> If you have over 15 followers on GitHub, you can claim around $400-800 of Handshake coins (HNS) with no strings attached.

How will one go about this? I'm interested, if only for the purpose of claiming a few domains that I have a personal interest in.

Go to https://handshake.org/ and click the top link under Developer Airdrop.

You can use https://github.com/handshake-org/hs-airdrop to claim your coins on the testnet. You’ll have to repeat the process once the mainnet launches.

If you want an easier way to claim and use your coins I can also add you to our private beta for Namebase.io. Just ping me at tieshun at namebase.io.

There was a post on HN about a year ago announcing Handshake, with an option to signup for the airdrop with your github account, irc account, etc.

Do you know if these users will still receive the tokens they signed up for? Should these tokens show up on testnet?

You should have received a seed phrase as part of that airdrop. You'll be able to use that seed phrase to claim your tokens on the testnet and mainnet. Ping me at tieshun at namebase.io if you want to try things out on testnet — I'm happy to walk you through it.
