Charlotte Fang is a pseudonymous artist and entrepreneur, the founder of [[Milady]] Maker and, as of 2026, chief executive of Remilia Corporation, the collective also behind [[Redacted Remilio Babies]] and the CULT token. Fang's persona history predates Milady by roughly five years, running from an early online character called Miya through a disputed second persona and a short lived 2021 memecoin before Milady itself opened minting in August 2021. Fang is best known outside NFT circles for a single moment: a self doxx admitting "I was Miya," posted days around a viral May 2022 thread that accused the persona of posting hateful material and linked it to an online community tied to a 2018 suicide. The fallout erased most of Milady's floor price within weeks and made Fang one of crypto's most contested pseudonymous founders. Fang's accompanying announcement of stepping down from Milady leadership was, by Fang's own later description, "performative"; legal filings from a subsequent lawsuit confirmed continuous day to day control, and by August 2026 Fang remained CEO of Remilia Corporation, leading its RemiliaNET and RemiliaChat platform expansion and preparing to republish Miya's own writing as a book.

## Real identity and pronouns

Charlotte Fang's real identity has been publicly reported in press coverage of the 2023 lawsuits as Krishna Okhandiar, also rendered Krishna Pandit Okhandiar, a Nevada resident, per DL News and The Block. Both outlets report the name because Okhandiar self identified under it in a Nevada federal court filing. Press coverage of Fang has used inconsistent pronouns, some outlets "he," others "she"; Remilia's own self published wiki states Fang "uses he/him and they/them pronouns," a primary source claim not independently verified by press. This article follows the wiki's standard handling of pseudonymous trench figures, using the Fang name and handle throughout and they and them wherever a pronoun is unavoidable.

## Before Milady

Fang's first documented online persona was Miya Black Hearted Cyber Angel Baby, active 2016 to 2020 and presented, per Remilia's own materials, as a "transracial, transgender AI character" exploring accelerationist and posthuman theory. The account reportedly ran until May 2020, when it was deliberately terminated at around 10,000 followers. Remilia's own wiki states Okhandiar was born in Irvine, California to parents of Kashmiri Pandit heritage, studied architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago before dropping out and relocating to Taipei, and moved between Taipei and Los Angeles in underground experimental music scenes from roughly 2016 to 2020; none of this biographical detail has been independently corroborated by press and should be treated as Remilia's own self description, consistent with the collective's stated "post authorship" practice of blending fact and performance.

Reporting also alleges a second, disputed persona used alongside or after Miya: an account called Sonya, said to have run a private group chat variously described as a "harem of e girls" in which minors were reportedly encouraged toward eating disorders and self harm. This is tied to the pro anorexia "Kaliacc" (Kali Yuga Accelerationism) Discord server, which press reporting says enforced BMI restrictions under 19 and used the hashtag "#kaliacc." Fang's own 2026 posts push back on this specific thread, distinguishing "the miya project" from what Fang calls "sonya's nazi anorexia cult bit," saying it "gets conflated" with Miya "just because hit piece journalists only wrote about that one and they're all too lazy to look past the first page of google," and separately calling it "recancelled... by these same careerist MFA's claiming it was a real cult, that time it wasn't intentional."

Fang's first crypto project predated Milady: YAYO Corporation, founded in early 2021 with other Remilia aligned collaborators, launched the $YAYO token on the Polygon blockchain on May 24, 2021, reported as a satirical response to the wave of Shiba Inu style dog coin imitators that year. The project was short lived, after which Fang returned to crypto art, leading into Milady. Fang's own later description calls YAYO "Remilia's first serious crypto foray... as a memecoin (before being revived as an NFT/supplements line)," grouping it with Bonkler and Kagami as Remilia's recurring "post NFT financial experiments." Two independent summaries of the sequence disagree on framing, one calling it Fang's literal first project, the other noting it was later revived as an NFT and supplement brand; the sequence is documented, the framing is a variant.

Remilia announced in 2025 that a book titled "The Exegesis of Miya Black Hearted Cyber Angel Baby (2016 2020)," collecting Miya's scattered writing, would be published by Network Press, an imprint of Passage Press, translated by "C. Fang," with a stated release date of October 20, 2026. This is Remilia's own reissue of the persona's own words, not third party reporting.

## Founding Remilia and Milady

Fang maintains Remilia Corporation was founded in January 2021; former collaborators who later countersued Fang say it began instead as an informal joint art venture in September 2021, with co founder Henry Smith stating the first Milady artwork was made for his personal Twitter account as early as August 2020, predating either founding date claimed. Milady Maker itself opened minting in August 2021, though sources differ between an August 10 and an August 25 start, and did not fully mint out until April 19, 2022. See [[Milady]] for the collection's own mint mechanics and pricing.

## The May 2022 Miya controversy

On May 23, 2022, pseudonymous DefiLlama developer 0xngmi published a thread alleging Fang had operated the Miya persona and linking it to hateful material, including content described by press as advocating violence against Jewish people and using derogatory racial language, plus content disparaging women and gay people. 0xngmi additionally alleged Fang was tied to SystemSpace, an online community founded on 4chan's /r9k/ board in January 2017 by a pseudonymous user known as "Tsuki," built around a cosmology in which joining before a set date supposedly granted the joiner's consciousness access to a cyber afterlife called the "LFE system." SystemSpace was linked by critics to the 2018 suicide of a 17 year old, whose notes reportedly referenced the LFE system.

Fang responded rather than denying the link. The self doxx, quoted verbatim and dated May 21, 2022: "OK, full disclosure: I was Miya. And its toxic baggage that's hurting Milady community & poisoning the vibe." The admission was formalized in a post Fang titled "Admin Reveal," which Remilia's wiki paraphrases as confirming the Krishna Pandit Okhandiar identity behind both Miya and Charlotte Fang. Fang characterized the Miya material elsewhere as "critical satire" and an "artist's duty to explore critique," and told critics in an essay defending the work, "Cancel Miya to me or I'll fucking kill you." Fang is also on record separately saying of the real life person behind the account, in an interview quoted by press, "in real life they wouldn't even hurt a fly."

Fang announced stepping down from Milady leadership the same week, handing day to day control to community members YOJIMBO_KING and Milady_Sonoro. Fang later described that departure as "performative," saying they never actually left, and legal filings in the 2023 lawsuits confirmed continuing involvement in daily operations throughout.

A companion collection, "Milady, That B.I.T.C.H.," had already drawn separate controversy in September 2021, before the May 2022 revelations, when randomly generated avatars included shirts reading "Treblinka," the name of a Nazi death camp, and a top rarity tier named "SS." Remilia called both the product of random generation and Japanese gaming rarity conventions, a defense contested by critics given the surrounding Miya allegations.

The collection lost between 60 and 75 percent of its value within one to two and a half weeks depending on the source; see [[Milady]] for the specific floor price figures. This article notes the drop only as context for how severe the fallout was for Fang personally, since Fang retained an ownership and leadership stake in the project throughout.

A community authored rebuttal, published November 17, 2022 and echoed by a separate pseudonymous "Milady Truther" Substack piece, reframed the Miya material as collaborative "satirical performance art" that was "well understood and appreciated as performative in its time," disputed the SystemSpace suicide link by arguing Fang's own involvement was "trolling the Discord server" for "a few months" more than a year before the suicide occurred, and specifically addressed grooming allegations by stating "no victims have ever come forward" and that women named in the narrative "have said it's not true," while conceding one underage girl had briefly joined a chat and was removed once her age was discovered. The same piece alleged the original accuser, 0xngmi, had an undisclosed financial interest via a rival NFT project called Tubby Cats. This is reported as the Remilia aligned counter narrative, not a neutral finding of fact.

## Redacted Remilio Babies and continued control

[[Redacted Remilio Babies]], minted starting August 11, 2022, about three months after the controversy, is credited under Remilia's "post authorship" model to multiple contributors including Charlotte Fang and Remilia executive Michael Dragovic; see that article for the collection's own mint mechanics, lore, and the "retardio" origin it later produced. Fang's continued creative credit on Remilio, launched while Fang was nominally "stepped down" from Milady, is itself cited as evidence for the performative departure claim above.

In a 2022 to 2023 window, Fang characterized Remilia's broader ambition in explicitly maximalist terms, posting a "phases" roadmap that read in part: "Phase 1 - NFT projects / Phase 2 - Remilia World 1.0 / Phase 3 - Oil and Gas Refinery - Hydroelectric Dam - Large Scale Synthesis & Characterization Lab - YAYO Defense Contracting / Phase 4 - Remilia World 2.0 / Phase 5 - Agricultural Land Grab," and separately described pulling back Remilia's curtain as revealing "a much more serious and labyrinthine enterprise with genuine intent for world takeover and adept network cult engineering capabilities." These are Fang's own stated framing, legible as either sincere ambition or continued performance art in Remilia's established style.

## The Milady vs Milady lawsuits

On September 10, 2023, Fang, filing under the name Krishna Okhandiar, sued three former collaborators, Maxwell Roux, John Duff, and Henry Smith, in the US District Court for Nevada, alleging they tried to seize Remilia's intellectual property, funds, and social accounts to extort an equity stake.

On September 22, 2023, those three plus a fourth, Bruno Nispel, countersued in the Delaware Court of Chancery, comparing Fang to a "cult leader," claiming co founder status dating to the disputed September 2021 joint venture, and accusing Fang of unilaterally incorporating Remilia entities, removing them from the multisig treasury wallet and email accounts, draining roughly 600,000 dollars and then a further 1.7 million dollars in digital assets, and running a smear campaign. The countersuit also targeted two alleged shell companies Fang founded. Nispel is quoted in reporting on the dispute: "I started to get the suspicion that Charlie was angling to fuck me over."

Fang's own recorded response to the dispute was combative rather than conciliatory, posting of the countersuing parties, "those who threatened the blessed kingdom will face retribution without sympathy," and reiterating that the 2022 departure was "performative" and that Fang "never really left." Fang withdrew the Nevada suit earlier in 2024 per later reporting; as of a 2025 status check per Remilia's own wiki, a self published source flagged as such, the underlying Delaware countersuit's motion to dismiss remained pending judicial review, and no formal resolution or settlement of the broader asset and governance dispute was found in subsequent research.

## The March 2024 treasury drain

On March 16, 2024, blockchain security firm PeckShield flagged roughly 1 million dollars in ether moving out of a Remilia treasury wallet, with Fang, as Krishna Okhandiar, publicly saying they "got drained," implying an external hack. The exact mechanism was never confirmed in press, and the incident followed directly on the heels of the co founder ownership disputes, leaving the hack versus inside job question unresolved in public reporting.

## CULT and the Vitalik Buterin connections

Remilia launched "Cult" (ticker CULT) on Ethereum, with a presale announced June 2024 and executed around December 2024, which Fang called a "metamemecoin or memeplexcoin" tied to the Milady ecosystem; the presale raised roughly 20 to 20.5 million dollars in about six hours. Sources disagree on the peak fully diluted valuation, one citing near 845 million dollars shortly after launch, another citing launch day FDV "exceeding $600 million"; both figures are reported as a documented range rather than resolved to one number.

On January 18, 2025, Ethereum co founder [[Vitalik Buterin]] changed his X profile picture to a Milady NFT from the collection, posting simply "milady." Fang connected the moment explicitly to cypherpunk and wartime framing, stating: "Milady brings back both the irreverence and the violence of a revolutionary movement. Milady is a wartime pfp and crypto is a never ending war by design." Community observers read Buterin's choice as a signal he was entering "wartime mode" amid concerns about Ethereum's direction that period.

On January 1 to 2, 2026, Buterin bought Milady #9286 for 5.82 ETH and set it as his X profile picture again, posting "Welcome to 2026! Milady is back," which drove a reported floor price jump; sources vary on the exact percentage, one dated report citing about 30 percent within 24 hours, another citing up to 50 percent depending on the tracking window.

## RemiliaNET, RemiliaChat, and the CROPS episode

Remilia launched RemiliaNET, described as the identity and achievement tracking service layer for a planned full social platform, on September 19, 2025, with a further product called RemiliaChat described as an upcoming spiritual successor serving what Remilia executive Michael Dragovic called "the diaspora of chan culture." In Dragovic's words: "We plan to save the entire culture of the internet, and the world through it, in the same way we did for crypto," and on moderation philosophy, "90% of moderation comes from the way you design the layout of your site." Fang is described in the same coverage as having "been preparing the community for this expansion for years."

On March 13, 2026, the Ethereum Foundation published a 38 page internal governance document titled "Mandate," organized around the acronym CROPS (censorship resistance, open source, privacy, security), illustrated throughout in an anime style press explicitly described as "seemingly inspired by the controversial Miladys NFT series." The Foundation reportedly asked staff to sign a loyalty pledge affirming CROPS or face expulsion, which it did not officially confirm when The Block sought comment. Optimism's Mark Tyneway said "The issue is whether or not people support CROPS... the issue is how the EF is going about it," and Bob Summerwill said "Loyalty pledges are really unhealthy, and that is what has got people worked up." A wave of Ethereum Foundation departures followed across the following months, contemporaneous with but not established by reporting as caused by the document. Buterin affirmed the mandate on X, committing to "exclusive and energetic focus" on its implementation "until my last day at the EF." No direct involvement by Fang in authoring or designing the Mandate document was reported; the connection to Fang and Milady is aesthetic and cultural, not a confirmed collaboration.

## Current status

As of August 2026, Fang posts actively as @CharlotteFang77 on X, an account with roughly 59,269 followers as scraped in mid 2026, and continues to identify Remilia content with the recurring line "Miya spoke of this" attached to reposted material. Fang is described in current reporting and by Remilia's own materials as CEO and creative director of Remilia Corporation, actively leading its 2025 to 2026 platform expansion and the upcoming October 20, 2026 publication of "The Exegesis of Miya Black Hearted Cyber Angel Baby," which reissues the original controversial persona's own writing as a literary artifact rather than distancing from it.

As recently as May 2026, Fang was still actively litigating the historical record of the Miya and Kaliacc allegations in public replies on X, for example directly rebutting a claim that "Fang belonged to the white supremacist group Kaliacc" by arguing Miya's use of "kali/acc" referenced Julius Evola's "kali yuga" as a counterpart to Nick Land's accelerationism and was "a notable refutation of biological racism, specifically rejecting white supremac[ism]." The allegations continue to recur in trench discourse independent of Fang's own posting; a July 10, 2026 post summarized the reputation in dice roll format: "Charlotte Fang is *rolls dice* Miya BPD God who was *flips coin* one of the founders of Remilia and they're all in *pulls card from deck* a 1930s-style far-right movement," a characterization there disputed and attributed to that poster's framing rather than established fact, evidence the controversy remains a live, contested part of Fang's public identity rather than a closed 2022 chapter.

## Legacy

Fang is credited as the founder whose persona controversy became a recurring test case in [[the trenches]] for how pseudonymous reputational scandal interacts with NFT market value, and whose "post authorship" philosophy, crediting collective and sometimes anonymous or many handed contribution to a nominally singular character, directly shaped how Remilio, and by extension the [[retardio]] lineage, is credited. See [[Milady]] and [[Redacted Remilio Babies]] for the collections' own legacy sections.
