ZenCash has gone far distance over the last one year. And, the project has made great initiatives to fix bugs and created new mechanisms to fight against potential Replay Attacks. Honestly, ZENcash team have done lots of works, and made it efficiently than I expected. True, I have not seen many projects achieving som many milestones in one year as Zen has done - and the latest rebranding is great too!

Nice change.
The change is a good thing for the recognition. I mean, while members knew about Zencash, they didn't know about the Zen platform and the different products. For most of the people, Zen was just the coin for Zencash. So I do believe it will help to attract interest to the other products created by Horizen, more exposure, better marketing and less confusion.

Hey, I have discovered a secret maybe. The new brand name ends with EN letters Who wanna bet some zen?  Hey! See how I guessed it right  Do I earn something? A Lambo sealed Horizen maybe, with the signature of Rob Viglione & Rolf Versluis on it...  You have earn some "merit" because you are were right about name. Lambo comes later

ZEN is our currency and one of our products on the Horizen platform
Looking at your thread, I guess that new signature codes of Horizen to come. With new ones, will Horizen project have new wave of signature campaign as one of promotional ways? I'm working on new signatures, I'm currently on vacation, and connection is not as good as I expected but it is crucial for testing of signatures. I will inform you here in this thread if we start campaign.

It's also interesting to see ZENCASH (ZEN) rebranded to HORIZEN. Both these two have ZEN in their names.

Keeping zen in the new name which at the same time is so different was a well done rebrand!

What do you guys think of idea ZEN to become multi POW coin.
One POW would be ASIC, one would be GPU frendly. Reward would be evenly distributed between between them.
That way both, ASIC and GPU proponents would be happy, and security of the chain would increase significantly.
Other proposition is to have 3 POW, one for ASIC, GPU and CPU, so that everyone have their opportunity to acquire ZEN.
GPU (and CPU) POW will be closely monitored and if hashrate increases significantly, hard fork to maintain GPU (CPU) mining will be conducted.

And ASIC"s would be made for the GPU friendly version. You know it would. So, what's the point? How is it solved? By using an algorithm like PROG Proof of Work to put ALL HARDWARE (GPU's, ASIC's and FPGA's) ON AN EVEN KEEL. THAT is how everyone will be happy! Period... If PROG Proof of Work is used, what is the point of having an ASIC chain? There is NO POINT in it. Period.

Does Horizen have any plan to turn ASIC resistant?

You actually missed one of the most important milestones in the developmental history of ZenCash (now rebranded and called as Horizen).

Read (below) a quote from this article: https://coinrivet.com/zencash-rebrands-itself-as-horizen-as-it-prepares-for-expansion/More R&D from Horizen:Horizen will continue to research and develop new products such as a ZenVault wallet, blockDag protocols to increase scalability and ASIC mining resistance significantly.

Awesome are the new signatures there because a bounty campaign is coming up?  You see alot of coins doing bounties when just starting up, but I think there is value in doing it with more established projects - particularly when there is a rebrand!

Looks good. I have a question, are they signatures for free supports or are there paid-signature campaign on the way to open in the coming days?

Those are for lower ranked members, I'm on vacation and my connection is not good for testing of more complicated signatures, Hero/Legendary, but they are in preparation. If you like this project or you are supporter you can wear those signatures, but don't expect anything in return. We don't have open campaigns currently, In the future maybe we can organize something, I will inform you here.
