They did so to fork and recover funds for those scammed
i.e. they want to recoup their loss that they had on the scamcoin by passing their bags off to another series of "investors"
Also after trying to clean up the scam code and build his tech on top of it, gave up cause it was so shit. So now a new coded coin has been launched that is now mirroring the old shitcoin which will be taken away. Keep to the truth guys.
So why shill the current ticker symbol coin XBY now instead of waiting until the new coded coin is ready to go? This is why it smells like bullshit, the anatomy of a scam is that there's always some goalpost moving, some moving target of a goal that constantly changes to 2 months out and that investors should just wait, buy more coins and not question the current underlying technology.
Also, there's still no whitepaper.
