Grant Hawkins gives an overview of Lelantus' inner workings and how its approach differs from other leading blockchain privacy mechanisms. We met Grant when he was covering privacy coins on Ivan on Tech's Ultimate Course and he was so intrigued about Lelantus that he offered to do this video that we can post publicly!

For anyone wanting to know a little bit more about Lelantus can watch it here:

Very good video with pedagogical explanations about the differences between ZCoin, Monero, ZCash and others.
ZCoin is the best privacy coin, but we know that since the begining :-).
Good job, thank you.

Yeah Grant has a teaching background so it came across great!

We have completed the Zcoin hardfork to deterministic Znodes successfully! Thank you to our many responsive ecosystem partners for their quick action!

Make sure you're on Zcoin v0.14.0.1 which fixes a minor bug with protx transactions.

Please only download from official sources. We also will not send you any private messages on this (including bots)!

https://github.com/zcoinofficial/zcoin/releases/tag/v0.14.0.1

If you're an existing Znode holder, you can read on how to register your Znode with the new system here:
https://github.com/zcoinofficial/zcoin/wiki/Migrating-your-Legacy-Znodes-to-the-new-Deterministic-Znodes-system

If you have a service hosting your Znodes for you, consult with your Znode provider for instructions on how to do this as instructions may differ from provider to provider.

Ready for the block 278,300 : the one to the next ZNode generation registration ?
The block number 278,299 is 17 mn old...

Edit 4 hours later : there is an issue with the deterministic registration. Developpers will solve it...

HeyGuys, I want to send an invitation to all miners to come and help us to get funding for the upcoming Lelantus's audit. We're currently a couple on Mintpond's pool, mining to the donation address: aKpAwk2G9egKXBFaofpUCvZtqAqkfXeQ8D It feels better than ever to mine with a common purpose and to be able to put your shoulder to the wheel of the project! Try the experience if you can and thanks to whoever donate hashrate already out there! You're awesome!

In case you missed Reuben Yap at #Mainnet2020 with @MessariCrypto giving a presentation on the Zcoin $XZC project, you can catch it here!

This video gives a nice overview of the whole project and is well worth the watch!

Hi, Zcoin is disponible in any DEX? thanks

Hello,
In a DEX, you have to create the pair you want.

Read about Zcoin's strategy on improving its privacy by making Lelantus privacy on by default (with opt-out) and our views on regulatory challenges faced by privacy coins.

We have significantly updated our Lelantus academic paper to contain security proofs for all cryptographic primitives. The revised paper also thoroughly analyzes the security of the payment system and provides formal security proofs showing how the Lelantus protocol satisfies the properties of transaction non-malleability, ledger indistinguishability and balance properties.

As we near the release of deterministic Znodes and LLMQ support that comes together with a Bitcoin core upgrade, we wish to prepare Zcoin users and Znode owners on what to expect. We also go into the reasons as to why this upgrade is important to Zcoin’s infrastructure.

Hi all,
To znode holders: what hosting service do you use for your ZNodes ?
I use allnodes.com since months now, for 5 $ per month. It works correctly but the billing is obscure and I am looking for a less expensive service, even more with the ZCoin price drop : - (...

I've been using 2masternodes for nearly a year. Reliable and simple service so far. Fees are 10% of the returns...(6.75 XZC payouts for a full node). compound and chill Cool
