So who's the new dev? Has he been selected yet?
He is been selected and the coin is almost finished, more news will come. He is someone that worked on several coins.
Is there a reason you're not letting on to who it is?
Do you think that i know his real name? He has been working on the THC coin, that is all what i know. In fact, honestly, who it is, is not important, get the coin fixed and working that is important.
why is it important to get this coin working again?

1. People spend a lot of BTC on it for mining
2. People were scammed for a lot of BTCs because of super block
Important :
1. There is a big community around this coin so it is not just a coin that you can say let it die.
2. People are willing to work for this coin (and try to get it back where it should be).
so , its important to get this coin working so that bagholders can sell to idiots that then become the new bagholders?
what you're saying is that , a community got scammed and wants to scam another community. cause we all know no dev is gonna continue working on this coin , would be better to just make a new one.
I bought more as I think all the CRAVE clones by scam devs are boring, and unnecessarily risky. (Why not just get CRAVE?) Instead of dumping my bags, I increased them 5x. This will be a swap so it is a new coin. If you don't like it, don't buy it. The price is super low and smart people might see an opportunity here, or maybe I am just an idiot bagholder, but I will take my chances. Besides, I think the idea is fun, staking lucky blocks, and I don't want to run a masternode for some doomed coins that are a dime a dozen now.
