That seems like an interesting thing to you! A bit like a modern corporate raider, except you are doing the opposite- reviving dead things!

Can you tell us more? Give some old examples of what you did?

It sounds to me like this poster is straightforwardly asking for coins that can be pumped and dumped one last time.

not sure about that. the profit incentives are not aligned with a simple "pump and dump"

If a listed coin is revived, it should only take some minimal infrastructure spending to keep it alive.

Doing a simple pump and dump would be a waste.

To keep it alive and do what with it?
