Are there any recent statements from the dev on any platform?
I see that there was some Github activity when I wrote this! There hasn't been any activity since though, so I wonder why the price is up today.
It's because TraderDaddy is going to open up soon. People are rushing to buy RBY which is needed to run TraderDaddy. You can join the slack to keep up with the news better than here

also, when is it opening traderdaddy again?
Oops here is the correct link
https://slack.rubycoin.org/. There is no set time/date when it will open, but it will be soon, any day now. The dev and at least one other user are testing it out now
