Everyone loves capes even outside of the account community capes are the most sought after cosmetic in all of minecraft and for good reason out of the nearly 40 million minecraft java accounts less than 30 000 have an official cape and those that don’t have to make do With a cheap optifine cape or something similar now don’t get me wrong these capes are far from common but they have become more and more common over the years and with the new migration cape that mojing will be implementing within a few months it’s likely that normal cape accounts Will lose at least some of the rarity however accounts aren’t limited to just one cape through attending mankind events winning tournaments working for mojing and more numerous players have managed to have two or more capes to their name now since 2017 there’s only been one way To do this and that’s to apply capes via minecon codes all of which stopped working just a few months back and even that has its limits since 2011 capes were applied by username this method only allows you to get a maximum of four capes and that’s If you were willing to spend the roughly four thousand dollars it would cost to buy these from third party traders not to mention the days weeks months even it would take to find one for sale but what about those that have gone beyond this what about accounts with Five capes or in the case of some even more than that well their history is extensive but until now it’s been largely unknown to the public so in today’s episode of minecraft uncovered we explore the history of minecraft’s pentacape accounts now there are 18 of these known to have Ever existed with two of them having capes removed and six or seven more being locked depending who you ask that means that just half of these incredibly rare accounts are still around all of which are very active there are other accounts that might have 5 capes but we’ll talk about those later For now we’ll be looking into the confirmed 5ks going from those i’ve talked about in the past or don’t know much about to accounts with incredibly long detailed and honestly rather chaotic histories starting with the persian pair now i’ve talked about these several times before like in my video about lost capes last Month so i won’t go into too much detail about their story if you want the full story you probably should check that video out anyways the basic tale behind them is that they each got stolen by polish hackers alyssa was persian golf and ex citrus and hareby with persian cat both of Which were part of a small group of hexacape or six cape accounts all of which are now unusable after a few months of them being played on by these hackers both accounts were locked and all capes were removed of course like i said there is a much longer story involving these accounts And their owners the name mc’s being sold illegal name changes and so on i am trying to keep this video somewhat brief though and it’s already looking like it’ll be about 20 minutes long so anything i can do to shorten it i will that also means i should stop talking about it so Let’s move on next up we have andrew km rock germany and chad the dj all three of which are owned by well-known server owners and have never been sold locked hacked or anything like that to the best of my knowledge andrew km owns the eco city craft server One of the largest economy servers to ever exist he’s also the only one of these three who’s in the community as he has an account on mcmarket which he doesn’t really use except for earlier this year when he gave out a few hundred dollars to random members of the site for No obvious reason good guy andrew rock germany is owned by some german guy as i’m sure you could guess by the name who owns and operates a server called unlimited world it seems to be decently big but as i don’t speak german i don’t really know much about it other that there was Recently a halloween event that includes jump and runs which i’m assuming means there’s parkour on the server the front page of their website is also a little bit weird and it has a bunch of surveys that seem to be related to account security asking about transaction ids Emails migration and so on i also want to mention that this guy has the username rock on another account so he definitely seems to be aware of how rare his accounts are but like i said they’ve never been sold finally we have chad the dj now capes.cc which is a great website For those of you that are interested in cape accounts says that chad the dj is locked i have no idea where they got this info from but i can’t find anything backing it up so i’m assuming that it’s still free it’s been active in the past few months And chad himself actually used to own mcgamer’s massive mcsg server i don’t see any suspicious activity that would make me think it’s been hacked or anything though so i really think that lock thing on capes.cc must have just been a mistake if not though nc gamer might be in some serious trouble Now we have the content creators one of which is a very big youtuber and one of which is a not quite so big streamer we’ll start with the youtuber and that youtuber is of course ant venom and has the five minecon capes and he has videos on youtube from the 2011 2013 2015 and 2018 man cons the official minecraft wiki says he was in there in 2016 but interestingly enough nothing for 2012. who knows maybe mojing gave him the cape anyways and to be honest he’s one of the few people where i can honestly say he deserves it Ant has been recently looking more into the account community and as you can see on his name mc he surrounds himself with og names dupe accounts special capes and more he was even spotted on block mania a few times recently and i have two screenshots to share with you Of some huge cape lineups he was part of i don’t want to talk too much about him since i might make a separate video about his stay on youtube and how it’s affected minecraft videos as a whole but he’s an interesting case to be sure the other content creator is a streamer By the name of jefska owning the first og penta cape on this list jeff like i said jeffska isn’t nearly as big as ant venom but he’s still doing very well for himself and arguably better than me so he’s not one to be ignored unfortunately it was that status as a Famous og penta cape that resulted in his account being stolen just over a month ago by someone known as debug now debug has had his fair share of hacked accounts and some are even still around like a debug emojiang cape but the most common outcome is that he loses These accounts just days after as you’ll be seeing later in the video that’s exactly what happened here too because jeff ended up back in the original owner’s hands after just three days where it stayed ever since hopefully jeff will put on 2fa when microsoft account migration comes out Because i definitely think he’ll need it after jeff is the legit question mark accounts being zun william and chelsea zhan is extremely active on black mania and hypixel and seems to have been owned by him as long as the recorded history goes i’ve tried contacting him but he says he Doesn’t have a discord or anywhere to chat which i’ve been told is just a straight apply no hard feelings though wham is a bit of a weirder situation it was inactive for a very very long time but returned around october 7th interestingly even though the account was created In 2014 it has capes from 2011 2012 and 2013 minecons of course 2012 and 2013 capes were applied via code so you could still get them after minecon was over but the 2011 minecon cape was applied via username meaning that once minecom was over that was it my personal guess is that this Account was owned by somebody that has close ties to mojang but doesn’t actually work there the account was created with the name dedicated in february of 2014 but was completely unused for an entire year until name changes came out in february of 2015. to me that suggests that name changes Might have been planned to come out a year earlier and since there are documented name changes going far beyond february 2015 it’s very possible that was the case once name changes were released though the name was changed from dedicated to wham referencing a meme from minecon 2013. Once again this just shows that it was clearly planned in advance so he must have had plans to name change around 2014 when the account was created then at some point after the name was changed somebody at mojing applied all the capes to his account and i’ve heard They removed from alt accounts that had a cape each that he combined onto the web account is that really fair who knows who cares all that matters is that it’s easily one of the cleanest five capes out there in the last of the three remaining legit five capes is chelsea Now you do have to stretch the definition of legit a little bit to fit chelsea in here but it’s a lot different than any of the other accounts we’ll be talking about after this so i thought it was best to put it here instead the history starts all the way Back in early 2016 where it was rumored that the account was bought off an alt website when nobody knew if it had capes though i don’t know how true that story is by october of the same year it made its way to an mcm user by the name of Bob newman who sold it to a band user known as dexu on january 28th of 2017 as a triple cape with a 2011 2012 and either 2013 or 2015 game just under three months later dexu sold it to sapphire luna also known as chelsea for just 380 dollars Chelsea decided to keep the account and ended up applying a 2016 and a 2013 or 2015 cape to it whichever one it was missing as well as sniping the og name chelsea onto the account it seems to still be active and unlocked since it hasn’t been traded in nearly four years now Also before we move on i found this ancient video footage of the account from late 2014 presumably by the original owner back when the username on the account had never been changed from krog i don’t know if he’s still active but if so he doesn’t seem to have a problem with chelsea owning His incredibly rare account and finally we have the not so legit accounts some of these have either very private histories or very short histories but others are long enough to be made into a video just by themselves once again since i don’t want the video to be two Hours long i’ll be using a pretty short history for each starting with wiz852 this account was inactive for a very very long time but just recently was acquired by someone in the community most likely by being pulled through mojang support the name was changed to zack the king back in late september but It was changed back to wiz852 just a few weeks ago so it might have been taken back by the original owner along with blizz is underscore nbl heim underscore another account that appears to have been stolen off the owner the earliest mention of it being in the community That i could find is of a guy named kev who got the account through comcast surprisingly back when it only had two of the five capes cashed kev says it got pulled by the original owner and name changed but everyone else i’ve talked to says it was stolen off kev by another Guy by the name of bzl who also owns some other insane accounts like nose yard god wood and akron man 1 which has the exclusive millionth customer star cape apparently bzl was trying to sell nblheim earlier this year but since then the account has gone silent and i haven’t heard anything about its Whereabouts for over half a year outside of the assumption that it’s been locked by mojang for suspicious activity the last one of these with a somewhat short history is red and that’s mainly because it’s very private what i can say though is that the owner history is not the best As of recently the account is thought to be locked with the only reliable info i can find being this clipped from an x in a box interview with fraud and andre so the next one is red i got locked on the person gavin sold to nothing like this i thought two months ago Yeah same thing with pink me and misfit sold it too what’s his name debug and he got locked all the accounts after this are going to have their own section because the histories are very extensive and we’ll be starting with noblemen now i forgot to mention three accounts In my video about lost capes but fortunately for me all three of their histories are covered in this one story originally nobleman’s account was actually bought from a roblox x admin a long time ago with 2011 2012 and 2013 capes which explains why the past username was roblox He ended up buying a cobalt cave off a guy named ceo who had won the tournament a few times and either attended minecon or bought codes to get his 2015 and 2016 capes resulting in the world’s first six cape account it’s rumored that mark the current holder for most capes added Them to his account because he was jealous of noblemen that’s not quite it for noblemen’s story though all the way back in 2016 nobleman actually had a seventh cape a realms map maker cape now nobleman didn’t have much skill in building maps himself but one thing he did have was money and Quite a lot of it at that so when he wanted the realms cape he decided to pay a map maker by the name of vek to create three realms worthy maps and to credit nobuman and another guy pat for building it his plan did end up working for a while When winter’s hearth desert hook and jungle retreat were all accepted into realms but soon after mark found out about their plan and promptly took away the capes from all three of them the accounts weren’t locked but nobleman wasn’t done yet and possibly to make up the money he lost by paying for this Removed mapmaker cape he ended up scamming around 5 dollars with fake cobalt cape codes and quickly got his rare account disabled by mojang following noblemen is a conaton and it has a very very long list of owners bear in mind this most likely isn’t 100 accurate but it’s the most cohesive History that i could come up with the original owner of the account who was a staff member on the cobot forum and went to minecon 2012 sold it to our friend pat that we mentioned in the nobleman story it was then sold to a guy named alex who Liked to share the account with his friends which is probably one of the reasons it’s been locked so many times the next few months of the accounts history are a bit of a haze for me and i don’t really know a lot about them it seems to have gone through two maybe Three owners and got the 2013 2015 and 2016 capes added somewhere in there turning it into the penta cape it is today eventually the account made its way to an unknown buyer who got it by trading an og2 character and 400 where it was locked on him at some point Before january of this year and sat for months apparently though he managed to get it unlocked in late april and sold it for two thousand dollars on june 7th and then it was sold again for the same price just four days later by august the account had been locked Likely because of too many people logging in and getting it disabled for suspicious activity just eleven days later though the account was for sale for four thousand dollars now with the original info to the account which fraud bought off the original owner he sold it to a guy named casey who then Tried to sell it again the same day as a locked account it ended up selling later that month but since then nobody really knows what’s happened to it did he get unlocked did he get sold again honestly that’s a part of the story that we probably won’t know about for a while Tsar nicholas is up next and is one of just two of these accounts that seems to have been stolen from the original owner and stayed around long enough to tell the tale it originally came into the community when it was pulled by two big cape traders by the names of rin And nun back when there were only three capes on the account way back in 2017 they sold it to a guy named combat log and he was the one that added the 2016 cape code the time span between him getting the account in 2017 And it resurfacing in 2020 is a bit of a mystery at least to me but it was owned by bird starting in march of this year and he applied the final 2015 code that made it into a penta cape account originally the username egg was supposed To be sniped on the account to turn it into one of the rare od three-letter penta capes but when the name was outsniped by a guy named xh7 the account wasn’t really used much after apparently it got locked on july 27th and despite the community’s best efforts As of october 17th it was still locked with no help from mojang and now for the star of the show the god tier og the three letter name the infamous hexa cape account fox the history on this account probably deserves its own video honestly but since it’s gotten quite convoluted Over the years we should hopefully be able to fit it in here the story starts all the way back in early 2016 when the account was just a double cape a member of the community known as kavan brute force cracked the account with egg crack which nowadays isn’t really useful for Much more than stealing anaphase from lists of leaked emails and passwords apparently the password to the account was either jasper or flower depending who you ask unlike with many of these accounts the original owner never actually came into the picture rumor has it that ian jones which is the Guy that registered the account might not even be alive anymore anyways kevin ended up exit scamming for the account new and went on a bit of a mad rampage trying to steal as much money from players as he could using fake cobalt codes on hypixel to trick unsuspecting kids into getting scammed He did give out a legitimate code once the already used cobalt code for fox it was given to the owner of the account matthew and when he asked mojang support to apply it they actually did for about a week before they realized it was already used and took the cape away Around that time minecon 2016 was about to happen so kevon was able to easily purchase or scam a 2016 code off a player who went or maybe he went himself who knows fox made its way to a legitimate owner shortly afterwards and was traded around a few times between some more legitimate Players which is how the 2013 and 2015 capes came to the account eventually though it came to a very big name in the community but not for the right reasons xavier although his accolades in the minecraft community are generally recognized as positive owning one character usernames for example his infamy outside of minecraft Was gained through the act of sim-swapping back in august of 2018 he was arrested for identity theft grand theft and computer intrusion taking a stash of rare minecraft accounts along with him at some point though fox came back to the community when it was sold by an anonymous merchant along with the account Nova the history after that is a bit fuzzy but from what i can tell it was sold back in april for around ten thousand dollars to the owner of zonex though i’ve also heard that that was a myth and that it sold to a normal guy for just five Thousand dollars which is still a pretty astronomical amount mind you and it got locked on july 31st of this year bringing an end to the oscar-worthy story of fox and that brings us to our final account mark besides getting jealous of noblemen taking three map maker capes away from Players and pushing for capes to become a normal cosmetic instead of a rare reward mark is a former moging support worker and realms manager with the potential shutdown of realms in a few months who knows what’ll go on to do mark’s account doesn’t really have too much history behind it except for one Thing a duplicate mark account that was around for just a few days before it mysteriously disappeared from the game it turns out that this was actually the result of an exploit based on the scrolls api being confused with minecraft a few players used it to troll and make Fake minecraft accounts with the names dog cat mark dinnerbone and more almost all of these are gone with no record left but just a few weeks back the uu id to the fake mark account resurfaced and was posted in my discord server and checking it on the mojang api Suggests the account still exists completely disabled in a minecraft account limbo and that is the history of minecraft’s known penta cape accounts but they aren’t the only ones that exist surely there have been some players that made it to all five minecons and there have definitely been youtubers like bashreverse Seth bling captainsparklez and so on though we can’t see them yet it’s only a matter of time before a new penta cape is found and when it is you can be sure that an entirely new chapter of minecraft history will be written hope you all enjoyed this is probably my Most researched video outside of the history of hypixel so sorry it took so long to come out but it’s done now i’ve got tons of videos on the pipeline right now and by the time you see this i should have about three videos finished and two more being actively worked on So stay tuned anyways that’s it so have a good one guys peace You Video Information

Minecraft capes are by far the most sought-after cosmetic in the entire game, but just how much do capes mean to the community? Well, the answer lies in the story of “pentacapes”, or account with 5+ capes. From accounts being stolen from streamers, being hacked and traded for thousands of dollars, and a roller-coaster of locks, unlocks, snipes, scams, and more, this is the history of Minecraft’s pentacape accounts.

CORRECTIONS: Both CzarNicho1as and Wam have come into the community within the last week. CzarNicho1as seems to have maybe been pulled through support, but by a different person than the ones mentioned in the video. I’m not quite sure how Wam got here, but it has since been pulled back by the original owner. Nobleman/Vek/Pat’s stories are slightly different. Pat and Nobleman were both involved with account selling which caused the capes to be removed (Nobleman having scammed out, as well). Vek has a different story behind his cape, and I’ll let him tell that whenever he feels ready.
