Hi Hive account@punqtured, I attested my steemit username using public option and it returned this link successfully:

https://explorer.byteball.org/#+IEL5CSjV0nADjVktN4GFz4inxDqcyNUQtw+Eh8MYyQ=

I had zero balance before attesting my username, followed the referral link of a friend Hive account@princewahaj, downloaded the wallet and after attesting the username, my balance was still zero. I asked my friend to send 50,000 bytes to me and then i tried to attest again, but it says "You are already attested". I have not received any rewards for attesting my name. I am entitled to $80 airdrop, please process them to me.
