Am I the only person following this coin. Thread seems dead 

Following this coin as well. Really like the roadmap.

Hello guys,

No one died!

We are doing the new OP, if you have any doubts or suggestions we are here.

I also suggest you use Slack or Telegram.

how is price going up

not only price but buying interest as well. there was roughly 6-8 btc worth of orders stacked in the buy a week ago. now that's up to 25 btc. not many people selling either. should continue to push up from here. really could use an update!

i'm most interested in progress towards getting listed on bittrex and getting the windows wallet updated further for full release (i'm currently actively using it with no problems so far)

What's the advantage of HUSH over Zcash?

Are you using Zcash's difficulty and not really Digishield v3?  I would like to see you use

next Diff = (avg past N diff) x (target solve time) / (median past N solve times)

where Zcash uses N=17.  N is not too critical. Larger N is less responsive to network changes but more stable.  

I think Zcash retained some semblance to Digishield v3 by retaining a limit on the increase and/or decrease. This caused oscillation problems in Digishield V1, V2, and Zcash testnet. I was arguing for them to remove those limits completely.  I think they made them high enough that they are mostly irrelevant. But it's better and more scientific to just stick to the observed average.  If a big pool (10x hash rate increase) jumps on for an hour and then off, the penalty of everyone having to wait 10x longer for the next 8 blocks is the best option. If a limit is placed on the difficulty rise, they get blocks cheaper for longer and too many coins will be released per day (assuming you do not make other miners pay the price for the ill-gotten gains by making the fall equally slow).  The core problem is the lack of a valid timestamp. Change the word "median" in the equation to "avg" if you're not like bitcoin and Zcash and are somehow getting a known timestamp.  

If you're using 150 seconds between blocks, the maximum-allowed miner-reported time between blocks should be 1/4 of bitcoin's to minimize time-warp attacks. I think Zcash did not change the max time from bitcoin (3600 seconds?) even though their blocks are coming 4x faster. Time warps seems to be a danger only when there's a potential big miner (>15% network hash rate).  A big miner would want to cycle through small coins so that he has no down time while getting coins with a artificially low difficulty. It's made a little easier if they're all using N=17. Otherwise it seems only beneficial if his primary expense is computing time or electricity.

Just sticking with Zcash is probably fine, but I hate seeing people refer to Digishield because it implies limits on the rise and fall when it's the simple "scientific" average that works. Limits on the rise and fall are a political and ideological influence, wanting to prevent users from suffering long transaction wait times. But it's a violation of the science that has a cost elsewhere (either the coin is released too fast, or small miners suffer). To be more "scientific" N=30 would be good. It would be more stable but less responsive. That's better than keeping a limit on the rise but has a similar effect.

Mid-week update, Week 24
Three days ago I posted the first weekly update 'letter', now I follow up with a mid-week update.
I will try to come with an update every now and then but at least once a week.



Work in progress

• David is still working on the Official Windows Client, as I wrote in last weeks update you can use the experimental windows wallet (the final one will not be very different) created by Ivan Vaklinov.
  Link here: Windows Client
• David is finalizing the rebranding from Zdash to HUSH, in the command line.
• David is also working on the novel secure messaging features.
  
• Iolar and I are finalizing the new OP. I'm hoping to have it published before the Weekend Update
• Continued work on the website, all text that should be updated will be updated.
• I'm able to focus more on the Community from now on. Bought a laptop dedicated to HUSH management yesterday.

Completed work so far this week, that is worth mentioning

• HUSH logo updated on website, social media and exchange. Still waiting for other sites to change.
  
• Contacted a few crypto websites to list HUSH, among them Coincap.io and Coingecko.
  

If you have any questions, just ask us either here or on Slack.


What to look forward to within a near future

• Windows Wallet
  
• New Forum Thread
  
• Road Map in graphics
  
• Completed rebranding
  
• And of course, more of me.

any word on macOS wallet?

[Fulcrum29]

I have been exchanging my HUSH to BTC and exchanging that to ETH and ZEC, as they are both high in value and promising in use, but now I’m keen on holding onto the coin now that the community is more pro-active. Hoping to see it bloom, and it has my support.

My only qualm, that what I have with many coins and ICOs in general, are a community more orientated in seeing the monetary value which is also why so many people are investing in mining and ideas.

I am on the HUSH (or zdash) Slack, keeping an eye, and I’m glad to see to see how responsive David is on providing clarity on every question. As with everything small it eventually grows larger to a desire, and may its similarity (but, uniqueness) to Zcash's position place it in a space where there is demand and use.

May the community be more involved, and may many provide the HUSH team with innovative ideas and to tune David’s ideas to an absolute concrete solution. From hereon I will move my ‘comments’ to Slack as I can see success in this community initiative where contributions are taken into account.

Good luck to the community and team.

hello i tried the windows wallet and it gets an error , i look forward to the full release.. any eta?

yeah its not working. maybe cause i tried to run it from sandboxie.....
oh wait.... damn i created txt file in wrong folder damn it.... my bad. Now it started.
do not run wallet program from sandboxie (some feature is not supported in sandboxie) - deposit worked but sending money makes program turn non-responding (basically endless loop)
But it worked in virtual machine (yeah i'm paranoid)! Deposit worked. withdraw worked too. Fee is only 0.001 now.

wallet is needed now - cause for example cryptopia.co.nz  don't like directly mined hash coins   ....sadly
supernova shows coins....but I fear if i will withdraw them to cryptopia.co.nz ... i will lose them. cause they don't like mined coins for some damn reason.

tried pool.miningspeed.com to mine - horrible for me!   no way i will continue using it. they payed right to cryptopia.co.nz as advertised. thats great! and that is plus.
but more than 9 hours passed before i got actual balance that is not 0. I honestly thought that i was losing electricity and time.....ragequited and stopped miner after 7 hours of 0 balance.
back to supernova. At least they don't show 0 in my balance for long time. i love watching/seeing "progress".
well since windows wallet worked for me.... will use it again as temporal storage before exchange.


you know what would be lovely - ability to see transaction id for sending. just for talking with support or something. or maybe i'm just "blind" and doing all in hurry and don't see that.
yeah i'm blind. its in the "show details" menu in the transaction.  well looks like quite good wallet.

I decided to withdraw from cryptopia and store my hush in a wallet instead, i am not really bag-holding since i bought at 0.16$

Hi guys,

How do you calculate the expected HUSH mined per day?

I am using this formula for other equihash coins, but it does not seem to work for HUSH:

sols_per_diff = 8192
block_reward = 12.5
hashrate = my hashrate (10kh/s)
difficulty = current difficulty (46,695,481.060)
ht = (difficulty * sols_per_diff) / hashrate
cpd = 24 * 60 * 60 * block_reward / ht

where cpd (coins per day) should give me the reward.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance :-)

[boltz]

I really need to study this soon 

[Notyoursbuisness]

Hi guys,

How do you calculate the expected HUSH mined per day?

i'm lazy... just used whattomine.com

That's fine, but I would like to know the actual formula, not the website that shows you your profit, but does not tell you how it is computed.

[Notyoursbuisness]

tested several times - windows wallet works fine.
if its not looking for another best node or something - it turns on quite fast. i think its better to close it with quit button and not by pressing x on boarder of wallet for faster turn on next time. or maybe its just coincidence.


there is one thing that is really bad about this coin.... waiting time on exchange.
it feels like on cryptopia 20/20 confirmations on deposits..... it  takes literally hours.
on bright side moving money is very cheap

Is it safe now to store my tokens in windows wallet build0.68.3,
or should I wait for new bananPi, and put it in there?

[laiguozheshijie]
