Also we should also note that there is new PR person in charge of communication but he don't write on forum often and communication is pretty one-sided.
If you check
freebitco.in PR's profile, you will see that the account was created in 2019 and it was not a new account.
freebitco.in PR was active for a very long time (even when TheQuin was active) and it was used by freebitco for posting about their announcements and promotions. freebitco.in PR became inactive after people complaining about their service.
You're right, I didn't notice that account until after TheQuin disappeared.
I'd also like to turn attention to
this topic. There is a lot of things also explained (they had to pay some fines and they were banned to operate in certain countries).
