(Note: I emailed dang about this first, and he suggested an Ask HN. For openness and simplicity, I'll simply paste that email here with an additional note below.)

Hi. I hope this email still reaches Dan.

I'm trying to reach a user that went by the handle "makaronin" in 2015-2018 on Hacker News (and elsewhere around the web).

This user bought several tiles in Etheria (the first NFT project on Ethereum) which are now worth several million USD, but I can't reach them bc I don't have their email address and they've deleted their Reddit account.

You can see that they purchased the tiles here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/3qecog/comment/cw...

I don't need their email directly. A simple email from you, to them, saying "Hi. Did you buy Etheria tiles in 2015? You might want to look into that, if so. If not, please disregard" would suffice. etheria.world is the official site.

I'd love for this person to find out they're worth millions (if they weren't already). Can you assist?

-------------

ADDITIONAL NOTE: There are several other "cold" accounts that have Etheria tiles, including a tile containing the first tradable UGC artwork ever put on any blockchain (the cabin on tile 16,5). Additionally these early buyers tended to buy "rare" tiles (islands, ice, mountains, etc) that are possibly worth 10x "normal/floor" tiles.

To see the cold tiles and accounts, go to https://etheria.world/exchange.html and click "recency".

My email is cyrus at the official domain above.
