[ANN] [BTCP] BitcoinPrivate: A Truly Private Bitcoin [Equihash]

[Haze The Hobo]

All blockexplorer are down  

Everything is down right now, for how long remains mysterious... good practices for "A Truly Private Bitcoin"... no testnet, nothing, just everything down, really dubious again...

You can use the tool above when something (ie mainnet) comes up, test (to their seed node which is commented in the code, and could change):

node tx.js BTCP testconnect dnsseed.btcprivate.org

Again one goof more to spread FUD. There is testnet and mainnet will be launched at 2.3.2018. There are also many pools with testnet implementation and have shown support for the BTCP mainnet. And everything is not really down, I am currently mining ZCL and my daemon is showing block height 272998.

Block height | 272998
Network solution rate | 129792893 Sol/s
Connections | 47

Since starting this node 1 days, 0 hours, 54 minutes, 59 seconds ago:
- You have validated 100782 transactions!

Are you part of the team?

Whether it is yes or no, could you please provide some full nodes addresses?

Since your are mining (mining what exactly?) you must run/access full nodes unless you are saying bulls, since it's not coherent with your statement of mainnet being launched on 2nd of March

Most likely you will not answer

There it reads I AM MINING ZCL. Maybe you should wipe the jizz off your glasses mate.
I have also tested suprnova BTCP testnet and it's working fine. I was referring to "everything is down" comment, as everything is not down (ZCL and BTC both working normally).
BTCP mainnet will be up at 2nd of march and before that no one can mine BTCP.

Suprnova BTCP testnet working just fine.

You can keep modifying your answer as you like every 2mn...

Again: are you part of the team?

What you are showing is just that you are mining on a supposed testnet on suprnova, I have not a lot of time to play with this stuff but I tried to connect to testnet (following the BTCP links, all of them sending you to another one, and finally tried what is in the code for testnet), unsuccessfully for now... including connecting to supposed suprnova testnet full node

Could you please provide a working testnet address:port?

Anyway, if I am wrong about testnet, then OK, but what looks to be happening right now is still not a good an fair way to do a fork for a project that claims transparency

No I am not part of ZCL or BTCP team. I am just a random miner who has been backing up this project.
Whitepaper https://btcprivate.org/whitepaper.pdf
Suprnova testnet btcp.suprnova.cc:6822

I don't think BTCP devs lied about anything. They said testnet is available and fork will occur + mainnet will be launched at approx 2 days after the snapshot.

Thanks for the clarification, that is what made initial sense to me but was just seeking some clarification. The only other fork I bothered with was bitcoin cash. From the forks I’ve seen, the snapshot & fork block number have been pre determined and simultaneous, I assumed that was necessary prior to BTCP. Not that I have any issue with the way this is being rolled out. There’s also apparently a bit of an underlying knowledge gap on the specifics of forks on my part hence the uncertainty, which again I appreciate you clarifying.

As the snapshot has now occurred, does that mean I can now move my BTC from the address that was holding the BTC during the snapshot (with bitcoin core full node, while cold storing the priv key from said address to import to BTCP when necessary) Or, do I have to wait the dev stated “couple of days” before moving my BTC from the snapshot address?

Also, any clues as to when mining starts, I see suprnova are running a testnet pool which is a good sign, will be pointing my rig there so a more specific mining start time would be useful.

If he said that, I'm guessing he meant a couple of days until you can redeem your BTCP using your keys. The whole point of a snapshot is to see how many coins are in each address at a point in time, so I don't know why you wouldn't be able to move your BTC now.

OK, see my update above, testnet seems to exist (one node is btcp.suprnova.cc:17933), and the white paper also

Let's see what happens now, but again it looks strange

Finally holders of ZCL has been slaughters due to fake hype and comparison it with BTC. I don't like the current distribution structure of this airdrop coin it has been failed before it's launch. So many people lost their money because of this nonsense distribution system.

the price went down super fast. i am happy that i sold enough zcl to now have free BTCP and ZCL in my wallets....

O what's this? Yet another complete shitshow in crypto ?? Don't say!

[jetbrain]

Because you can't do anything before they open mainnet, you can prepare your transactions but there is just no place where to send them

So until people get access to the mainnet full nodes, nothing can be done

That's what I am criticizing above, testnet should just be followed by mainnet, but since they are merging the utxo of both different chains, probably they need some time to do it, apparently they did not make it clear (as well as their still missing white paper on their web site) since nobody understands what is going on

What happened to the network today? It looks like ZCL is missing a tooth.

[Warsaar]

So, the spork is possible.

Somebody please make LTCP with ZCL as a donor.

[xasterix]

Nothing was happened.
Just scam. nothing else.

[ETP_mining_pool]

Paper wallet available:
http://wallet.btcprivate.pro/

You can use it to mine on our pool:
http://btcprivate.pro/


please test configuration and lets start mine together.


Attention! You must use Wallet that start with letter "b".

[ZACKDCRISTO]

Bittrex did a bad move today, I've lost a lot of btc, even the wallet is offline, I think it's time to move to another exchange

[Piston Honda]

OH LOOK ANOTHER BTC SHITCOIN EDITION.

garbage

[gembitz]

So, the spork is possible.

ZCL will be like ETC :-D oooh weee

Can you really be that ignorant? It is not the ZCL wallet that cannot handle the pressure. It's the exchanges wallet and their infrastructure behind that (databases and backend i.e.). Exchange wallets confirm withdraws and deposits differently than normal wallet to wallet transfer.. This issue has nothing to do with the coin infrastructure or private wallet.

Yeah, they have few hundred coins with more volume who are working without problem
Conspiracy against Zclassic ahah you are right

You really are one ignorant human being. Please go and educate yourself before posting.
If you cannot understand what you read, well that is your problem. ZCL is not the first and not the last coin that will have EXCHANGE end issues. This is similar scenario to what happened with LTC and Doge markets in Cryptopia. I'll just leave it here, tired of people who cannot use their brains.

Everything you need to know about these technical issues can be found here:

For you, genius :
https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001271272

Additional technical notes:

The upstream project Zcash does not have these wallet issues as we worked closely with their team to implement the following changes:

Zcash GitHub issue 2446 - Add field indicating coinbase tx in output of listunspent

Zcash GitHub issue 2448 - Add an RPC function or flag to create a shielding transaction that only contains coinbase

The Zclassic codebase is behind the upstream Zcash codebase so it does not have these changes implemented. We have requested that the Zclassic team test and implement these changes ASAP.

Tell me it's infrastructures behind Bittrex or Cryptopia now.

[brooklynite1]

The lack of activity in this thread is stunning. Is everyone on Discord or something?

[brooklynite1]

The price on Bittrex is amazing. It goes to show how Bittrex trades are fake bots. How the hell would buy at 3x the price of all other exchanges.

But I personally think the sell of on ZCL had no reason and the price could go back up to at least $80.

BTCP when starts trading could start at $200. Will see where it goes from there but if you ask me its at least worth as much as half of BCH or $600 so if starts trading at $200 it could run up after that.

when i can mine BTCP?
