This branch is 76 commits ahead, 940 commits behind monero-project:master.

It's a branch of Monero, which has much more github activity, so why not just use Monero?

Because all the paupers who want to get rich off a shitcoin without any real work wont be able to do that with a proper coin like Monero and then theyll also tell you that its all about mobile mining and free airdropped currency - at least if they tell enough people theyll start to believe it and then the hype fuels further hype.
