Is namecoin still maintained? I always thought that only litecoin and dogecoin are the only ones that are left of the old altcoins and that the development team of the others have moved on to make new coins.
Plenty are maintained it's just that unless you hire a spam team to bomb this board they go ignored.
Take for example SunnyKing's PrimeCoin (XPM) or PeerCoin (PPC)
Both are alive & well last i heard and i always see Sunny post a weekly update here in this very section.
But i have said for years his locking of the topic after he posts his updates hampers his efforts.
He should leave it unlocked..
It's not about who is keeping the coins updated and running.
It's who is launching a spam / hype / advertising campaign across Crypto.
Since idiots made thousands of coins it's harder to get noticed.
Then.. we have the only people here pretty much who showed up to make a buck / BTC.
And 9 times out of 10 that means they are looking for the cheapest possible NEW coin that is out.
They have no interest in buying into a coin already established.
So..
A dev can sit here and update the coin until he is blue in the face.. it won't matter.
The majority in Crypto control the momentum and they are the people steering the ship.
The minority are powerless and sit on the side lines..
The majority came to make money off anything hyped up.
Not legit..
