I've been trying to teach myself about crypto-currencies lately. The other night I was mining the long defunct Coinye-Coin and I got to thinking, could a revival be possible?
Obviously, do to the legal threats, the coin would need to be significantly re-branded, I'm no lawyer but I think it would be possible to tone down the Kayne imagery to something that gets the parody accross, but isn't so blatant I get a call from Kayne's lawyers.
Would it be as simple as forking the code from github and making a few changes, then setting up new nodes? Or would it be much more involved than that. If you have any insight, please let me know. I think Coinye revival is my next spare time project.
Do you remember this coins launch? Did you bank any Coinye?
Hi, glad I found this. Yes, I mined COYE right when it came out, just opened my wallet and noticed it was synching to one other person. I'm here and ready to bring it back.

same here, are you currently running a node/wallet? My wallet synched this morning and I have 1 active connection, curious who it may be?

We totally need to bring this one back to life! I have some great ideas. Firstly, it would need to be rebranded, I suggest Magic Beans!??

Actually, in keeping with the theme of the coin, how about Defunct Coin (DEF). I too am happy to help new wallet holders to get things moving. Rebrand and coin faucet?

Is it possible to bump this post? There is still no answer to the original question. How does one take a coin such as this revive the network and commit code? Is it simply a case of establishing nodes on the network?
Or should I just google it?
