The software is there (link in zerocoin.org) but can I mine Zerocoins yet that will be used in the planned alt chain?

[LiteCoinGuy]

no. the Devs will release Zerocoin in 2014.

in my opinion its an interesting concept and the devs are clever guys...

you can see a nice video here:

In the beginning… the idea was to add the Zerocoin protocol to the blockchain making it possible to redeem Bitcoins anonymously. Just as paper currency once gained its value from being redeemable for gold, Zerocoins wold gain their value from being redeemable for Bitcoins. It now seems this model may be changing and Zerocoin may soon coin itself.

The big news is that Zerocoin is now talking about moving forward as it’s own alt-coin, perhaps as early as a few months from now. This is a radical change from the “road ahead”

thank you very much! you may also watch the ongoing discussion of the dev core team members in this thread:

Agree from an engineering point of view; ZeroCoin's requirement for a hard-fork and many lines of new code using complex crypto is a risk Bitcoin shouldn't take. Coin mixing done well has very close to as good privacy, and can be easily fixed if it doesn't work.

[LiteCoinGuy]

thanks for that.

what do you think about that coin? for me its worth to watch compared to most other scam coins. anonymity is a big feature and bitcoin will go to the mainstream (what is ok for me) and Zerocoin could go other ways...

also the zerocoin devs look pretty smart and professional   

do you know which username Matthew D. Green has here in this forum?

[Gyrsur]

let us wait for next spring we have no other choise I guess. very very difficult to say something about the further development of zerocoin. so much dynamic in the market at the moment!

How do you know it will be released in 2014?

Other than zerocoin being released as an altcoin itself, I've read that anoncoin developers are actively developing an implementation. Are any other cryptocurrencies pursuing this, with likely future implementation?

It's not supposed to be released until around May 2014 last I read.

does anyone know if it is still going to be sha256 based? ie that would kick zerocoin into overdrive if everone could fire up their old (by may 2014)
bitcoin rigs

have a KNC Jupiter (oct) 555gh would be just on the verge of gathering dust on its elec use of 75 bucks/month

be nice to get an annoucnement hashing starts midnight such and such date in may..

zoom zoom

*unlikely...i'd imagine it will NOTwork with current sha-256 based asic rigs but imho would probalby be a  very good move on zerocoins part...but what do i know?*
