yes a spontaneous fork was found on block 86156 for those who didn't update from wallet-version 0.13.5.7 to latest 0.13.5.8
no big deal
if someone still have problems with syncing wallet....

look at the steps in here

All users should have wallet version v0.13.5.7 because that was mandatory update, this latest v0.13.5.8 is optional but recomended.
So if you are curently using verions older than v0.13.5.7 just go for the latest one available. Wink

Bitmain Releases a New ASIC Miner for the Equihash Algorithm:

https://themerkle.com/bitmain-releases-a-new-asic-miner-for-the-equihash-algorithm/

"Among the currencies using the Equihash algorithm are Bitcoin Gold, Zcash, Komodo, ZClassic, ZenCash, and a few others."

When MTP launches, Zcoin will be one of the few remaining POW cryptocurrencies to be ASIC-resistant.

Can Anyone explain to me how can f2pool have such luck with just ~50% of the network hash-rate? something smells fishy here(?)...

Does anyone have any issues with their masternode? It seems like ZCoin is getting more attention on the main stream.

The question is what type of hardware stands behind such huge hashing power...

That's correct , guy. I can not understand why the huge hashing power are appearing on mining zcoin.
Who has a bunches of zcoin miners like this. This is a big issue for me to buy zcoins now and it looks ridiculous .

It could be because there are too many miners involved in mining there, so the level of difficulty increases, so it is very difficult to add one zcoin only.

it is another pool attacking,proxy pool hash to MPH,and drop the nonce when a new block been found,so the MPH pool is very unlucky, everyone loss profit and leave, the attacker pool will earn more

Is there a way for MPH pool to permanently resolve this stuff?
It seems they are passive on this matter from the beginning so either they cannot do anything or they just don't care enough. Huh

Everytime I start to mine this coin, pool gets unlucky AF! Getting close to 900% of expected shares on MPH on the next block! urghhhhh (At that point, the pool reportings may be having troubles though)

is this the block-reduction attack?

It is up on you , because if you believe so much in the cryptocurrency there's no way to sell it because the price is falling down

[ANN] zFastminer-v2.3.2 Most Powerful And Profitable Zcoin xzc Miner On Poolside For NVIDIA Pascal GPUs
***** Optimized For MiningPoolHub - Fork from tpruvot ccminer 2.2.5 *****

Update May 4th: Updated Version Release: zFastminer-v2.3.2

Changelog:

Fixed Stratum connection Bug.
Added support for IP addresses as URL- please choose the best IP for you with the lowest ping.
Attempt to reduce power spikes.
Mining Rigs with less then 2 GPU's not Supported.
Max GPU's support increased to 19 per Rig.
'--hide-diff' is ON by default to reduce CPU usage.
Small Reduction of the Intensity for better stability.
Compiled with Cuda 9.2

Regarding power spikes:
We have looked about this issue with ccminer and found out that some users found solution by using '-plimit' option to limit the max power usage of the GPU's(in addition to MSI afterburner), you can set values per GPU like this:

Code:

zFastminer-v232 -a lyra2z -o stratum+tcp://asia.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20581 -u USERNAME.NewWORKERNAME -p x -q -plimit 60,60,60,60,60,60,60,60

This sets 60% power limit for each GPU on a rig with 8 GPU's, try this option with your preferred power percentage

Regarding MPH ongoing maintenance and stratum connection issues:
We enabled using IP address as URL and now you can choose the best IP address with the lowest ping for you and you shouldn't have connection problem anymore.
For example:

Code:

zFastminer-v232 -a lyra2z -o stratum+tcp://139.162.132.70:20581 -u USERNAME.NewWORKERNAME -p x -q

List of IP addresses:
https://check-host.net/check-dns?host=europe.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com

How to Test Ping?:
Open command prompt/PowerShell and type:

Code:

ping us-east.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com

And you will see something like that:

Code:

Pinging us-east.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com [139.162.132.70] with 32 bytes of data:

Keep trying different IP's or URL's MPH URL's or choose from this list and test the ping:
https://check-host.net/check-dns?host=europe.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com

us-east.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com
europe.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com
asia.lyra2z-hub.miningpoolhub.com
Until you find best IP address with the lowest ping and then use it in your .bat file.

Zcoin seems to soon reach the $ 100 price, I'm sure soon happens this year, there is no doubt to hold Xzc in a long time because I'm sure Xzc can be like NEO.

Yes, there will be Algo change like they said many times, you can read about it in previous posts and watch some official videos on YouTube channel.
