I doubt how earthcoin can be revived... too old nothing new

A rebranch will help for sure, look at SUM2, i don't understand why it is not happening, is it so difficult to change it, more then a million dollar has been used to mine this one, i think that the dev team needs to have some more respect to the people that supported the coin and do the necessary steps to move this one up.

To create a new coin with same spec is easy, enhance it with other features easy too (such as PoW/PoS, X11/X13, with anon wallet etc), the problem is that it is virtually not possible to do a smooth "switchover", meaning at a given future time T, before T, everything runs as the current coin, and after that point, all runs at new spec. This is why, usually a smooth saving of an old coin is difficult, people prefer to create a new coin with better features.



In some case I see, dev (or new dev taking over) just create a new coin with improved spec, with same amount of coins, then swap it with old coins. This may involve a lot of work though, and has to deal with exchanges etc.
