We updated the front page of our website, now it has a list of features that distinguish us from all other cryptos: zold.io

[yegor256]

We just released a bug fix, which makes sure transactions are never lost, even if there are technical issues with nodes: 0.22.8

[yegor256]

I just sent our regular monthly Investor Snapshot to everybody who is in our list of potential investors. If you know someone, who may be interested in our updates, send them my way, I will add them to the mailing list: funds, private investors, etc.

[yegor256]

We just updated our online ledger browser, it shows more accurate data now: /ledger.html

[yegor256]

We fixed a very annoying bug right now, which made it impossible to fund ZLD wallet sometimes, via BTC. Now everything works just fine: https://github.com/zold-io/wts.zold.io/issues/123

Our reserve fund has been doubled today, check the rates here: https://wts.zold.io/rate

A few bug fixes just released in 0.22.9 version: https://github.com/zold-io/zold/releases/tag/0.22.9

[concnepornurage]

 * No general ledger
  * Proof of Work
  * Detached offline payment processing
  * Centralized root wallet
  * Taxes instead of transaction fees
  * Zero-trust anonymous nodes
  * Pre-mined with 2 billion total capacity

It seems to me that this ZOLD project is something remotely reminiscent of Ripple. I'm right? Have there been any comparisons with Ripple?

Project ZOLD looks quite interesting. Very unusual decision. I am glad that in today's crypto market, which is littered with similar and monotonous projects, something really new has appeared!

[RazBOYnick]

Your ZOLD project is awesome. I liked him so much that I made a drawing that you can use to design this theme:

Good luck to you guys!

I became interested in this ZLD coin and would like to run my node. Tell me, does computer performance affect the amount of remuneration received?

Is this some kind of alternative to CPU mining? I understood correctly? Videocard is not needed?

The faster the machine, the better, since it will be able to serve more clients and make more "taxes" and hosting bonuses. More about it here: https://blog.zold.io/2019/01/15/taxes-explained.html

Nope, no video card is needed. Just a simple VPS with a single CPU and 1Gb of RAM will be enough. Check our current network: http://www.zold.io/health.html

We just released version 0.18.18 of the WTS platform. It entirely hides all IP addresses of all users. It also removes them from all logs. Thanks to that, the platform is fully anonymous. On top of that, we will make Zold nodes anonymous too. At the moment they do record user IP addresses in logs and it's possible to track payments made by wallet owners. In the nearest future, we will remove that and all nodes will have no IP information in their logs. This is also one of the features that makes Zold better than many other less anonymous cryptocurrencies. We don't keep IP information inside our databases. The only moment the IP address is known is when a user PUSH-es a wallet. The node knows the address. If the node doesn't log it, it's gone.

Tell me what you think are the ideal characteristics for running your node? To get the maximum profit.

To get your node on top of every other node you will need eight CPUs and 4 Gb of RAM. What's also important is the speed of the Internet connection.

This tax thing might prevent a casual user to hold even a small amount of coins.  I don't know, maybe taxes should be implemented when the network has matured.

Hello Egor! What do you think about rivalry POW and POS? Which algorithm you will use in future?
