walletbeat

It appears my GitHub account has been flagged and purged from GitHub.
All PRs and issues I have filed (both Walletbeat and non-Walletbeat) are now 404s.
My profile is a 404.
The walletbeat repository is owned by an org, so it is thankfully not purged.
Investigating. If anyone has a contact at GH, DM me.

It is likely that Walletbeat development will need to move to https://radicle.xyz going forward to avoid further problems.

Contributor @ /walletbeat.

Censorship resistance requires privacy.

@polymutex I saved your screenshots on local hd. I hope @github fully restores your account access with a full post-mortem of how this happened.

Or, if it is explicit censoring, and they don't provide an explicit rationale, I'm going to give them serious shit.

Keep us informed!

@nate_zec @github Thanks. It's probably some intern who wrote an SQL query to find accounts that have only ever logged in from non-residential IPs &amp;&amp; don't have phone number attached, or something silly like that. If it was explicitly against my account, they'd also have banned the Walletbeat org.

Update: GitHub account reinstatement appeal ticket filed: #3818789

According to GitHub's support page:

> Due to high support volume, it may take up to seven business days to hear back from our Support Engineers.

In the meantime, I will continue to try to escalate, research alternatives, and continue WB development.

Update: My account is back on GitHub!

No clear explanation for the initial flag given by the support staff, but I'll take it.

Thanks to all who stepped up to help! 🫡

Walletbeat development shall resume as planned, but will additionally maintain a repository mirror on Radicle as safeguard against future problems.

Support didn't provide any explanation. My guess is that whatever heuristics they use, they don't want to reveal, otherwise bad actors would then know how to tiptoe around them.
My guess is it's something like this:

Talks about crypto and coffee. Building onchain algo trading - check out my channels /algo-trading and /python
