There isn't really a Crypti team anymore. The majority of efforts transitioned to Lisk and with the huge success of their IPO, I imagine anyone who loved Crypti went with them. Boris, as you know, is now with them. As I said before, Crypti cannot die. It's an open source crypto like any other. If you run nodes and keep the network running, it continues to exist.
I see a couple main problems with this direction.
1. Max and Oliver hold 80% or something crazy like that of the XCR in circulation.
2. There is no development team focused on continuing to develop and push the project, as well as no funds to pay anyone to do so.
However, I will say this. The success of the Lisk ICO shows that people believe in the core technology we built here at Crypti, it simply never got the buzz or backing and people knew we were almost out of money for development. There is a huge opportunity here for some enterprising developers.
If you know a developer who is good and can understand the source code of Lisk, you could pull back all updates they have made (as Lisk is required to be open source based on the Crypti license they used to take the Crypti Source Code). Any updates they put out to the core source will also be open source. These can all be pulled back into Crypti to keep pace with any developments they make if someone simply steps in and takes over to lead a new more organized Foundation and development effort.
On top of that, you could potentially build side chains Dapps that would work on Crypti, and could also be implemented into Lisk for additional profit.
The real sticking point is that 80% that Max and Oliver hold. I have no idea what their intentions are but it's highly possible they will hold it as an insurance policy that the Crypti network doesn't rise up to compete.
Hell, if you want to make a go at it, ask them to put all 80 million XCR in a faucet, or have people register to receive free XCR, or some kind of giveaway of XCR for joining a Lisk mailing list or something. If they view it as useless (which they should, they have ass tons of money at this point), then maybe you'll get lucky.
Sorry no one has been around. After everything that went down, I walked away for a little bit to catch my breath. For what it's worth, I am in no way affiliated with Lisk, although I do wish them the best. We spent a lot of time working with those guys and they mean well, are good people, and I know for 100% fact they will do their best to make it a success. Trust me that Lisk will not be some kind of fly by night operation. They will work their asses off to continue to push the envelope and Lisk may well end up being more fully featured than Eth when all is said and done.
