Well okay - since you ask, it benefits me in the short term, but I find it highly improper for a developer to announce a week before that a week later an announcement will be made. To me the it's unprofessional, even if it is motivated by a desire to pump XZC and even if I benefit from it in the short term.

Why are you making an announcement now that you're making an announcement in roughly a week's time?

Why don't you make an announcement in a week's time, I mean the actual announcement, rather than the announcement of the announcement - isn't that normal practice?

I mean, I'm okay with you pumping my coins, I suppose. Just found it strange.

We will be making an announcement in roughly a week's time Smiley

Anyway you can always follow our github (and its various branches) to see what we are working on.

I find strange, that you found strange that "your" coins are pumped and you complain  Huh Wonder what can be stranger than my situation  Grin Strange

You're looking into this a little too hard. It basically says we will have some news for you in about a week. Don't understand why you find it so difficult to understand?

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

so the hacker still cashing his 388k coins .  

I like the efforts of pushing this coin forward, but its all a gimmick coin without any truly worldclass dev.  One more baloon going up.

And 20% fee is just ridiculous.  Crypto world is getting even worse than the Central Banks , and economic corruption we are trying to fight.


Prices are rising and hackers are happy

Personnaly, I'm ok with you.

However:
- It's crypto world, no friends in business. Devs and zcoin team are here for money too.
- We know MTP testing will be for may / june / jully. If you continue to play during this period, You have to accept to loose somes coins. Personnaly, I stop playing last week for same reason describe here.

XZC after ironed out it's true potential will be around 0.1 btc or even  more , as its a better version of ZCash.

I just hope the team spends more in marketing efforts and spread the word.

I've filled my bags going to sit and wait now

Oh how your opinions change day to day....

Yep i sold around 630k , been thinking this last few days. I'm out all of the coins that aren't community projects, or don't have a reasonable funding model. The more i thought i can't wrap my head around the fact that it's a 20% fee! It's simply not sustainable neither reasonable.

Good luck to everyone . I'm out of here.

So nice of you to come and post here now that you're not an investor in the coin. Hilarious. 

On the flip side, hopefully the MTP testing has begun and is proceeding as desired (no major issues)?

Reminds me of my last job where we had meetings to discuss future meetings, drove me nuts.

Reason is pretty simple.

If we announce the news now, media no longer wants to pick it up because it's 'old news' and we don't get the coverage we want. This was confirmed from our consultation with our newly appointed PR company.

At the same time, we don't want investors to think that we are simply teasing. If we release the news out of no where, there will be accusations of 'insider' trading but frankly, anyone who follows this coin in BCT, Slack, Telegram or even Twitter would know what this announcement would be. Our github commits are descriptive. We are excited and we know that many people have been hounding us DAILY for news updates so the announcement is more to say 'hang on guys, there will be an announcement and this is the timeframe to expect it in' so please don't chase Cheesy. But at the end of the day, investing is your own business decision and we are all in it for the long term. The fact that the founder's wallets all remain relatively untouched despite massive profits is a strong testament to that.

The announcement is for the benefit of the people who have been faithfully following and patiently waiting for us all these months.

No major issues on MTP. Miner development is a bit slower than we expected because djm34 is currently relocating his home but all soon will become clear Cheesy Our devs are now working on those experiencing the sync issues as we think it's critical we iron these out.

As for those claiming that the dev is just a 'Bitcoin clone', try think why it has taken so long for anyone else to implement the Zerocoin protocol and try to code something from purely an academic paper (MTP). We have many coins eager to implement the Zerocoin technology and we understand that there are attempts to code independent implementations of it (which we applaud since it only serves to make the tech stronger), we remain currently the only original implementation of it. We aren't resting on our laurels however and are eager to improve our Zerocoin implementation which we will see over the coming months.

What is the name of the Telegram group? I tried @ZCoinXZC which had been previously mentioned, but when I searched for it did not find it in Telegram.

Hope I'm not asking this in the wrong forum.  I was playing with proxy settings on zcoin-qt version 0p8p7p8.  Apparently I really fubar-ed the settings.  zcoin-qt crashed and now will not run at all.  When I try to restart, it gives two odd error messages and shuts down.  I cannot get to the settings tab to change the bogus proxy settings.  Tried extracting the .exe only, from zip.  No joy.  Same error messages, same crash.  Do there exist configuration files somewhere, that hold proxy tab settings?  Something I can edit with a text editor?

First error message:
zcoin = Error
Incorrect or no genesis block found.  Wrong datadir for network?
[OK?]

Second error message:
Runtime Error!
Program: C:\coinhome\Zcoin\zcoin-qt.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information. 
[OK?]

depend on your electricity and future price of zcoin surely, you should check mining calculator such as   https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/calculator/zec?HashingPower=200&HashingUnit=H%2Fs&PowerConsumption=200&CostPerkWh=0.12

and hash rate for 470 is around 220 i think ?  https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/sapphire/radeon-rx-470-zcash-mining/
