"Zoin is rebranding to Noir"

[Roels Major]

Noir is in Cryptopia!

This TYPO of the New Name. Should be NOIR with ticker NOR, not NOIN
What is NOIN? Nor-ZOIN?
Ahahahahhaha... 
Seems like PIA did typo because it was so confusing...

[kmetax]

To understand that Noir is the new name of old team? Who of previous Team included? Timugene? kamikaza?  Jackieboy?...NotAWizard as I remeber was removed from the project... earler.I just want to know Who is from the previous team involved?

[NotAWiz4rd]

@kmetax Nearly all of the old team changed to NIX in June. The new team was appointed by the old team and the community. I was in this new team. Since then, we have brought several people back onboard, who have been on the old Zoin team at some point. You will surely remember Pellkopf, and you might also remember flo071.
Noir is now simply the rebrand of Zoin, it had nothing to do with a changed team. The team change happened back when the old team went to NIX.

The website you are linking to is not the official website. The official Website of Zoin was official-zoin.org (which is now pointing to noirofficial.org).

Noir is simply a rebrand of Zoin. No coins are lost, no money is lost.

We will be releasing a rebranded wallet tomorrow, to which you will simply have to update. You'll still have all of your coins - they'll simply be names Noir instead of Zoin from now on.

For more info on how we got to this rebrand, please read this: https://noirofficial.org/zoin-becomes-noir/

Zoin is now officially dead? Will there be a new thread about Noir in this forum? Will there be a roadmap or a whitepaper about the future developement plans of the devs?

Thanks Wizard, for the detailed info.
Latest uncertainty really pulled Zoin back, hope only direction we will go is upward, as Zoin was almost a ready product, before NIX snapshot.
All that hard work shouldn`t be lost, as we will have our share of privacy coins market.

@Notawiz4rd Thanks. at the same day I was banned in discord was in telegram.
Wallet Not synchronize . Any node list?

Ok here is the Zoin report for September : https://zoinofficial.io/zoin-report-september-2018-2/

I will post here just monthly reports and announcement, no time reading insults or trolling ;-) Thank you

Dear True Zoin Community

Firstly we like to inform you that Zoin is not re-branding as impersonating websites are claiming. Zoin is here since 2016 and will stay forever.


Important milestones from September and new members announcement:

14. September 2018 Zhao Kwok (Hong Kong) joined our team as position Core Developer, Java, Cyber Security Engineer. Zoin Team released  new secure wallets that contains all the security features that offer top coins on the market. Thank you to Zhao and his hard and dedicated work for the Zoin Team, he released the new secure core wallets. This was a most important step of our roadmap to bring you a product that you can trust and anyone can verify. https://github.com/zoinofficial/Zoin/releases/tag/v0.13.4.1

More about wallet here: https://zoinofficial.io/zoin-wallet-update-v0-13-4-1/

25. September 2018 joined the team was volunteer Linda Sunshine (Australia) for position Media, Marketing helping us with administrative agenda.


Developer Funds were still not returned, by consensus of all our team members we decided if that funds will be returned (approximately 225 000 Zoin) we will burn them in Blockchain forever to reduce available supply. These developer funds were stolen from the official team announced on 14 of JUN 2018 https://zoinofficial.io/meet-the-candidates/ at the moment stolen developers funds are in the possession of NotAWiz4rd. He is a scammer that kicked off all initial member ZOIN TEAM.


Progress Report:  We would like to inform you, that we already fulfilled 2 important point's of our road map.

1.) Registered legal entity of Zoin 06 of July 2018 in Caen, France

2.) Secure wallet release standard v0.13.4.1 - 26.September 2018


Zoin will continue development by the decentralised way which  means we don't want to own the developers funds or owner rewards.

People working for Zoin are volunteers, they are working for free and investing their time developing Zoin by the decentralised way. We decided that every team member will provide the BTC and Zoin address, where the people can donate their hard dedicated work for Zoin individually.

TECHNET Donation box will be purely for buying technology for ZOIN network (domains, nodes, infrastructure, etc), how the funds were spent will be in every monthly report.

We are still looking for people that can fill our team.

Zoin team never released version 0.13.2.0 it should contain a malicious code or code tampering, last version released by the Zoin team was in May 2018 - 0.13.1.6 and latest secure version 0.13.4.1 6 days ago. We started legal steps against people cyber squatting Zoin official, releasing Zoin products without written approval of the Zoin legal entity. Be very careful 3 scammers trying to push some Noir coin scam, no one knows who they are, no real entity, fake twitter profiles made a few days ago, as i mentioned before they've stolen developers funds from the team announced on the  14th of JUN 2018.

wtf is this? Zoin has rebranded to Noir..

[bunnywilly]

@capoboss
Don't worry this is the scammers account that pretend to be the official Zoin.

Zoin has rebranded to Noir.
It's very easy to check. Go to Cryptopia and you will see that Zoin does not exsist anymore, instead Noir is traded there.

Cryptopia has also sent an email to all the users to inform them about the rebrand.

Be always careful about scammers like them.
Joel Yaquine, Linda Sunshine and Erik are all scammers that are trying to confuse newcomers and steal their money.

[Lind]

Which ones are biggest changes of the project with the recent rebranding?
How about the changes in development plans of the project?
Someone, please give me a  bit more clarification about these issues.

Probably zerocoin Fix.

[WolfIsaac]

Yes, the biggest achievement is the zerocoin fix.

Please be aware of scammers, I still see that they are trying to misleading people and take advantage of them.

Zoin has rebranded to Noir. All the exchanges support Noir.
Cryptopia has already complete the update and next week Coinroom and Coinexchange will follow.

Noir wallet version 1.0.0.1 is out!

This is a mandatory update. Zerocoin and Masternodes fixed.

First backup your wallet.dat and DELETE YOUR CURRENT CHAINFILES (this is MANDATORY ). There is a bootstrap available on github to speed up the sync.

To get your noirnodes working the .config file changed a little:
it is now
nnode=1
nnodeprivkey=xxxxxxxx

Download here or from the site:

https://github.com/noirofficial/noir/releases/tag/v1.0.0.1

http://noirofficial.org/

Let's go NOIR!

[jimbocryptso]

This situation with Zoin and Noir is not as simple as it seams.

I don't know what will happen, but the data looks interesting.

As of the time of writing this post:

Zoin:
Block Height: 358,378
Hashrate: 0.675 MH/s
# of Masternodes: 226 (almost half of them with NEW_START_REQUIRED status probably closer to 150 active nodes)
Bid / Ask on Cryptobridge (most active market for Zoin): 0.00000812 / 0.00001238

Noir:
Block Height: 358,237
Hashrate: 0.607 MH/s
# of Masternodes: 40 (9 of them in NEW_START_REQUIRED status, 31 active nodes)
Bid / Ask on Cryptopia (most active market for Noir): 0.00000689 / 0.00000741

Everyone is expecting the Zoin chain to die off, but as of right now it looks like that might not happen.

1. The Zoin chain currently has a higher hash rate than the Noir chain (apparently because of a large Chinese mining pool has not switched over to the Noir chain and is still mining Zoin).

2. The Zoin chain has more active masternodes than the Noir chain (probably because the chain split just happened today and most people haven't switched over yet).

3. The price of Zoin is currently higher than the price of Noir on their respective markets (don't know why this is the case).

I don't know the whole history of this re-branding issue and I'm honestly very confused reading some of the messages on this thread.

As a Zoin/Noir holder, here are some things that you should know.

1. This is not really a "re-brand" or a "conversion" from Zoin to Noir. It's a hard fork with 2 separate coins now operating on their own blockchains. If you held Zoin before the chain split, then you are now holding both Zoin and Noir. As far as I know, the chain split occurred around block 358,000 and the Zoin and Noir wallets are now independent from each and operate on separate chains.

2. I think it's possible (unlikely but still possible) that the Zoin chain could survive. It will depend on whether this big Chinese mining pool keeps mining it and whether the remaining 2 exchanges go through with the de-listing or not.

3. If you buy Zoin on Cryptobridge or Coinexchange right now, then you will not get Noir, and there is a strong possibility that the Zoin you bought will soon be worth $0.

4. It should be possible to sell your Zoin on Cryptobridge or Coinexchange right now and still keep your Noir. If you think the Zoin chain is going to die off and become worthless, then you may want to do this ASAP. I'm not familiar with either of theses 2 exchanges so proceed at your own risk obviously.
