Title: Best way to get some ZenCash?
Post by: Krimster on September 08, 2017, 02:12:33 PM
Hello:

I want to buy some Zencash since I see potential in the coin. However, I am having difficulty in deciding how to aquire them. The options I see are:

- Signing up in a exchange that offers it, like Cryptopia. Apart from the hassle, I wonder if the fees will eat up a large part of my investment.
- Buy some hashing power at nicehash.com and point it at some pool (which?). I do have an account with some ~50 mBTC in it, so it would be quite easy. I am just not sure if I am not going to get ripped off.
- Mine it myself. With my modest equipment, I think I can pull some 1200 H/s, which, according to whattomine.com could net me around 0.6 ZEN per day.
The catch is, this number will drop like a meteor if ZEN starts climbing in price (which is what I hope to happen anyway, just not inmediatly).

As this is a really high risk investment, I am not planning on buying more than 15~20 ZEN, which is a very small amount in fiat. What do you people think it is the most sensible course of action?

Thanks!

To my opinion, ZEN lacks seriousness. It's a literal fork with very minor changes from ZEC.I installed the wallet and started mining a couple month ago. The wallet never worked, I lost all my ZEN. To me this is a bullshittcoin, but how really knows... Sill since everything seems to go up these days, I would buy about 2% of my portfolio in it just as a bet !

good luck.

Exchange it with bitcoins in any popular exchange site like bittrex.
If you don't have bitcoins buy it with some fiat.

Because the bittrex exchange site is only the best site that already listed the zencash. Another crappy exchange site such as coss shouldn't be included in the list. Bittrex are not approving the fiat buys. OP must buy the bitcoin and exchange it into the zencash.
