The current README explains Split-Key and CUDA well, but never mentions Profanity, CVE-2022-40769, or the 2022 Wintermute incident, so people searching for a safe EVM vanity tool cannot connect this repo to that story. This docs-only change adds a short factual homepage section in English and Chinese (after the tagline, above “Why Vaddro”), records that the coffee address is a 13-leading-zero-nibble proof of work, and adds a one-line historical pointer in the existing security-model policy. Performance tables, CUDA engine details, scripts, and version numbers are unchanged.
