A viral video claiming to show North Korean leader Kim Jong Un urging citizens to buy Bitcoin has sparked controversy. The clip, circulating on social media, shows Kim seemingly issuing a command for people to purchase Bitcoin and utilize borrowed funds to maximize their investment. However, this is not authentic footage of Kim Jong Un. The video utilizes deepfake technology to falsely link the audio from Michael Saylor, CEO of MicroStrategy, with visuals of Kim Jong Un. While the video claims Kim’s speech advises buying Bitcoin, it actually features Saylor emphasizing the superiority of Bitcoin as a digital asset. The disconnect between lip movements and audio in the video, combined with the verifiable source of Saylor’s speech, confirms its deepfake nature. This misleading clip highlights the prevalence of misinformation within the cryptocurrency community, urging viewers to verify sources before sharing sensational claims. Notably, the actual speaker in the video is not Kim Jong Un but Michael Saylor.
