Do you think Super Nodes will come at the same time as the latest release or we will see it after?

ZenCash is not associated with Joshua Yabut in any way since June 2017. We cannot speculate or comment on his actions.

I saw this news I don't know the person but It's funny. Still don't know why they feel the need to mention zencash in the article

He was the lead developer for Zen.
"Shortly after announcing his intention of leaving the project, he also announced and made public a method of attacking the Zen blockchain."

Hardfork will occur 3th , possibly 4th week of July.

We will have big change to the consensus division of block rewards, new class of nodes will be introduced - Super nodes.

 => To get smooth start with supernodes - which will go live in q4 of this year, => benefits for staking 500 zen necessary for a Super Node will star after the fork. So better prepare your coins..

Meanwhile bitmain and its ASICs will happily harvest Zencash unfairly....
This is corroiding zenchash nowadays unfortunatly....

[grchina]

Can you tell us some more about the fork specifics,are you guys switching to zhash like most of other equihash coins or you are doing something else?Or you are keeping it a secret so asics manufactors dont have a head start on you?

yup, even after the Asics for SIA, XMR and ETH, the ZEN devs managed to not be ready. Hilarious ...

While I am still mining ZEN and haven't sold any (for now), I have to agree with @CryptoWaffle here that every coin with so-called "ASIC resistance" had ample warning said resistance might not be as assured as once thought, especially after ASICs were released for both Ethash and CryptoNight.

So when I read something like this from the above blog:

Zen 2.0.14 is the update previously planned before the Equihash ASIC announcement and blockchain attack events. The time frame to include any new changes was too short to address these issues.

I think the dev is either lazy or deluded or incompetent.

Of course, the real threat to network security is arguably NiceHash, where it is possible to rent enough hashpower to execute a 51% attack on the smaller coins that use a common algo. Since NiceHash is unlikely to go away any time soon, and their location in Slovenia makes them all but untouchable, prudent coin devs should be figuring out how to mitigate such an attack vector now, rather than waiting for it to happen... Again.

I think that the developers are aware of what is happening and in the very near future they will take some adequate steps to confront the ASIC! For all the time the project existed, there was no reason to doubt the competence of developers!

Just to know.

Some days/weeks shortly after, don't worry
The team needs to make sure the latest release is robust and there is a lot of test behind the scene
And there is the testing period which started yesterday and will end on June 16th

Honestly,I believe that the combination of block chaining technology will bring some wonderful breakthroughs. It brings a different coin experience.

Testing is already part of it, if ASIC is something difficult and not easy, then this is where all the developers will work hard to get maximum results.

not at all. Does being the mod requires to be blind and/or deaf ? Lie to yourself all you want but this coin always had a timing and preparation problems.

You're right, it takes time for developers to solve problems. Every project will encounter a setback, hope zencash problem can be solved as soon as possible.
