I'm looking for taking over an existing altcoin. The coin should be listed on some good exchange. I have a bit of a scoop in terms of how it can be an attractive investment once again. Should things work out I've got reason to believe I can get some corporate backing in the mix in terms of partnerships out of the gate. Send me a message and I'll be happy to provide more detail.
Shoot me a message if you've got experience in this area and are interested.
In order to "take over" of an alt coin, you can either hardfork it or just ignore whatever activity there is, and develop things independently (this will probably result in hardfork either way). Basically if you can't handle coding it will not be you taking over but whoever you ask/hire to do so. Imagine someone will come here and say "Sure, dude, let's do it" then put some nasty malicious keygen into new wallet, change source to get premine or something even more sinister? You won't have ANY tools to detect this sort of shenanigans.
So unless you feel comfortable with coding I suggest you don't do takeovers. I understand it may be frustrating to hold huge bag of worthless shitcoins, but in my experience takeovers usually only waste efforts, bearing zero to no return for bag holders.
Out of curiosity - what coin you want to revive?
