We’re writing to you, the MANTRA community, with an update on our recent sybil investigations ahead of the upcoming $OM GenDrop. 

Since investigations began on 13 February, we have detected multiple fraudulent accounts that were attempting to unfairly gain $OM tokens. 

These are not genuine members of our community, nor do they have an authentic and honest interest in the durability, sustainability and long term vitality of our ecosystem. Put short, at MANTRA, our focus and commitment is to those members of our community who do. It’s also a commitment to transparency. Below you will find an overview of how we conducted our sybil investigations for your reference. 

We combined multiple approaches, leveraging both external expertise and internal analysis. Multiple firms who specialize in network behaviour analysis and data science, were engaged and detected anomalous patterns as a result. In parallel, the Sybil Slaying Season, and reporting that resulted from the community, also surfaced additional sybil clusters.

The combination of the internal and external, allowed us to triangulate, detect, and categorize sybil wallets with high confidence, ensuring integrity of our investigation. 

Those seeking to see their allocation ahead of the upcoming $OM GenDrop, can enter their wallet into the wenchecker here. When available, 10% of $OM allocations can be claimed here. If you believe you have been incorrectly flagged as a sybil, we invite you to share your query in Discord. 

As previously mentioned, our investigations have been conducted to ensure those who’ve contributed to MANTRA’s growth to date and supported our work in bringing the world’s financial ecosystem onchain - are adequately and honestly rewarded. 

Let’s keep building. 

MANTRA.
