As a reward for recognition, the team promised to award 15% of the ZRO tokens claimed by the airdrop participant. Those who do not do this will be recognized by the security system and will be excluded from the distribution. According to LayerZero CEO Bryan Pellegrino, at least 100,000 users have already admitted to using Sybil attack tactics.
After the voluntary reporting deadline expired on May 17, LayerZero launched a bounty program in which users were given the opportunity to report potential “sybils” for a reward by posting data on GitHub. In just two hours, the developers received over 3,000 reports and tens of thousands of messages about possible “sybils”.
“We are suspending reports of Sybil addresses for a day or two due to the influx of reports,” Pellegrino said.
The LayerZero team is preparing to change the infrastructure for receiving data from users and promises to soon review all incoming reports of potential “sybils”.
Previously, cybersecurity experts at the largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance developed an algorithm that allows them to identify addresses used in fraud with so-called spam transactions. Identified accounts are included in the Web3 HashDit partner company database.
