[ANN][ZEN] Horizen: Unbounded By Design

[MedaR]

Now total reward pool for node operators is 20% and this is main big change on our system. As you can see we have increased treasury to 10%, we are preparing our own treasury voting system, and the increase of 1.5% is for overcoming voters apathy, we are going to paying voters to vote. Those funds are reward for voters, because we want to provide positive initiatives for joining this ecosystem.
Details of the reward mechanism to voters will be released with more details of actual voting system which is in prototype mode IOHK right now.

Those changes are made as response to increasing popularity of secure nodes, and as result of multiple feedbacks from this system, and from community itself.

The fix is published, so equihash miners who use Z-NOMP should update their applications asap.

As for me, this is a really positive step. I think Zencash is a great product, am very bullish on it's long term potential.

Any chance we'll ever see secure nodes on windows?

As far as I can tell, we will not be introducing this as an official approach, we need to keep the barrier to entry and quality of nodes relatively high, its an intentional choice.

Its all about performance of the network!

I think it actualy is quite smart indeed. Requirement of some technical skills and interest to make it work, rather than common joe just buying enough and setting it up fast for profit short term.

I disagree with you, it is all about security and performance of the network! Windows platform can't compete in this field.
We will give our best to help average Joe to set up his Node. There are plans to simplify this setup process, but for now you can get help via ZenHelp or directly on discord channel #securenodes

Hi MedaR,

Maybe you've been asked this question before, not sure.  I did read back some pages but not all the way back.

Does the ZENCash development team have plans in the future to make alterations of any sort to Equihash Algorithm to MAINTAIN ASIC RESISTANCE?

Nice upgrades for Zencash network. Since now, the network has been more stable, more secured, which are good generally for the whole Zencash project, including its services on Zencash platform.
