It's ethereum fork project. They also decided to distribute some their coins between interesting project based on Ethereum. Good done.
Only a total shit project would spam other project threads with their copy paste crap. Obviously this etheteum fork is a total scam with idiot followers.
Yes, many people are propagating this fake Ethereum fork news, i never hard any things from the official whether they are doing any fork. I think it is very bad to spread the negative news which doesn't belong to SONM company.
They are not only in SONM thread but are also spamming other threads something to do with the airdrop they are giving out to the existing tokens holder.
