Do I have your attention? Yes? Great!
For all BTC holders . On the night of Sunday on Monday Stellar will make a snapshot of the blockchain, for there new distribution round of Lumens (STR / XLM). Everyone that is currently holding BTC will receive (after the first block at UTC) +/- 1000 XLM per BTC!
This will result in an amount of +/- 40 $ that you will get for free for every BTC that you are holding currently! (if the current price of XLM will stay at 0.04$, which I think will drop due the inflation)
You will get these XLM (Lumen) automatically if you are on the following exchanges :
Kraken
BTC38
Poloniex
Deribit
Yuanbao
NaoBTC
Bit-Z
Some manual registration is required if you have BTC in your own supported wallet(s)
Bitcoind
Bitcoin-qt
Electrum
Mycelium
Trezor
Nano
This can be done by the 27th, by following the steps that are described in the link below

TIPS !
- Make sure you have your BTC stored in your own (supported) wallets or on one of the exchanges that support the automatic handout of XLM.
- If you are currently holding XLM please think about the effects this could have due to this new influx of Lumens on the market.
- Prices also might drop due the people that directly sell off their free received XLM !
So keep a close eye!
