How does a new team take over an abandoned project though?
Does the old development team come in the dreams of the potential new team and give them all the necessary tools and access to the project etc?

Hi,

That's a good question. In this instance it was completely abandoned, members of the old community pointed us at
some of the source code on github.
So it starts by forking the source on github.

Rebranding of the wallet.
Figure out the build process for linux and windows ( often documentation is out of date or simply does not work ).
We got some help from Mystere.
For PWRcoin we needed 2 weeks to design a new windows built system using MXE, so that we could finally
build a 64 bit version of the wallet.
When we were able to compile our own wallets, we started on building the block explorer and first seed vps.
We then worked on getting testnet online. ( another 2 vps's ).

At this point we decided which bugs to fix and which new features to add to the codebase.
We spend about a month testing it on testnet and released it all mid april.

Meanwhile we found amazing ppl to help re-connect with the awesome community on discord.
A talented developer provided a tipbot, and slowly things started to move again...
DisasterFaster got us on a new cryptohub.online exchange , rebuilt the website from scratch etc...

So TLDR, in a nutshell,
It takes money, time and resources to pull something like that of.
it grows slowly organically over time...
