How many and which usernames have been set aside by the dev team, and how were the decisions made to offer them to select people?



Looks like they grabbed all one and two character names, plus a little over 600 others: http://pastebin.com/gnLGmvXu


It would have been nice if they're reserved names for namecoin devs, it looks like someone grabbed u/khal who is not khal.


Oh how do you know it's not the real khal?


The bitcoin address in the profile is also used by u/speedcore and he always uses vanity addresses.


/u/britneyspears is my favorite.


I sent an e-mail to that address as instructed and haven't received a response yet.


Apologies for the delay! We are trying really hard to handle the barrage of incoming requests and will get back to you shortly!
