Looking at the archive I can see the personal info of the team, at least the core team. I couldn't find the Team info anywhere on their website.
For me this is just covering of the traces.
If it was a legit project manager, it would have left a note with explanation for those who are affected by their actions.
If I was holding their coins I would definitely run to sell them after this kind of action.
Changed hands or not this account cannot be trusted.

I remember a few months ago, I guess they themselves hired spammers to shill in that thread, I remember because I reported a lot of posts from there to moderators.
Yep, they definitely hired shillers to bump their thread as I also reported some of them when I discovered that same group of accounts was working on 6 different ann threads.Before that he was mostly speaking Chinese language and using machine translation to post in other local boards, than he switched to Russian language in 2019 and 2020.
It's possible that someone could speak both of this languages but I doubt that is the case here.
My conclusion: Account changed hands.
Looking at post history, I don't think that account changed hands. Its true that they most likely used translation tool to post in bunch of local boards (Indian, Chinese, Hebrew, Portuguese, French and few others ) but it was only done in relation to their project and they only made couple of posts in those languages, for example only 3 in Chinese. Huge majority of posts were written In Russian ( from 2017 to 2020) and in English ( from 2015 to 2021) so I don't see any drastic change of behavior. It's possible that someone could speak both of this languages but I doubt that is the case here.
My conclusion: Account changed hands.

I don't see anything strange about this account deleting content of their topic especially when this ANN topic was made back in 2015, except maybe that account changed hands in 2018 when password was changed.

deleting an opening post doesn’t mean much. ANN as with any other project.
If you check the last few pages from this thread, you can find that there is almost all talking about Decent scams. they left the project and investors a long time ago.

They just logged in a few day ago and deleted the OP.
For me, this is just a shady behavior and I tagged the OP.
Luckily we have the Way Back machine an here is the Original Post > is here
In addition there are a few scam accusations by different users left on their trust page.
Here is the additional info for the project:
