This is a new 100% premined cryptocurrency from the makers of ripple. Stripe has invested in this technology; so it already has some fiat backing behind the haul.

Whomever this is, and they are likely associated with the project as have an associated email, is gathering funds from the projects premined wallets for distribution. Like ripple, they are handing these out to people interested in the technology. I received part of the initial distribution of ripple by posting on the bitcoin forums. I encourage you to make an account, nothing to lose here; the initial distribution of the currency helps with its decentralization.

Paypal used to pay people to make new accounts too!

The person here is not affiliated with the project. (That @stellar.org is their federated payment address, which is assigned to anyone who signs up for an account.)

We've talked with the user, and it sounds like this is not in fact a code bug. We've invited him to post more details in this thread, so hopefully you'll hear more soon.
