Understandably the post got swarmed by legit and not so legit accounts and several of my follows did boost.
@Tezar even coded a tool to help them find the relevant accounts:
but to this day, only a small selection of users did receive zaps as detected by that tool:
And here are some that did not get zapped:
Of course, nostr is not consistent, so late entrants could always fake the time and claim the bounty. Just be careful to not boost before the OP 🤯.
The tool appears to generate naked hex pub keys, not npubs but I don't see much motivation from @brightfuture to resolve these issues.
Is @brightfuture scamming us? I don't think so but apparently Sybils got zapped while high profile accounts did not get zapped. I guess fulfilling the promise just went over their head, where they had the honest intention to pay up.
We need better tools and a more robust concept of WoT cause Sybil attacks will only get worse.
