Reindexing doesnt help if you have problematic block files.
Just download blockchain data and delete old one completely.
Download link: https://bootstrap.zcoin.io/snapshot.zip

"
To speed up the download of the Zcoin blockchain, you can use these snapshots that are updated every hour. The archive contains two folders which need to be placed in your Zcoin data folder.

Steps:
1. Shutdown your Zcoin wallet.
2. Browse to your Zcoin data directory.

Windows
%appdata%\zcoin

3. Make a copy of wallet.dat and store it somewhere safe. (just in case!)
4. Delete the folders blocks and chainstate in your existing Zcoin data folder.
5. Extract the contents of the archive into your Zcoin data folder.
6. Start the wallet with a reindex, and it will start syncing again.
The blocks will need to be verified by your wallet. Please be patient! The reindex takes about 40 minutes on v0.13.5.7.

ZCoin has been developing continuously, and technology has been improving. It has always been a coin of great concern. There is no need to worry that it will sink. That's why I like it.

With good work of devs we will see 150$ per XZC this year.

With good work of devs we will see 150$ per XZC this year.

I think in a very short period we will see 70$ Per xzc, and in month or two i think it will over zcash,
Maybe i am wrong, not sure but let’s wait a little more....

Zcoin now listed on MND!

Our team has officially announced support for ZCoin Masternodes: https://www.reddit.com/r/zcoin/comments/8eytu0/zcoin_masternode_setup_services_setup_masternodes/

This is clearly an option, and the team does not require any access to the wallet or server. It is exciting to see the progress of the ZCoin team, and where it is going with the growth of their masternode community  

Excited about this. Great news.

All of us especially have a preformed idea of what a wallet looks like now and most things are just minor variations. Maybe what will really work will look and behave radically differently.Sadly nobody has managed that for any crypto yet, let alone something with the level of complexity of Zcoin minting.

[gildinglite]

One of the few solid ~200m caps left to acquire before the next bull run.

Is MTP still going to happen?  I know that there were delays but we're well into 2018 now and the roadmap in the OP still shows that it was supposed to have been implemented last year.

Will zcoin still be asic resistance. Will zcoin be mined on different algo?

Yes, there will be Algo change like they said many times, you can read about it in previous posts and watch some official videos on YouTube channel.

Zcoin seems to soon reach the $ 100 price, I'm sure soon happens this year, there is no doubt to hold Xzc in a long time because I'm sure Xzc can be like NEO.

[ANN] zFastminer-v2.3.2 Most Powerful And Profitable Zcoin xzc Miner On Poolside For NVIDIA Pascal GPUs
***** Optimized For MiningPoolHub - Fork from tpruvot ccminer 2.2.5 *****

Update May 4th: Updated Version Release: zFastminer-v2.3.2

Changelog:

• Fixed Stratum connection Bug.
• Added support for IP addresses as URL- please choose the best IP for you with the lowest ping.
• Attempt to reduce power spikes.
• Mining Rigs with less then 2 GPU's not Supported.
• Max GPU's support increased to 19 per Rig.
• '--hide-diff' is ON by default to reduce CPU usage.
• Small Reduction of the Intensity for better stability.
• Compiled with Cuda 9.2

Regarding power spikes:
We have looked about this issue with ccminer and found out that some users found solution by using '-plimit' option to limit the max power usage of the GPU's(in addition to MSI afterburner), you can set values per GPU like this:

Code:

zFastminer-v232 -a lyra2z -o stratum+tcp://asia.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20581 -u USERNAME.NewWORKERNAME -p x -q -plimit 60,60,60,60,60,60,60,60

This sets 60% power limit for each GPU on a rig with 8 GPU's, try this option with your preferred power percentage

Regarding MPH ongoing maintenance and stratum connection issues:
We enabled using IP address as URL and now you can choose the best IP address with the lowest ping for you and you shouldn't have connection problem anymore.
For example:

Code:

zFastminer-v232 -a lyra2z -o stratum+tcp://139.162.132.70:20581 -u USERNAME.NewWORKERNAME -p x -q

List of IP addresses:
https://check-host.net/check-dns?host=europe.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com

How to Test Ping?:
Open command prompt/PowerShell and type:

Code:

ping us-east.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com

And you will see something like that:

Code:

It is up on you , because if you believe so much in the cryptocurrency there's no way to sell it because the price is falling down

Before the 48gb comes to mph, luck was 90%, now 120%...
Same number of blocks in 24 hours ...

[GreenPanda]

Everytime I start to mine this coin, pool gets unlucky AF! Getting close to 900% of expected shares on MPH on the next block! urghhhhh (At that point, the pool reportings may be having troubles though)

[go6ooo1212]

The question is what type of hardware stands behind such huge hashing power...
