[ANN][ZEN] ZENCASH: Permanent, Distributed, and Fully Anonymous cryptocurrency

[Kahana82]

...
And btw, the blockchain rewards are not implemented afaik

So aside from supporting the project, no point in running a secure node atm then ?

[br2459]

ZenCash and ZClassic seems to be (temporarily) removed from Bittrex. I can not see them anymore in my balance list. This morning the status was just on maintanance. Now they disappeard completely. Any information on that? 

My balances are still there. Might just be a temporary glitch??

[cryptosamurai]

I got my Zclassic early on and then got the split Zencash. As a long term holder of crypto, I wouldn't buy into one
devs disgruntled comments about leaving a project because they have JPMorgan ties and now a security firm that
he didn't like.

I never put in more than I'm willing to lose but selling now assures a loss. So i'm holding them and leaving them
there to see what happens after this little dust up.

ZenCash Update noon on Friday Jun 9, 2017

ZenCash is still under the threat of a replay attack, and the ZenCash team is getting closer to having a solution to the problem. Here is a brief update to keep everyone in the loop.

The nature of the replay attack threat for ZenCash right now is that a transaction that was completed on Zclassic can be accepted into the mempool, then placed into a block on the ZenCash blockchain. Because of the similar nature of the blockchain and addresses, this would then be broadcast on the Zen blockchain.

There are some ways to mitigate against the attack for anyone who has control of their wallet. The easiest is to set up a second wallet and send the ZenCash to the second wallet. At that point there are no ZenCash UTXO’s that can be replayed with a Zclassic transaction. Another way is to just not do any Zclassic transactions until the issue is fixed on the ZenCash zen node software. Although the replay is vulnerable to older Zclassic transactions as well, so it depends on your transaction history as to how well this would work.

The replay protection was originally put in place in the ZenCash node software by the former lead developer, and was set to expire after 4096 blocks. We don’t know why the choice was made to have the protection expire. Before announcing the vulnerability, the ZenCash former lead developer pushed an update that extended the replay protection checking to forever.

If everyone were running the latest ZenCash node software, there would not be a problem, because all the mining pool operators and solo miners whose software has the ability to accept transactions into the mempool would have software that protected the blockchain. Right now that upgrade is non-mandatory, and older versions of the software are still vulnerable.

The Zen team is discussing the best course of action to take, and we encourage all mining pool operators and solo miners to stay abreast of the latest announcements.

From an organizational standpoint, there is progress. The ZenCash former lead developer is of course welcome to contribute software to the Zen project just like any other developer is welcome to do so. He will not be welcome to be part of the Zen leadership team going forward, though.

There is currently funds accumulating in the ZenCash treasury, at the rate of 8.5% of every block mined. These funds will be used by the Zen leadership to bootstrap the building of a complete development, operations, and communications team.

With the ability to hire and contract talented contributors, Zen will be able to continue working through the goals outlined in the Zen White Paper.

Future ZenCash communications will be based on a new domain name, zensystem.io. Look for us there!

Hello anyone, how to mine this zencash coin ?

Check on page 75 of this thread. I put up a how to.

[silentrunner]

ZENCASH:

Is the software with the the fixes version v.2.0.8-4?
If not when will the latest be released and how do we update?

When will Bittrex wallets be unlocked?

[snowyNNN]

What´s going on with the pools?

Suprnova is off and zenminepro is not finding any blocks, or just unlucky???

Headscratching...

ZENCASH:

It is this version Zen 2.0.8-2

At this url: https://github.com/ZencashOfficial/zen

You can still trade Zen on Bittrex you are not able to deposit or withdraw. I expect Bittrex will unlock wallets when they are confident there is a low chance of a replay attack.

Your link works fine.

This is true... had 1 GTX 1070 on ZEN this whole time... it hasn't hiccuped much at all.

NOW... I will say when I pointed my big 1080 TI rig at it... EWBF zec-miner would eventually throw a fit and reset GPUs... doesn't do this on ZEC.

I think you need to add another port for higher diff please... my 1080 TI rig just eats ZEN shares right now and I think the miner is overloading.

No, 2.0.8-2 is not the latest version.

Click on "3 releases" on github and you will see the newer versions. The readme has not been updated, which is confusing. I assume nodes should be running at least v.2.0.8-4 and wanted to know if there will be a release with the latest 6 commits that should be used.

[rowenta01]

Well lets hope that this Movrcx is a crazy genius then, think I'll just mine ZCL for a while until this thing gets sorted out... on the other hand, you think they'll be more competition between ZCL and ZEN over this  

For me there are two competitions:

One between Zcash and ZEN with partners that will definitely be ethereum and ethereum classic.

Another between Zclassic and Hush. Today, given the madness and instability of Movrex, I prefer Hush, for a community version of zeroknowledge technology!
