solving unique codes. The entity or entities behind Cicada 3301 remained a mystery, but it was believed to be either a government organization, a secret society, or a large technology company looking for talent. Over the years, the riddles continued, but no one has been able to find out with certainty who or what is behind Cicada 3301. Lords Templar: • WARRIOR KNIGHTS TEMPLARY - era...
