Stellar is distributing 16 billion Lumens (Stellar's native currency, also known as XLM) to Bitcoin holders. On June 26, 2017, Stellar took a snapshot of the Bitcoin blockchain at block #472889, and gave every address a certain amount of XLM. You would get 974.957961 XLM for every 1 BTC that you hold, worth roughly 0.011BTC. Those Bitcoin holders can claim their Stellar at this page if they wish. 1 Stellar is currently worth around 1000 satoshi. You can claim them yourself, get a stellar wallet and sell them/keep them if you'd like, or go through me. I will be claiming the Lumens for you, and selling them. (similar to what LoyceV is doing with Byteball)
- 80% of the Lumens will be sold, and Bitcoin given to you.
- 10% of the Lumens will be sold, and Bitcoin kept by me.
- 10% of the Lumens won't be sold and kept by me.Basically, you will get 80% of whatever the whole amount of Lumens would be sold for. If your entire Lumen claim would be sold for 0.01
BTC, you would get 0.008
BTC.
How do I join?To join, all you have to do is sign the following message from the address(es) that held Bitcoin at block 472889 with the following text, and PM me the signature as well as the address.

When will I get paid?You will get paid within a few days. I will be trying to send the BTC out in batches to save on tx fees (which will be covered by me). Maximum time you will have to wait would be 1 week.
Is there a minimum?Yes. The minimum I will do is 0.001
BTC worth of Stellar (limit is roughly at 0.1
BTC on your address), as transaction fees would end up costing a lot if I were to send them to you.
Why don't I just claim the Stellar myself and get the full amount?You can! This service is more for those that don't want to bother with the hassle of claiming them, downloading the wallet, figuring out how some things work, and selling them.
* The exact value of what you get varies, as it is based on the exchange rate of Lumens at the time that I sell.
