hypolite,

I've now received 3 separate emails asking me to sell my potential share of the upcoming Fluence Network cryptocurrency airdrop. This project aims at rewarding the "~110,000 developers who contributed into open source web3 repositories during last year" according to the project webpage. In order to do this "Public keys of selected Github accounts were added into a smart contract on Ethereum" which they stored in a single file hosted on AWS that their own "install" script fetches in order to generate proof of GitHub account ownership.

So you can check any GitHub account eligibility on the Fluence website, of course, but you can also obtain the conveniently complete list of 108,615 eligible GitHub accounts to spam with your stupid cryptocurrency acquisition request. I've pulled down my email address from my public profile in the hope that it will stem the tide, but that's yet another possibly well-meaning Web3 project that ends up abused within seconds of its inception because of poorly thought-out process.

Also I never contributed to any web3 repository, so I'm vaguely curious how they compiled this list of accounts but not that much either.
