The problem is the trust of a coder to not implement an unnoticed issue. ...
Tim
I would tend to agree with that. The issue is
1) Find somebody who everybody has enough confidence in.
2) Raise a bounty fund or whatever.
3) Put the code up and let people go through it open source.
So at this point it seems up to Tim or fartbags to make a wallet, either THC or BTC, that could be used to induce an outsider to spend a while updating things. Since a wallet fix would reinvigorate the coin and increase price probably, it seems wise to make the bounty in THC.
Also looking ahead, it has been mentioned possibly doing other things with the coin. Fartbags mentioned using another algo that might give other possibilities. One thing I support that was mentioned is broadening the focus generally to medicinal plants. Hemp, as a plant, is famous because George Washington, Th Jefferson etc grew it, yet it is restricted. Marijuana, which is similar, is becoming legal in more U.S. states and there are a lot of weedcoins that focus on commercializing marijuana specifically.
The idea of using this coin to promote hemp cultivation (research it) is good, but maybe a broader theme like medicinal or "useful" plants that can be cultivated (non commercially) by individuals is good. There could be some marketplace where people could buy and sell MountainRoseHerbs
https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/ type stuff. That would involve Tim making a market website of some sort, which might make a little money, and would allow us to get back to the nice idea of him paying for everything, which is better than me chipping in.
