Topic: [ANN] ZERO - fork of Zcash with harder mining params - page 40. (Read 131845 times)

Is there any ETA for the new website? I am very interested in taking a look and sharing it on twitter if it's a good one. Not asking for a precise date, just roughly.

Looking for ZERO related content, besides the obvious, like the Announcement. Or links from various popular sites, like coinmarketcap.

Will find and organize various snippets that I posted about the Equihash parameters.

Aware of the recent outside blog.

There was a bunch of proposals for icons, ideas about branding, etc.

Comparisons with Zcash, Zclassic

Post links or verbiage, or DM them to me.  Not looking for one-liners.

I actually enjoy reading lokko posts. He reminds me of one very positive MUE holder Abikky or something who was constantly upbeat by the time when MUE could barely hold $20k marketcap, which believe it or not was less than an year ago...

lol, you don't even have an active dev.

lokko, you sound like an absolute bagholder.

People keep asking about getting listed on more exchanges.

Now, we cannot control what the top tier ones do, but you've seen in the thread that we are trying for Yobit and suggest voting on C-CEX. com
Also, working our way towards minimum requirements for HitBTC.

There is a nice diagram of active nodes for Zcash https://www.coinexchange.io/network/peers/ZEC
Would be cool to get listed on Coinexchange.io and get a diagram of our own

Anyone has first-hand experiences with getting listed, that you'd like to share, in the thread or via a PM?

Hi, I just mine with 1 8gb RX480 at suprnova, but I am going to add some more gpus soon.

Would like to update the listing of working mining pools in the announcement, besides the standard suprnova.cc
Kindly report which alternative pool(s) you've been using recently, and with what success rate.

Again, of course a website is important!
But more importantly, a reasonable marketplace,
cryptopia is not one of them for me
where prices are constantly being manipulated downwards.

Therefore we need at least 2 -3 exchanges to fight this problem.

You should also be able to sell or exchange coin on shapeshift. io

i think you wrong buddy.... been making good trades with them almost 4 years, not a busy as the mainstream but good profit margins ...after all without them.... i would have never have found this forum or bought this coin.

if you believe in the coin..buy it..... lol complaining the coin is to cheap ...what next

thats some great news.
looking forward to the new page

Bought some cheap Zero, waiting for the future development and promotion campaign for this good coin. We need to attract more investors attention to this great project.

We all are going to have lot of fun except those who sell their coin too cheaply. Zero is going to grow up and we all will be just fine..

Not Zcoin, but Zcash to more exact. Zcoin and Zcash are different algos. But yes, Zero will grow to be better than Zcash over time.

Some inside source told me this is the next zcoin

A further clarification:
The way this particular wallet, written in Swing/Java works is by talking to a running Zero node via JSON-RPC. It does NOT hold or have access to the keys, only loads status for display and issues commands for transactions, but no crypto at any point. If you already have a running Zero node, but don't feel like working through the steps of the Java compilation, I can post the JAR built back in April.

As far as getting the Zero node up and running, you have three options: Native Linux, Windows with a Linux VM, Native Windows executables.

The VM solution is identical to the Native Linux, only you talk to Linux running inside Windows. I default to VMware with Ubuntu 16.04, just because it's a combo I've used before. If you are not up on Linux setup and compilation, prepare for a steep learning curve. And possibly a rewarding career.
 
The Native Windows solution(s) have not been "blessed". The one published by @1towia was based on an obsolete codebase, before a critical fix was put in. He has not been back since May, to rebuild the current code, based on Zcash 1.0.8-1, and to document the process, so it can be replicated by at least one more competent developer.

@crypto-help, it is wonderful that you have a blog dedicated to Zero, and I totally enjoyed reading the comparison between Zcash and various derivatives. But it seems that the .exe files you are offering in the download are from those old builds, and I advise against using them.

I will not have a chance to work through the Windows build process, to nail down the environment setup and dependencies, test the builds, and document and publish the whole deal. Feels to me like 10-20 hours of focused dev work. I implore other competent developers on the project to step up and get it done. The whole community would love you forever and name their firstborn after you.

ZERO Goin UP again Today

I can see why this is a major task, still would be very welcome.
If its the testing on multi nvidia rig thats holding you up, I would be willing to test.

I am also follwing here, so no need to cross-post everything ;-)

The high CPU utilization is a problem with OpenCL implementation of Nvidia. It seems Nvidia does not *want* to fix this, maybe to push CUDA. Here is someone complaining about the issue in 2013:http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=72805

So, to fix this I will need to rewrite the kernel in CUDA which is a big change to the miner, essentially like rewriting half of the miner from scratch. While this is on my TODO list, it probably will not happen soon, sorry. I currently also only have a single nvidia card which means I cannot test any multi-card setup.

We will keep this community informed over the next weeks.
