This: validateaddress 1111111111111111111114oLvT2
Returns true
It's valid but can't be used?

This corresponds to a public key hash of    0000000000000000000000000000000000000000

This is likely a bug in an experimental client or pool.

It can't be used. If it could, bitcoin would be broken.
So who was so ingenious to send 2 btc to that address?
