Summary

Superteam is a community-run talent network and grant accelerator operating as the contributor layer of the Solana ecosystem, founded by Tanmay Bhat and Akshay BD and active across 23+ global chapters. The organization has been flagged for investigation by ZachXBT, though no published, verifiable ZachXBT post or report specifically naming Superteam as a fraudulent entity was located during this investigation; the exact nature and basis of that flag remains unconfirmed. Separately, Superteam Earn — the organization's public freelance bounty and job platform — operates within a segment of the Solana ecosystem that regulators, Google Cloud threat intelligence, and on-chain investigators have identified as systematically targeted by DPRK-linked IT workers using false identities.
