Actually, when you set up a node your coins are not located on the node, they are safely stored in your wallet in your transparent address, but you cannot move them because your node will not be rewarded. Those coins are staked. It is similar to staking POS coins but it is completely different technology.

We are excited to announce that ZEN is now available on Coinvest.
ZEN is available in the following pairs: BTC, ETH, GUSD, and COIN at a flat fee of $0.99 (trades and withdrawals).

Any chance of implementing progpow?

Any chance of implementing progpow?

BlockDAG PoW system for mining on the main chain as we have announced many times, is the only real solution to decentralize mining.

 IOHK is still working on the BlockDAG study, it is part of the Horizen Road Map. Check Q4.
The BlockDAG implementation will be very complex and complete rewrite of our code so it's a huge project.
It will help solving the problem of centralization of hashing power around mining pools and you will be also able to solo mine.

..... Latin American nationals are the most promising targets of privacy coins. DASH is a good example, with amazing growth in the continent, in particular Venezuela. I wish that Horizon team would already have solid plans to expand the coin to Venezuelans in order to help them improve their financial income.

It would be wonderful to see Horizen start expanding across the earth as more and more merchants in many many countries start accepting Horizen for selling everything from toothpaste to automobiles.

Go Horizen !!!

Sincerely,  GlobalProtection

Look at the graph on this page that shows the adoption of crypto by merchants in Latin America.

Crypto Payments Ready to Develop in Latin America


Crypto adoption in Latin America has reached an all-time high with 8,000 transactions logged since the start of 2019. While much of the world is still battling its way through a long crypto winter, South American traders appear committed to the cryptocurrency cause. Digital tokens are seen as the most effective way out of economic and political turmoil. The Venezuelan financial crisis and international sanctions have resulted in citizens abandoning the bolivar in favor of other currencies. However, it seems that rather than turn to foreign currencies, thousands are instead choosing cryptocurrencies. CoinDance stats also show trading has shot up in neighboring Columbia since the start of the year.

Meanwhile, in Argentina, CoinDance’s LocalBitcoin data reveals that trading volumes have hit 2019 high. With a volume of over 8.5 million, it is the second highest weekly trading volume ever. As per an Argentinean cryptocurrency expert speaking to news outlet La Verda, some 20,000 people in the country currently own cryptocurrencies. If true, this means that a relatively small group of citizens are doing the majority of the country’s trading. Can Latin America benefit from a new monetary system that integrates Crypto payments seamlessly?

The popularity of Cryptocurrencies in Latin America presents an opportunity to build crypto payment solutions. Therefore, the environment is ripe for visionaries to develop a new monetary system.

There is, in fact, a project seeking to build a blockchain-based monetary system that can no doubt challenge the traditional system....
