In plain English

This repository advertises a Windows tool that makes a cryptocurrency wallet display a fake balance. According to the README, it works by modifying what a wallet application shows on screen locally, without touching the actual blockchain, so the displayed amount does not reflect any real funds. The stated uses include showing a custom USDT amount, injecting fake transaction history, and making those changes persist even after the wallet is restarted. The tool claims to support a wide range of wallet software, including browser extensions like MetaMask and Trust Wallet, desktop applications like Exodus and Electrum, and command-line clients for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other networks. It operates by patching the wallet's local storage, intercepting API responses, or injecting code into the wallet process, depending on the wallet type. The README presents this as a testing or demonstration tool, but the topics attached to the repository, which include "crypto-wallet-fake-balance," "fake-balance," and "bitcoin-flash-transactions," describe what it actually does: displaying cryptocurrency balances that are not real. Tools of this kind are typically used to deceive other people into believing a payment has been made or that a wallet holds funds it does not hold. There is no source code visible in the README, only a password-protected ZIP file distributed through GitHub releases. The repository has 14 stars and no description beyond the topics.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1
