I don't know much about botnets but is there anything that the developers could do immediately to solve the problem?

Maybe MTP will help. We don't know almost anything about parameters of upcoing MTP hashing algorithm.

Where do you see "many coins with lyra2z algo"? Just few copycat shitcoins.
Do you know any other altcoin on lyra2z algo with comparable high daily emission in $?
They mining Zcoin on cpu instances because hashing speeds on modern cpus are almost comparable with gtx 160 and even gtx 1070 on this hashing algorithm.

If they want to protect the mining community they should release MTP as fast as possible then or is there anything else at this point they could do?

Same problem here.

Version: v0.13.5.7-defe606

8 connections, 15 hors behind, "no block source available"

Last time, with version 0.13.5.6 I purged everything exept wallet.dat and let the complete blockchain load again. If you need to restart your masternodes, this is a work arround to make it work.
Hope / pray for a serious update now.

you need to do reindex
start wallet with -reindex option

Are these difficulties related to updates? Or just a user error? For novices, investment platforms such as Safinus are well suited. Then it will be easier for them to understand everything else

My first transfer of XZC from Binance to desktop core wallet has 40 confirmations but not showing up in the wallet. Have I done something wrong? Is there a forum or something?

Is your desktop wallet fully synced with the chain?

my wallet again with problems, maybe my pc has issues...
Zcoin Core versión v0.13.2.4 (64-bit)
last blocked, synch for 3 hours but not moving since ""7 hours ago""

Had the same. Had to delete the blockchain, download the new version (https://zcoin.io/get-zcoin/) and load the chain from the beginning.

Firo (FIRO)

Zcoin "French Drop" v0.13.5.7

Download Here

Mandatory upgrade with hard fork on block 78500 (roughly 14-15 March 2018). You are highly recommended to spend any unspent Zerocoin mints in your wallet so that they can be moved to the new Zerocoin scheme.

If you are already on13.5.5 or 13.5.6, it is still highly recommended to upgrade to 13.5.7 to avoid nodes getting stuck.

Before anything, backup your wallet.dat (File > Backup Wallet), ideally in a different drive.

When upgrading to this version from the 13.4 branch, it will prompt for a one time reindex (approximately 30-80 minutes). A typical 1 CPU VPS will take about 1 hour 15 minutes. If you are upgrading your Znodes, as long as upgrade is completed within 3 hours, you won't need to issue a znode start command and you won't lose your queue status.

If you are upgrading from 13.5, no reindex is required unless you are stuck on a block on which a reindex is required. Follow this guide on how to reindex.

Changelog

Fixes verification causing block stuck issues
Mandatory upgrade

Safety Precautions
Please note that once you have upgraded to 13.5 branch, your wallet.dat will have a different structure from 13.4 and below and will not be backward compatible.

You are highly recommended to spend any unspent Zerocoin mints in your wallet so that they can be moved to the new Zerocoin scheme.

Maybe They are Shitcoins but again they are much better as rewards are coming for miners even small miners. Sometimes developers are going for money and just ignore the strenght of coins. Let me tell you if there will be no miners to mine how come coins will move transactions maybe Dev will workout with those guys with 20-22Ghs Hashrate. I have 40MH still it shows it will take 50-60 days geez. I can earn double of triple mining other coins.

To me this is the Shitcoin not other coins. I know some people will not like what I say but this is truth and truth hurts.

Again If anybody felt bad. I apologize.

Don't they even have a developer fee coming from every single block? Maybe that is why they haven't paid attention yet to the problem.

Botnets on zcoin becomes bigger and bigger. developers, what are you going to do with that shit?

22GH!!!! it's roughly 13K high end gpus like gtx1070, don't tell bs that this is not a botnet
Almost 99% of network are controlled by MPH. Great decentralizatin. It's sad that zcoin becomes a new one coin that was fckd up by botets

I don't know much about botnets but is there anything that the developers could do immediately to solve the problem?
