It’s sadly official, but Yenten is dead and over..
For those who looking for CPU mining coins to mine, i can suggest Cryply, Koto, Elicoin.
It’s time to stop wasting time and to look forward.
I think Cryply and Koto are robust against CVE-2018-17144, as their base source codes look older, like Yenten-1.3.1.

Elicoin has not been got maintenance, so still holding a risk of CVE-2018-17144 attack:
https://github.com/elicoin/elicoin/blob/master/src/validation.cpp#L2885

Yenten was too famous to avoid getting attacks.
Maybe its historic role is coming to an end though, I was enough enjoyed on Conan's joke!
I have no intention and no ability to force extending its life, but still there are several interesting issues.
My biggest interest about Yenten is why v2.0.1 wallet can't sync block-chain from start, without prepared block data.
Ironically v1.3.1 wallet still holds the meaning to exist, at this point...
