  • A fourteen-post thread on the accounts that worked on Tokamak Network's bridge front end, marketplace and subgraph between November 2023 and February 2025, read as a single cell from the primary account's following list, commit-email forensics, renamed and deleted handles, and account-creation dates clustered within days of each other. Every value here is stated in the thread; post thirteen is the researcher's own address map for the cell. Post seven: commits under two names, May Lee and JinHai, from one address.

  • Found on 13 September 2026 by probing every account handle this site already holds for this operator against GitLab, and read from the profile cited. An active GitLab account exists under may79, a login the index already carries for this persona on another platform. The profile gives a member-since date of 16 August 2021. It displays the name May Lee, the same name the reporting already gives. The handle is what links this account to the rest; nothing here establishes that one person holds both, and a display name on a profile is a name the account presents, not an identification. The profile's bio, location and links render only in a browser and were not read, so nothing is claimed about them either way.

  • Found on 17 September 2026 by asking Hugging Face whether an account exists under may79, one of the logins the registry already holds for this operator, and read from the profile cited. The account states a display name of nena. The display name is kept here rather than as an alias, because it restates the handle, describes the work, or repeats what this operator is already called. The handle is what links this account to the rest; nothing here establishes that one person holds both, and a display name on a profile is a name the account presents, not an identification.
