Thought I'd regurgitate some of the history of this coin so people can really grasp what is actually happening with CGA:
DISCLAIMER:
I do not own/control cganomaly.com (I never did apon further investigation I actually DID have the domain registered under my name until February 6th 2015). The domain was purchased by another user during the first week of launching the coin (2 years ago). That user gave me access to the web server to maintain the site. Since then a LOT has changed within the community. I lost access to the server that was hosting the original cganomaly.com and I never renewed/purchased the domain (I didn't have the funds for web hosting and such at the time). During this time I was also going through a lot of personal life events (which is why I dropped off the face of the internet). Then the "Diemcoin team" contacted me saying they wanted to "revive" CGA. Since I was still in the middle of sorting out my personal life, I get them "the reigns" in hope that they would update the code and such. They "updated" the code enough to stop the MASSIVE amount of forks that was happening constantly within the original code. The coin network has been running without any known major forks. Poloniex has been sending me 'hints' of delisting because the source code is neglected which is why I have been working on updating the code base...
So back to the domain 'cganomaly.com': After the original site went down someone (my guess is from Taiwan, based on the default language of the site) 'parked' cganomaly.com, and then shortly after had (from what I remember) a nail/hair/salon/spa site up on the domain. Then magically the site is changed to the "Unprecedented Tech" site with a countdown, the link was spammed a few times in the Poloniex Trollbox and now we have a shit show... The domain owner is selling (ransoming) the domain for +$700, but I don't negotiate/cooperate with terrorists. This is one (of many) reason(s) why the coins name should be changed (as stated in my previous post...).
THE ACTUAL (BARELY FUNCTIONAL) WEBSITE IS HERE: http://s4w3d0ff.github.io/cganomalywebsite
THE MOST RECENT BRANCH OF CGA(v2) IS HERE: https://github.com/s4w3d0ff/CryptographicAnomaly2
REAL CGA NEWS:
I am STILL updating the code!
I am also setting up the new website, a dedicated seed node, and community forum.
FAQ:
"How long until I'm filthy rich because of your hard work?"
How ever long it takes me...
It is just one, unprofessional, hobbyist (who periodically makes 'high school level' spelling, grammatical, and mathematical errors with no shame) working on the code in his free time.
Due to various reasons, Cryptographic Anomaly will be going through some changes.
These require first priority. They have first priority over ANY OTHER concern because, if these things don't happen the coin won't live much longer:
These things are NOT a priority and will be addressed by the main developers ONLY after the list above has been 90% completed (I say this because of the lack of bodies, if we had a solid crew committed to the software, these things could be done simultaneously/autonomously):
What this means is, until the updated coin software is ready to be released and a basic web presence has been established for the possible re-branding, no one should be overly concerned about getting a pool/block explorer running, or getting added to new exchanges/services (it is pointless if the code is going to change).
I will attempt to be on IRC in #CGAnomaly (freenode) as frequently/consistently as possible to answer any questions, address concerns, and point volunteers into the right direction. (Just don't bug me too much if you want anything to get done
)
PLEASE DO NOT ASK/TELL ME ANYTHING "INVESTMENT" RELATED INVOLVING CGA, I DO NOT CARE. I WILL NOT HELP YOU BUY A GOLD UNICORN.

These require first priority. They have first priority over ANY OTHER concern because, if these things don't happen the coin won't live much longer:
- CODE UPDATE - The coins code needs to be updated to some version of Bitcoin core. Things need to be addressed, like what base code should be used, what features (if any) are to be added, and who should have access to the development repo (We need more bodies maintaining the code then just myself even if it is just someone periodically popping into github and adding a checkpoint or useful link).
- Branding - Should a re-branding happen (the name has been confusing for non-native English speakers)? If re-branded, then new social media pages need to be created, and possible new logo (I have been working on updating the logo, it wont change to much).
- Web presence - http://s4w3d0ff.github.io/cganomalywebsite source: https://github.com/s4w3d0ff/cganomalywebsite but it would still be nice to have our own site and forum. We also need social media managers to maintain the social sites that allow moderators.
- Whitepaper - We have this: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cQJE8P0mR6n-9_F5BuI8sDvjNn-SD3VTPHK9ulxpgUQ/edit?usp=sharing It is a good starting point, but like I said before it is very outdated.
These things are NOT a priority and will be addressed by the main developers ONLY after the list above has been 90% completed (I say this because of the lack of bodies, if we had a solid crew committed to the software, these things could be done simultaneously/autonomously):
- Network Services - Pools, block explorers, etc.
- Other Services - Exchanges, markets, games, applications, etc.
- Media - Blogs, Videos, wallpapers, banners, etc.
- Translations - For the web page, whitepaper and forum as well as community support (helping out with general translations between members)
What this means is, until the updated coin software is ready to be released and a basic web presence has been established for the possible re-branding, no one should be overly concerned about getting a pool/block explorer running, or getting added to new exchanges/services (it is pointless if the code is going to change).
