[xiaolin1579]

Hi,

We've added XZC the miners multipool: www.phi-phi-pool.com
No Registration required.  Rewards will be sent to your address every 2 hours for all balances above 0.005, or 0.0005 on Sunday.

Lyra2Z pool:

https://www.phi-phi-pool.com/site/gomining?algo=lyra2z

Explorer:

https://phi-phi-pool.com/explorer/XZC

Phi Phi Pool found XZC blocks:

https://phi-phi-pool.com/site/block?id=1456

Example config below

To get paid in XZC:

Code:

ccminer.exe -a lyra2z -o stratum+tcp://pool1.phi-phi-pool.com:4553 -u <XZC_WALLET_ADDRESS>.RigName -p stats,c=XZC

To get paid in BTC:

Code:

ccminer.exe -a lyra2z -o stratum+tcp://pool1.phi-phi-pool.com:4553 -u <BTC_WALLET_ADDRESS>.RigName -p stats,c=BTC

Cheers!

Did anybody try to upgrade znode to latest 0.13.5 version? I stuck at "error while loading shared libraries: libdb_cxx-4.8.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" when daemon launches. VPS has been set up according to official Znode setup guide. Ubuntu 16.04.

Found instructions on discord.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool autotools-dev automake pkg-config libssl-dev libevent-dev bsdmainutils libboost-all-dev
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common

Hi,

What is the requirement for starting Znode and is there any tuturial for starting znode in windows.

Hi,

What is the requirement for starting Znode and is there any tuturial for starting znode in windows.

A Znode requires

1000 XZC (refundable at any time)
A computer or VPS with a fixed IP address
1 GB of RAM
Enough disk space to store the blockchain (25gb is recommended for the moment)
Typically a VPS of this specification costs around USD5 to run a month per node and you can head on to Amazon AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, Leaseweb, Vultr, Linode, or DigitalOcean to obtain a basic VPS when Znodes are launched. There will also be Znode providers who can assist you to set this up and/or maintain it for a small fee.

You can find setup guides here:

Botnets on zcoin becomes bigger and bigger. developers, what are you going to do with that shit?

22GH!!!! it's roughly 13K high end gpus like gtx1070, don't tell bs that this is not a botnet  
Almost 99% of network are controlled by MPH. Great decentralizatin. It's sad that zcoin becomes a new one coin that was fckd up by botets

Well I am not able to mine this coin due to that as difficulty is very high but this also shows how incompetent developer of this coin are as to letting those guys f*****g the whole network and the pillar of the network miners are getting nothing to support the network.

This shows mostly how self centric the developers are as they are not taking steps to avoid that.

Maybe they will someday wake from there sleep.

ZCoin is already on Bittrex, right? Is not that a good sign? I only trust certain facts. I believe in projects like Safinus, which all do transparently

[forensick]

Confirmation time when sending to bittrex is very long
The purpose of masternodes was not to improve speed of transactions?

I think it is a problem of bittrex wallet system. Masternodes wil validate computationally expensive zerocoin transactions as I understood.

I don't know much about botnets but is there anything that the developers could do immediately to solve the problem?

[Boriss]

It seems they will solve this problem when they change algo in the future.

My first transfer of XZC from Binance to desktop core wallet has 40 confirmations but not showing up in the wallet. Have I done something wrong? Is there a forum or something?

Is your desktop wallet fully synced with the chain?

[coinpreacher]

after update to v0.13.5.6 there is no blocksource. Two chains maybe ?

Guys! Why do you think than Lyra2Z algo can use botnet?
Have many other coins with Lyra2Z, but there not botnet. 

[kchulani]

I have held onto Zcoin for quite sometime I believe in the project. Does anyone know ifthere are any updates coming to this coin in the near future? I was having trouble with it's wallet a couple weeks ago but that solved itself.

yeah, project can lose many participants when miners-investors lose interest and faith in zcoin.
Since september we are waiting for official p2pool. But still almost 90% of network hashrate are on MPH, which supports botnets cause they are donating.
So upset

Maybe MTP will help. We don't know almost anything about parameters of upcoing MTP hashing algorithm.

Where do you see "many coins with lyra2z algo"? Just few copycat shitcoins.
Do you know any other altcoin on lyra2z algo with comparable high daily emission in $?
They mining Zcoin on cpu instances because hashing speeds on modern cpus are almost comparable with gtx 160 and even gtx 1070 on this hashing algorithm.

Read discord, there are no secret about exists large botnets based on hacked/stolen aws cpu instances.
Just one example of a caught "small" 1Gh botnet based on cpu instances

Don't they even have a developer fee coming from every single block? Maybe that is why they haven't paid attention yet to the problem.

Maybe They are Shitcoins but again they are much better as rewards are coming for miners even small miners. Sometimes developers are going for money and just ignore the strenght of coins. Let me tell you if there will be no miners to mine how come coins will move transactions maybe Dev will workout with those guys with 20-22Ghs Hashrate. I have 40MH still it shows it will take 50-60 days geez. I can earn double of triple mining other coins.

To me this is the Shitcoin not other coins. I know some people will not like what I say but this is truth and truth hurts.

Again If anybody felt bad. I apologize.
