please write on the poloniex trollbox about the Zcoin, to increase value

I have sold some zcash at 50 and 30 bitcoin.
ZCOIN will soon reach those price. Same tech, very looooow price now.

go sleep, you are drunk
I am pretty drunk right now. But not sleepy yet.

The market cap of 1m seems tiny considering the interest around this coin? A bitcoin killer?

Well the zcash launch was a shit show. Pool outages and trade manipulation galore. Should have seen that coming. Tried to cash out ~0.006 ZEC to Polo and it never came. Price has plummeted 100x since. Not that the price is realistic anyway at 3000BTC/1ZEC down to 30BTC/1ZEC
Going to stay over here now

With our sister coin trading at a few million dollars each, it should be a good day for us: http://imgur.com/a/Sf5Eu
I have seen that number as high as 5000btc per ZEC, for orders up to .5BTC
Supernova has a couple hundred thousand hashes per second and the frontend is almost always down, so there is very very little supply in the wild.

Yeah it works with Suprnova 
Thanks : compilation ended, test in progress, but it seems slower than the OCMiner... October 28, 2016, 12:01:27 PM

Thank you guys for your replies : my CPUs are very low and I'm affraid that with the grow of the difficulty they become obsoletes.
I will try Optiminer : is it working with SuprNova ?

https://github.com/zcoinofficial/zcoin/wiki/Roadmap
Note that English isn't Poramin's first language and the roadmap is still a work in progress (only a few minutes old)
This is getting me excited:
Implement MTP: Merkle-tree based Proof-of-Work
Paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1606.03588v1.pdf
We believe MTP is the way to prevent botnets from mining while allowing normal legitimate CPUs to perform proof of work. On the verification end, it will take less time to process compared with finding proof. It is better than Equihash in term of speed following the below table, excerpt from https://www.usenix.org/system/files/conference/usenixsecurity16/sec16_paper_biryukov.pdf
https://i.imgur.com/wIOdIF1.png
Update Code Base to Bitcoin Core Latest Version 1 - 2 months
Implementing TOR and i2p on wallet clients 1 - 2 months
Further optimization of Zerocoin performance 2 - 4 months
Currently, our implementation doesn't do parallel verification on spending Zerocoin transaction. Once implemented, Zerocoin spend transactionss can be sped fast and there can be more than one spending tx per block.
Implementing trustless setup in Zerocoin Protocol 6 - 12 months
Based on the academic paper, it may be possible to implement the Zerocoin protocol without a trusted setup phase. We will do further research into this, and will implement it, if it is possible.

Hi all,
2 questions please about ZCoin mining :
1) Is there others optimized miners than the CPUMiner from OCMiner (SuprNova) ? Windows ? Ubuntu ?
2) Is there some project(s) of GPUs Miners ? Windows ? Ubuntu ? AMD ? NVidia ?
Thank you :-)
You can try this one which has slight improvements to it:2 questions please about ZCoin mining :

No GPUminers.
I've also spoke to the core devs on this and they confirm that they're working on MTP algorithm.

With this zcoin,zcash and zhashrate the best is zhashrate.Price is other way.Roger Ver invest in zhashrate.
wut?
