Is there anything new about this coin, I checked the website and it looks like they need some updates in it, it would be very nice if they do this, the site is an important part to convince investors to join in it.
You are right. To change official site rights and access have only the founder of the project and seems he is too busy right now. Also only he have rights over the official domains. The official domain is registered till 2022. That why I registered riecoin-community.com . For now we have board (forums), where we can expand themes about the Riecoin and coordinate better. If somebody serious want to start working on a modern look stylish site for the coin I can give him
www.riecoin-community.com and a hosting space for it. Also can dedicate subdomain from riecoin-community.com for different project about the coin (which remind me PttnMe if you want something like pttnme.riecoin-community.com where to upload large bins send me pm on the board)
There are new about the coin, have new wallet (16.3), new miner , new community members , the things happens just the process is slow and will need more time.
Ziiip why do you think segwit is not good for the coin ? It will not hurt to have it like functionality even to not use it or activating it right now ?
The idea with never ending riecoin is cool and I am 100% agree. The unique of riecoin is its algorithm and I think we must not put limits on this. My c++ skills are not good too but I will help you in that.
The future of the coin right now depend on us. We can have voting on the community board about the direction to where the coin should be developed.
