Like Qanon, most of what we know of them comes from their detractors. According to these detractors, the Valentinians CLAIMED to be privy to some higher level knowledge than ordinary Christians. But if you asked them "where'd you get all of this info?" they'd just smirk and say nothing. Tertullian hated them:
"The Valentinians, who are no doubt a very large body of heretics— comprising as they do so many apostates from the truth, who have a propensity for fables, and no discipline to deter them (therefrom) care for nothing so much as to obscure what they preach, if indeed they (can be said to) preach who obscure their doctrine. The officiousness with which they guard their doctrine is an officiousness which betrays their guilt. Their disgrace is proclaimed in the very earnestness with which they maintain their religious system."
