What we know so far:
Q started as an anon trying to lure boomers into buying old laptops. His operation started to get some noticing in pol and was coopted by two 4chan moderators, Pamphlet Anon ( Coleman Rogers) and BaruchtheScribe (Paul Furber), this mods lost their positions for reasons unknown, Pamphlet Anon was profiting with his streaming by reading Qanon drops, and the operation grew with help of other e-celebs such as Tracey Diaz. The entire operation was facilitated by 8kun co-owner and admin Ron Watkins.
Its clear now that there was no high level classified information being posted on 8kun. It was all a scam. All of then including Ron Watkins received donations and also sold Q based merch. Ron Watkins pushed the Qanon agenda on twitter until the last day.
Proof that Pamphlet Anon was posting as Qanon:

>Mod larping as Q has a tripcode>Forgets to put the hashtag in to activate it>A bunch of code (the password) is left in the name space, freely available to steal>Someone uses it>It's the Q-Anon tripcode, proving that the mod doing it wrong was him the whole timeleaked email from one of the moderators outing the scheme:
pastebin.com/dZbP9hCtWhy does Qanon identity matters ? Qanon did irreparable damage to the right wing. The group behind Qanon created a dangerous cult following that can be directly tied to the Capitol riot. People have died, people have lost their jobs and family, people have gone crazy and gone to jail because of this. Just as reminder, Qanon never named the jew and can possibly be JDIF demoralization.
Why now ? This information have been out since 2018 but unfortunately it seemed more fun to people to "trust the plan" since having the entire government arrested was much more interesting then knowing that a few e-celebs were making bank out of a larp.
