    I have sent DMCA counter notice to GitHub and they are waiting for TurtleCoin development team to respond to it. Hopefully everything will be resolved early next week.

    To sum this up, all the shit storm started when TurtleCoin accused us (PinkstarcoinV2 development team) of violating the license of simplewallet even though they do not own the trademark for name "simplewallet" and such had no legal right to relicense their code under the original name and subsequently were forced to rename their rewrite as "ZedWallet" to be eligible for protection under copyright and trademark laws.

    GitHub were forced to shutdown PinkstarcoinV2 repositories for the duration of investigating the validity of DMCA takedown notice, but that has nothing to do with us stealing their code or not. It's solely legal process between TurtleCoin project and GitHub.

    In the counter notice I explained that their original takedown notice was unjustified as the license was not removed, but only the copyright of the modifications made in the source code after the fork were attributed to PinkstarcoinV2 project as that is our legal right.
