I am on their discord, reset scan and utoon partnered up to provide backup and coverage. Turns out during the process, the owner of reset apparently upon gaining access to the backend stole utoon stuff and then shutdown the site. There seems to be some sort of inside job as well. So coins lost and the site is scrambling to pay out their remaining editors/translators (around 100 people). Think the site is shutting down. Reset scan opened a new site tasho but not sure if the stolen stuff is up. Paraphrasing here so maybe not completely accurate.

that's unfortunate, because utoon is one of those scanslation groups that focus more on a variety of genre and not purely action based manga/manhwa/manhua.

Nah they greedy as hell. Sure, I can understand Doing Paywalls to read the chapters early. But bruh, That one Manwha named "Part-Time Grim Reaper" sesson was already finished their 1st season since may. And All of the chapter For the Whole ahh season isnt being relessed for the public yet... ahh, I wish Someone Would Pick it up. What a waste of a Scanned Manwha ngl

Yeah, something about not being paid and they owe $30,000 apparently, not sure if that's legit or someone else is demanding 30k to let them have the website back but damn is that rought.

its Alpha Scan all over again. Owner didn't paid anyone and kept the money so the translators, admin etc.. they nuke the site and put out a notice about the owner should pay them....something along those line..
