Dear Roy, It is unfortunate you are dealing with this. I am so sorry and hope for the best. The Handshake founders had an airdrop pre allocated for you in the Handshake Blockchain [1] so there is about $64,000.00 in there that you can claim under marples.name as of writing.

What does this mean? Did the founders decide Roy's work was worthy of the coin donation?

  I do not entirely understand how it works, but I think they allocated coins to users on GitHub based on certain metrics, and also reserved names in their system for the top 100k sites on Alexa. It seems to be mostly automated/algorithmic. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22504592 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22504592

Maybe he has more urging matter than claiming this ? Thought about the paperwork and taxes handling ? Could you do that for him ?

  He provides a paypal link for donations in the post, and for most people $64k is a non-insignificant amount (i.e. would be worth the effort of claiming).

    Well, it feels like a passive publicity stunt, so far, to me.

i cannot believe you made a marketing stunt out of his situation for your shitcoin

  That's not his shitcoin; rasengan is Andrew Lee,[1] and seems to have no involvement outside of an open source grant from his company a long time ago. Besides, the airdrop for Handshake was ages ago, and it was given to everyone in the Alexa top 100k, I think. It's a stupid cryptocurrency, sure, but insinuating bad motives is probably incorrect here. He just seems to like the crypto. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Lee_(entrepreneur) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Lee_(entrepreneur)
