I have posted a paragraph in the OP that needs to be said.

That's very graciousness of you.  While I wouldn't say your admission now makes you a giant among men Grin, it's a step forward in the right direction.

The old Wyvern code still lives on as a PoS deadcoin.  Perhaps it could be repurposed to a better use?

Unfortunately NIST5 is ASIC territory now, so I would require a hard fork to a different algo. I've been looking at the x16r algo used by ravencoin. Seems interesting, although I doubt I'd try to resurrect the old wyvern chain. Protinam has done a good thing with wyvern and I won't interfere with it. I already handed over the domain/remaining dev fund and OpenSea is also using the wyvern protocol now so it's gaining some traction. I'm still interested in development, but I have some new personal rules and a few things to work through before I would consider jumping back in. Everything I do from now on will be self funded 100%.
