[ANN] Firo (FIRO) - Implementing ZKP privacy without trusted setup

[JasonSW]

What benefits does Zcoin have over Pivx? Pivx is PoS and Zcoin is PoW, correct? What other differences are there?

Just saw an announcement that they "became the first Proof of stake crypto to successfully mint and spend a zerocoin transaction" and the price was up > 20% today.  

Kidding me? Pivx is a derivative of Dash's masternode. No offense to masternode, but that evil thing gets many coin pumped up. Pivx is simply pieces of hybrids anyways. Is it ironic such a hybrid get the high cap?

Zcoin is original. There are only a few original coins you can name. Before getting coins up onto table for comparison, do your research first please.

Sold most of my Eth on 280euro yesterday, channeled a good segment into XZC... I love this bloodbath hahaha and look how steady zcoin remains around 0.005

Buying my eth back at 175 euro crypto madness, this is the life!

You shouldn't buy back eth. You should simply keep buying XZC.

[JasonSW]

Just curious, wasn't there an plan to get on one of the exchange local to the main dev (I think Indonesian), very soon? How's that coming?

I'll simply stay patience, and buy more when I can be with the price at this level.

pivx is a pump pos coin. who knows who controls the coins or how much they paid (nothing)
theres one difference

watch the video posted above zcoin vs zcash. PIVX is like Zcash, no one knows how many coins truly exist... it is like fools gold... I bought PIVX at $0.14 and sold at $1.80... that was in end of march/early april... since it hasnt moved much... PIVX is just a spin off... Zcoin is a new chapter in crypto anonymity.. and fairly ditributed and mineable... o yeah and Chinese... strenght in numbers will come in to play soon enough after MTP is recognised throughout the crypto sphere... just keep filling your xzc bag if you are smart

pivx has an auditable  supply not that im supporting just helping sort facts

First time actually taking the time to look at this coin. Saw the roadmap had "Znodes" and plans to integrate i2p.
Will these nodes also be able to be hosted on i2p so instead of our ip's being exposed and open to attacks only our b32 will be shown?

If so hows the work on this coming along?

1. To the guy raising PIVX, don't this is a Zcoin thread, it's slightly rude to raise another coin as a topic in and of itself.

2. To the people her criticising PIVX, don't, it was rude of poster to post on it, best response is to ignore, making false derogatory claims about a competitor coin demeans our project here with Zcoin.

3. If you want to know the real advantage of Zcoin over PIVX here you go...Zcoin hasn't had its pump yet, PIVX has. Zcoin has not gone through a proper pump cycle yet - it doesn't mean it ever will, but it well might, then we're all flooding this forum gloating and sharing our (mostly male) internet connection with glee with posts everywhere.

Once a coin has pumped already there's always a risk of a correction. To me, the risk of an already pumped coin correcting down is higher than the risk of a not yet pumped coin with a reasonable development system like Zcoin dying before it gets a turn pumping.

I might be wrong, though.

And for common sense, can everyone just use the Coinomi mobile wallet, surely mobile wallets are more secure than desktop anyway. Not to say devs haven't trucked up the desktop wallet, which they have, but just hold it on Coinomi until the finally get it right - which they'd better, and I think they eventually will - and nodes are implemented.

The Indonesian one hopefully within the next few weeks

The exchange isn't local to the main dev. That's a separate effort. Will announce when it is time.

Wow, I've been away for like a week, what the hell happened to ETH? I know this is the zcoin thread but damn, that's crazy, good on you anyways, careful shorting zcoin though XD haha

ETH is a bubble now, be careful. Also, whats next in roadmap in XZC. Znodes?

[playingpoodles]

How can you even short Zcoin?  Does BTC38 allow short/longs?

It's very unclear if there'll be a major correction in every altcoin now. It looks like there's a good chance. Then the only place to be would be Bitcoin or Tether. I think it's time to sit out and buy back low if there's a major downward correction. I said this a week or 10 days ago, regarding Zcoin, and all the "bull pumpers" shouted me down. I never sell though, and I'll get more Zcoin when the time is right.

Price is holding stable amid this correction phase... Volume in China exceeded $1M again this morning... Healthy buy orders on BTC38 visible...All in all xzc standing its ground well right now

Does anyone remember this gem from a fortnight ago? I questioned the appropriateness of dev announcing that an announcement would take place to pump price. Well it got a mini pump, nothing much. Where was the planned announcement in a week's time? Nada. We got an announcement on the 26th that MTP was being tested (hang on, didn't we get that announcement like a two months before that). Hang on, there is news - it's going to be released in another month and a half.

I don't mind guys here wanting to make a quick buck lying to pump. Like the guy who posted just before me who said MTP has performed well in the recent altcoin slump - what a lie, it's gone down from $19 to $10.50, that's certainly a bigger drop than the about 20% drop of the market as a whole. But I get those guys, they want the price to pump. I want it to pump too, by the way, but I don't think me saying silly lies is going to get that to happen.

I don't particularly like dev communications guy making inappropriate announcements of announcements that turn out to be fairly misleading, because I fear there might be a similar pump motive. My brain scanner isn't working right now, so I can't determinatively look into his brain and reveal his certain motive. But we all know how this game works, I don't like it.

Zcoin has underperformed because a lot of the announcements and promises turned out to be promising more and delivering less. Wonderful we've got a new wallet. Oh wait, it doesn't work. (Thank God for Coinomi, hope you're all using it, that's the only genuine concrete bit of good news for Zcoin). Zcoin ain't going to pump until incentivised nodes are brought in and done right. Then it MIGHT pump.

And like you, I want it to.

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

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

Tell me, how does it feel to imagine yourself Nostradamus? No, really, what is your intention? Whom you try to convince here to sell out?

I really wait that time to come, when every advice/speculation will cause financial responsibility for advisor/speculator!

On topic, I prefer ZCoin have production release on mid/end August, when all uncertainty will be settled, nowadays, there is no point to expect pump.

No, really, if you so unhappy with this coin, why are you wasting time here? I think we have grown up people that can make their decision, you are not saving the world here, trust me.

[playingpoodles]

Since you asked, yes, I like being me. Why did I post that about the devs doing what I think was a misleading pump announcement of an announcement - because I don't like it. I think it gives someone some short term gain - them? - but it's shortsighted. You build trust and long term significant price rise by doing things the proper way. Dash did this. They started off with an instamine and got hated by everyone. But then they did it right and by the book, and all of the early investors would be extremely wealthy now.

My comments can't influence the market price one way or another. They can perhaps inform it.

Look at you frustrated loser calling everybody a liar lol.. ZCoin recently went from $8 to $18.... and gradually came down as is normal after a pump i might add... Then last week Ethereum - the hottest stock in the world right now - crashed nearly 30% and zcoin remained relatively stable...so where is the lie again?

Besides, whats wrong with you little snowflake..? Crypto too hardcore for your little nerves? This is not a game of safe spaces, this is the Wild Wild West of financial investments.. pump and dump is the name of the game...

By all means sell everything you own and go sing John Lennon songs whilst writing poetry under the rainbow.... But no worries, you have enough self reflection to understand your brain is not working properly LMAO

MTP is underway, it is written in the code..

I wouldn't use 'pump' here in the recent variation when I've been with for months, but rather the pricing moves following the market movement. Remember the whole crypto was going through up and down that in part explains the recent XZC.

When you consider use of pump, you should be aware coins with the PoS, ico, or whatever number of coins bounded to evil things that are completely opposite to the decentralization, will attract the pumpers and get pumped. Simple reasons.

XZC is PoW based, with certain amount of coins minted everyday. There will be little less possibility for the pumpers keen to such a coin cause there are always PoW generation they can't manage. People should be happy with such things, be happy with no-much pricing increase (I'm not meant hate price increase) which is exactly what BTC was anticipating in the early times, for people who just stepped into the coin to have the chance of participating, and for steady growth.

The nowadays crypto get evil already. Why would one expect a rise in price by release? Of course, there is a relation in-between, but that's not all about it.
