You were correctly reporting from a fork version.
But if you look here, this is from the "proprietary" version, and most files look updated:
https://github.com/fastcoinproject/fastcointhis is not from a fork.
The forked file you reported could be from a detractor as well.
Yeah... a user named "fastcoin" (community member "CheetahX" on BitcoinTalk) has
re-uploaded the entire code base of FastCoin to make it look like there is activity. The code that was re-uploaded is exactly the same as the current version (8.x). You can see for yourself via GitHub versions.
In his stupidity, he doesn't realise that's not how GitHub/software projects work. You don't start off with uploading the most up-to-date version in one commit lol You upload the the most basic version and then work on it and commit over a period of months and years. This is just a desperate pump scheme and I hope others will understand my efforts at giving this warning and will see through these transparent lies.
If the real devs cared (like M0glie and Ed Blaha), they would comment here or on reddit. But guess what, they don't. It's just one community user hiding behind the fastcoin name both here and on Slack, GitHub and Twitter.
I do not understand why that certain community member feels the need to do useless things like the stuff above, the awfully hype-ish twitter posts and promises with no clear dates.
This coin speaks for itself. There is no need for some halfwit user to promote it when the devs have stated time and again that they are BUSY WITH OTHER THINGS and cannot work on this coin full time.
When they have the time, they will push real updates and give real value to this coin.
The above action was not useless, though I certainly would have done it differently to preserve the commit history.
They must be planning an update to fastcoin based off Bitcoin 0.15. Since Github only allows one repo per account to be forked from a particular repo (in this case bitcoin), then the old repo was deleted. It may have been forked from litecoin. A better way to do this would be to mirror the fastcoin repo to a local machine, then delete the fastcoin repo on github. Create it again as a blank repo, then push all the branches back to the fastcoin-project account. I have done this a few times and it preserves the entire commit history. The developers can still do this, unless none of them kept their local copies. I had a few branches on my local machine, if they are needed.
