Can the community take over the project if the dev is not doing anything? If yes, who'd like to join?
This question comes up about every two weeks.
The community could take over but without the dev it would be a fork. Not to throw the Dev under the bus, but the main complaint is he is not very active on the forum nor very responsive to questions or bugs.
So there are 3 main options:
Fork it - Dev receives a reward (his premine) for no additional work, would be almost like starting a new coin without the Dev, would moderately protect those who had coins, but the majority of the benefit would be ot the Dev.
Start a new coin - DaS is based on DASH, so it would be little more work to clone DASH again and start a new coin. Dev would not receive any reward.
Find a new coin - If you feel that DaS isn't getting the support it needs, abandon it and find another coin. If you have developer skills, it would be far easier to contribute to an existing coin than to fork this one or start a new one.
So really, unless you've got a HUGE holding of DaS, you're better off to chalk it up as a loss and go a different route. If you do have a HUGE holding of DaS, a fork might benefit you but probably not enough compared to the work load it would be.
Yeah...its a real shame with these types of coins/people that abandon their coins and don't look after them properly. There are so many coins of this type in the crypto world, which at the end of the day make the crypto market untidy with more than 30% being abandoned, which have been created to generate money for the 'devs' (if you could call them like that in this case). I guess another coin dead.
