Zclassic is a fork of Zcash 1.0.1 with minimal changes except for 2 major things. 1. 20% Founders Reward is removed. 2. Slow start is removed (blocks start at 12.5 ZCL rewards per block). Parameters: PoW: Equihash Halving rate: Every 4 years (same as Zcash and bitcoin). Starting Block Reward: 12.5 coins every 2.5 minutes (Same as Zcash. 50 coins per 10 minutes, like Bitcoin). Total eventual supply: 21,000,000 (21 million), as per Bitcoin (Unchanged from Zcash) Difficulty adjustment algorithm: Digishield V3 (Unchanged from Zcash) Difficulty adjusts each block (Unchanged from Zcash) Symbol: ZCL (pronounced "ZICKLE" like "NICKEL") Trusted Parameters Zcash (and Zclassic) relies on trust that a private key was destroyed. If anyone poseses the private key, that person can mint unlimited coins for himself/herself. Zcash designed a ceremony where 6 individuals each created a shard of a private key and destroyed it. As long as all 6 individuals did not conspire and collude to share their shards, the private key is destroyed. Here are mre details about the ceremony. https://z.cash/blog/the-design-of-the-ceremony.htmlZclassic uses the exact same trusted parameters Zcash uses. This is also what Peter Todd suggests: https://www.reddit.com/r/ZClassic/comments/5bbpmr/we_should_invite_petertodd_to_our_trusted_setup/Block explorer: https://classic.zcha.in/https://zclassic.31337.eu/insight/https://cronicc.github.io/Website: http://zclassic.orgCoinMarketcap http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/zclassic/WhatToMine http://www.whattomine.com/coins/167-zcl-equihashSource Code: https://github.com/z-classic/zclassicReddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ZClassic/Slack Invite (over 300 members): http://zclassic.herokuapp.com/Freenode IRC: #zclassiccoin Pools: https://pool.mn/zclassichttps://www2.coinmine.pl/zclhttps://pool.cryptobanx.io/zcl/https://zcl.suprnova.cc/https://zclassic.miningpoolhub.com/Exchanges: https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Exchange/?market=ZCL_BTChttps://c-cex.com/?p=zcl-btchttps://www.tradesatoshi.com/Exchange?market=ZCL_BTChttps://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-ZCLTwitter Social Proof: https://twitter.com/SatoshiLite/status/796058283312189440https://twitter.com/zooko/status/795002870651322370Medium: https://decentralize.today/zcash-miners-stop-paying-20-genius-tax-486d9f40884fhttps://decentralize.today/five-reasons-zcash-is-the-most-corporate-cryptocoin-youve-ever-seen-a77ac430b0e8Announcements [Pre Ann] https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1671125.msg16781376#msg16781376https://twitter.com/HeyRhett/status/794773732933799936https://twitter.com/HeyRhett/status/794799248759885825Todo: Windows Wallet IOS / Android Wallet Note from developer: I started this work on my own, writing Medium articles and reaching out to people on Twitter because I believe the ZK-SNARK technology in Zcash is the future of money, but I couldn't stomach the idea of it being taxed 20% by a small group of people. To be honest, I never made an altcoin before. I spent a week on my own obsessing over the Zcash code to see what could be done. Soon after the Zcash launch, I submitted a pull-request to remove the Founder's Reward, which was quickly closed: https://github.com/zcash/zcash/pull/1714When I found out SuprnovaPools had 51%+ mining power of Zcash, I reached out to them to use my fork: https://twitter.com/HeyRhett/status/792787816329515009After failing at those two approaches, on Halloween, I announced, "I'm forking Zcash with no 20% Founders Reward. Ping me to help. There won't be any reward for helping." https://twitter.com/HeyRhett/status/793201219393105921I offer my sincere apology to the community for people who feel they may have missed the announcement because there wasn't enough advance notice. I was reaching out to people, but I did not have the large exposure of a foundation with investors. Now that the coin is live, most of what you see above is work done by the community. This coin is almost 4 days old, and I'm amazed at what we've done so far.

Bitcoin addresses contain a checksum, so it is very unlikely that mistyping an address will cause you to lose money.

We don't know the initial mining power, and it will adjust each block. We expect to have much lower initial mining power than Zcash or Bitcoin. If we leave it at default zcash difficulty, it will take days to mine a block What do you suggest?

I suggest to keep it as in zcash, it's not so hard actually (just 256 times harder) it's still mineable with single CPU. This way you will not break existing software already implemented for zcash. Look at all scrypt forks, they never changed powLimit to stay 1-1 with original. This is correct, because zcash is first equihash coin and its powLimit now is a "standard" actually. And it's necessary to keep it to prevent instamine due to lack of slow start.

I believe this is fixed now on dev branch, which is what we're testing. consensus.powLimit = uint256S("0007ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff"); consensus.nPowAveragingWindow = 17; Thank you, please review this branch, we need feedback before the launch! You made this change.
consensus.nPowAveragingWindow = 0;
Do you know what you're doing?

Lol yeah Yobit and maybe TradeSatoshi that exchange looks real good I like the 0 volume for just about every single coin. So Mt.Gox, Yobit and TradeSatoshi sounds like a plan !

Yeah, why must it be launched as soon as possible. At least let people find out about it. Mining as soon as possible is similar to a premine.
