YES!!! That's my biggest issue with this coin... the owner was supposed to get 10% but ending up getting 20% someone on the github brought this up, but the response was the creator would have to ask "investors"

Were GPU miners released or something ? Hashrate is now to a huge 1700 kH/s !

Yep, on 90% statistics, price on minor exchange will double when hit big exchanges at beginning. Then stabilize.
I think most users,investors are afraid to trade on nova. That exchange was also hacked one time recently, but now seems ok.

Wondering why bittrex still doesn't listed xzc.

Ohyea, was only aware of Cryptopia at the time.

Lol two whole BTC on the buy side. Can't stop this rocketship now!

How can zk proofs make other coins obsolete when xmr has no weak points anymore, it's perfect anonymity (who, when, where, how much, using what), without a trusted set up, without lack of a way to check if a trusted setup was broken or another exploit was found. It looks like zero knowledge proofs are just a longer way to do the same thing. And optional anonymity plus knowledge about money sums sent in zerocoin are behind xmr at the moment, unless they change it.

I don't get it.

Its funny people compare xmr with zcash in this thread. So why are we all here in this obvious zcash fork that is trying to get a piece of zcash hype? Devs deleted my previous post and Im ready to open a new thread if you keep deleting my posts. Can you please tell me why do we need another fork of zcash when the actual one is about to release? What are you doing with your coins?

Thank you, it's good to have a link here. but I read the entire website before I posted here. Lets just wait until someone else answers.

I'm asking you how technology is better than a much more established technology. You're saying subjective stuff like fud and troll. This is my only account. I want to know if I should be interested in zcash and so far I haven't seen a single article that's accurate about competition that shows how it's better. How is it hijacking thread if I'm literally asking you about zcoin. Only reason I brought up zcash is it has some similarities in the trusted set-up which I still don't understand the necessity for. I don't care about xmr being overpumped too fast and falling in value, explain to me why I should buy zerocoin and how it's not just another coin, there are so many people asking these questions and no one seems to be able to answer them. If this was a bitcoin fork, I'd ask why is this better than bitcoin - it's a valid question and your short response lacks any details. I worry you're just an early buyer just trying to promote a coin for trading and not interested in privacy and security in general, so you don't matter, people who want to actually use and hold this tech matter.



If that's true, yeah, that's kind of mean spirited of them. However, every post I've seen was them criticizing security and privacy flaws, not people in general. And as the foremost experts in the field on privacy tech they are often very right, as demonstrated when they deanonimized shadowcash in a day after similarly people were calling their facts fud or trolling or whatever else people say to dismiss critique.

Critique is healthy and necessary if crypto revolving around privacy, security, and safety can succeed. Also p.s. they have never worked on a gui miner or gui wallet so that's why it's not done.

I'm interested in the best privacy coins, my questions are often asked so this would be place to answer them and help me see how I'm wrong.

Better how? Pretty much everyone agrees xmr is a better choice for many reasons. Please specify some reasons rather than just using "holy grail" expression as your evidence. Please specify how I am a troll rather than someone who simply knows both technologies and xmr is clearly superior. This is old subject why zcash and zcoin can't possibly succeed or be trusted.

There are tons of sources for zcash/zcoin issues. No one in the right mind would use a trusted set-up AND anonymity - it's a perfect set up for a scam that all z crypto could be, no one can know if they are - that's the problem. xmr has min of 3 mixins now, ringct, i2p, there is not a single not anonymous thing about it and yet does not require trusted set up and open for examination that no exploits have been found at same time. Since zerocoin shows amount sent, it's effectively about as anonymous as dash. It's a joke.

Your turn.

I look at it this way, at a 200k marketcap, this coin is a steal, if it even gets 1-3% of the marketcap Zerocash will this is very cheap.

zerocoin protocol is not holy grail for anonimity. no one wants it because it depends on a trusted party. this one also fails in that it shows how much money is being sent with supposedly positive side that you can check if someone created infinite money via bug, which you can't do with zcash. However, showing how much is sent is effectively breaking anonymity by letting you scan for money signatures, the trusted central party (and founders reward) are huge red flags which make zcash and zcoin completely horrific for anonimity. I don't see how this is better than Monero - requires no trusted setup, no founders reward, no central party, no money displayed, a way to check if system was compromised as a whole, one of the most tested anonimity tech now with zero compromises. there is nothing not anonymous about Monero with i2p and RingCT already on test net. zcash and zcoin is nothing but people trying to capitalize on the success of the best anonymous crypto sadly, as can be evidenced by "founders reward"

Good job devs. Why not just hop on to the zcash hype train right? And getting %20 of the rewards just like them must be very satisfying. I'm wondering if you even started to liquidate your coins since there are people with some buy orders. Broken algo, broken code. And no one cares about it. A lot of botnets also ruining the network.

Developer subsidy is pretty hefty. 10 coins per block...

Hey, Zcoin evangelizers!
What you think about CredaCash?

0.03KH/s with an i7-6700K at 4.2Ghz. is it even possible to get higher hashrates? refuses to start mining on a FX-8150.

Im trying to feed the noonce loop into an opencl kernel so we can finally GPU mine this coin however upon looking at the code its messed up.

LYRA2 is a matrix, usually of 2 or 4. However for this coin the matrix = height; so with every new block the matrix gets bigger and bigger and it will get harder and harder to solve. Pretty much like the difficulty bomb with ETHEREUM.
