What is the relation to the original ProjectWyvern

[e-nikolov]

I didn't find anything official on the history of project wyvern.

Is this repository an official continuation of the original https://github.com/ProjectWyvern/wyvern-ethereum made by the same team? Or is it an independent fork?

It seems that the original stopped being maintained somewhere in 2018 and I can't find anything from the lead developer(?) @protinam after that.

Who is maintaining the websites https://projectwyvern.com and https://wyvernprotocol.com?

Also what is the relation to opensea? They recently released version 2.3 of their copy(?) of the wyvern exchange.

I also found some invites to an official discord channel, but they are all expired, is that channel still alive?

Hey @e-nikolov yes it is the same project and developers.

There was an SSD loss incident that resulted in a bunch of admin accounts (Github, Discord, Twitter, etc.) being lost.

One of the community members is maintaining the websites.

While OpenSea uses Wyvern, the two are totally separate things (and teams). Wyvern is an open source protocol and DAO - while OpenSea is by far the largest user, there are others in development and will be many others. Version 2.3 is just an updated version of Wyvern 2.0 (currently the most recent is 3.x). Same project, different versions.

We've started a new Discord here: https://discord.com/invite/weUTpah286

Overall - Wyvern will be improving it's externally facing areas (website, docs, discord, community, etc.) in the coming months.
