Just to be clear: Anoncoin is not a dead coin. We have a new lead developer, GroundRod, who has brought the code up to bitcoin 0.10 standards, and who has added many new features, such as a innovative PID difficulty retargeting algorithm (see https://wiki.anoncoin.net/Development_schedule). You can download/build the the develop branch on github to see for yourself. We are currently testing the PID algorithm on internal testnets.

But to get back to your original comment: Meeh has not given up on Anoncoin, but even if he did, the project would live on without him.


Sorry, maybe I was a bit harsh and you are right.

Development branch hasn't been altered since February 2015.
We don't see GroundRod coding^^ or getting the code up to 0.1 standards

not blame - just saying
You are right in not trusting us. All I can say is that if you look at your Anoncoin peers, you will see about three that are running 0.9.6.1. We are holding back on pushing the post 0.9.4 code to github as some of our developments, including real block hashes and PID retargetting, could be easily copied.

Of course, it would be easy to make some clients with fake version numbers if we wanted to pump and dump.
