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

[Jonesd]

We're over 66700! Happy new fork day everyone!

[ecoin_org]

Anyone know what to do if transaction stuck at 0 confirmations from 7 blocks prior to 66700?

I tried rebroadcast transaction, nothing seems to be picking it up.

Also tried restarting the wallet and doing it.

Congratulations!,
Now the block reword is 28?

         Stanford released a paper titled "Bulletproof Technologies: A Short Proof of Confidentiality Transactions," a new zero-knowledge proof system: bulletproofs. Stanford University Applied Cryptography Group - is already working on bulletproof Technology.At present, the proposal of zero-knowledge proof of confidential transaction either makes the block data to be quite large or needs to establish trust.                   The zcoin development team should also focus on this new technology to avoid future technologies being eliminated

However, as stated in the Bulletproofs paper: “Current proposals for CT zero-knowledge proofs have either been prohibitively large or required a trusted setup.

Just wanted to let everyone know that MintPond mining pool is live at https://mintpond.com

We are in desperate need of more hash so if any of you miners have some to spare it would be greatly appreciated!

Znode is running now what is the block reward for peoples that is mining it?

[funnel]

The block reward fell from 40 to 28, so -30% profits...

28 xzc per block

Any idea about an other coin to CPU mine ?

Monero or Aeon. It depends on the CPU though, and Zcoin is still quite profitable despite the extra tax.

(Normally I would dismiss such questions as off-topic. However, losing miners to other coins is something you should expect when introducing masternodes, especially at such a high tax.)

15 XZC goes to znodes?

Someone has problems with Suprnova?

Im mining and my dashboard is ok and shows the hashrate.

But there is no transaction since 1 day?

Whats going on ?

Hi,

ANy know why hash rate on ccminer and on pool is different. CCminer shows 9000 on pool only 4900 ?

most of miners show bad info, look at this - https://github.com/djm34/ccminer-msvc2015

Should be best.

There's not much hash left as The pool closes soon. Either move your hash to the "centralizer" or to one of the smaller pools

If you have less than 1000 coins, can you still stake ZCoin?

There is no Proof-of-Stake in Zcoin. For that you might look at other coins such as Peercoin, where the whole idea was conceived.

Znodes don't increase the money supply by staking, they only redistribute the usual 50 XZC block rewards (thus making the rich even richer, to put it bluntly).

started getting into this around august when it was $5. no regrets.

This coin is mineable only by CPU or by GPU too?
