Thanks for this video. This is a strange malware, funny messages by the malcoder, it seems almost a game. Here is an analysis by @JM Security :

Strange sample, not obfuscated and it seems the password for encryption is in clear!
Anyway it is able to encrypt also files of the OS and delete them if the victim doesn't pay the ransom after a certain period of time (it uses a timer).

The only thing I find truly scary is what ransomware does to your HD,
the rest is just window dressing. I want a JigSaw Puppet so bad lol
