JULIAN Assange could be about to release another set of files or could even be working with Donald Trump, according to the WikiLeaks founder’s fans concerned for his safety after he posted a cryptic message online.
The prominent hacktivist sparked a frenzy of speculation over his wellbeing after he posted tweet featuring a 60 character code and Youtube link to a popular rap song just days after his account was supposedly deleted.
Now Twitter users have claimed the code could be a sign WikiLeaks is about to leak a fresh batch of files.
Others, however, believe Julian Assange may no longer be holed up in London's Ecuadorian embassy, but instead working with US President Donald Trump.
One said: “It signals another Wikileaks drop is imminent.
Another said: “Look for something big on January 4th, 10th, and 20th.
“A lot of us now believe Julian isn't at the embassy any more. We believe he's working with Trump.”
Another asked: “Is Julian on a plane headed to the US?? Im ready for him to let the truth be known!!”
Quoting the lyrics to Paper Planes by MIA another user added: “’I got more records than the KGB’. Meaning he's got many more records in his possession.”
It comes after the US Navy’ bizarrely tweeted “Julian Assange” from its official profile on Christmas Day to complete the series of oddities.
The navy’s account later tried to clear up any confusion, writing: “This morning, an inadvertent keystroke by an authorised user of the US Navy Office of Information's Digitial Media Engagement Team caused the trending term ‘Julian Assange’ to be tweeted from the Navy's official Twitter account (@USNavy).”
The controversial figure’s account, @JulianAssange, mysteriously disappeared between 12-1am on Christmas morning.
Mr Assange’s last tweet was on December 22, leaving no hint as to why the account may have been removed.
People trying to access Assange’s Twitter account were directed to an 'error message' page before it reappeared later in the day.
It was then on New Year’s Day that Mr Assange appeared to return to Twitter, sparking fears he had died and the code was a “dead man’s switch”.
