In BTCz we trust. Organic slow growth.
He is however right.
I support BTCZ, but NO ONE is saying what happened to that donation!
Just fucking come forward with the truth.
Was it stolen? Is it stored to be used later? Or what?
I'm really annoyed that it's been so quiet about it.
I will start spamming this thread until we get an answer. I will ask on every page what happened.
I fucking hate secrets.

Why is such an important thing to know? The 10 BTC belongs to an investor who has promised it to BTCZ.
So to clear things up, the 10 BTC was not yet given by the investor, is that right?




Question: Is the ZHasher and EWBF the only miner that supports the new algo?

No.  It has been donated already.  It's use is being worked on.

Yes.



Would you guys provide an update on how that would be used to help the project? Hopefully it wont go to an exchange lol and spent on buying time from our wonderful devs to work on new features for the project. Like VOTING for example that could technically also be used for sports betting.

So far yes. Please not the SOL/S is different on the new algo. I think for my 1070 that normally averages 442 SOL/s, I will get like 32 SOL/s, the mining result is the same, the sol/s is practically just a arbitrary number

Please update your wallets and nodes to 1.4.0 ASAP to help us fight timewarp attacks!

Dear community, we’re writing to let you know that BitcoinZ (as well as several other equihash forks) has been the target of timewarp attacks. If you’re interested in learning more about timewarp attacks, there are many great resources online. A fairly thorough overview is available here 2.

As a simple explanation, Bitcoin as well as most forks allow blocks to be created with a timestamp of up to two hours in the future. This timestamp is put into the block’s header by the miner or pool who generates the block. Every node uses the most recent block’s timestamp as a basis for the current time. This is done to ensure the blockchain doesn’t rely fully on NTP servers which would be a centralized dependency.

Unfortunately, since the node who generates a block sets the timestamp, a malicious node has the power to not be honest with the current time, and can generate a block whose timestamp is two hours in the future. While this may not sound like a big deal, it is. This causes the blockchain’s difficulty logic to think no blocks have been mined for two hours and immediately starts decreasing the difficulty.

At the same time, the attacker usually has massive hashpower to ensure they soak up all the low difficulty blocks before everyone else. Once real time catches up with the blockchain time, (two hours later) difficulty skyrockets because to the blockchain, it looks like many blocks have been mined in the same second or few seconds. This causes massive gaps between blocks as miners work to solve overly complex blocks, and honest miners to lose potential mining rewards that end up going to the attacker.

Mitigation of Timewarp Attack

Due to network latencies and time misalignment, we need to have an allowed time window. This window however, doesn’t need to be two hours. The BitcoinZ developers have decreased the window to 30 minutes, minimizing the effect of future timewarp attacks and at the same time continuing to ensure the network is stable and allows for time variations.

We have released a new update to the BitcoinZ node and wallets that we ask everyone to update to as soon as possible to ensure the blockchain rejects these attacks. You can find the latest build of the BitcoinZ node at:

Linux Binaries: https://github.com/btcz/bitcoinz/releases/tag/1.4.0
Windows Wallet: https://github.com/btcz/bitcoinz-wallet/releases/tag/v1.4.0
Windows CLI: https://github.com/btcz/bitcoinz-win/releases/tag/v1.4.0

Continued Monitoring

We thank you for your continued support. Please feel free to reach out to us on Slack, Discord or Telegram if you have any questions. The Zhash fork is still scheduled for block 160,000 and will actually further secure our network since the attacker won’t be able to utilize NiceHash to maximize their profits from these attacks.

We encourage you to spread the word and let everyone know to update nodes and full node wallets. Thanks for your attention!



RENUZIT,

You are the reason sir (or lady , or group, whoever you are) we are all here. You are a genius! I think you nailed the source of the mine-n-dump and if we are getting attacked, it means we are getting attention and that is all good news!

Thank you for the update!

Also it has no future. You forgot to mention the most critical point. Please don't be so one sided.
no future, are you serious, Mindin?
what are you talking about?
Current, there are several exchanges to sell and buy Bitcoin Z.

So what, 100's of shitcoins with no future is traded on several exchanges, When the dust settles only the biggest and the strongest will be left standing. I don't see BTCZ in that category.

BTCz is in the 600s range.

What you don't understand is that if BTCz gets in the top 100 I can retire. Not that I would even sell then anyway.

 If it hits the top 50 I can buy 5 lambos.I will still HODL even then.

 If it hits top 3 I may be as rich as Vitalik. I will buy everyone on this thread a used lambo.

I dont need it to be the top coin.

Or multiple coins and they all succeed. No one knows!

If coins are networks, then each coin is currently a home network in comparison to the size of the internet. What's missing is something to tie them all together and route coins between them.

To me, I believe that coins in the future will be as common as websites.


Funny someone just tweeted comparing domains and coins.

Dont forget ETH was a shitcoin and suddenly it became something.

ZCL was a shitcoin and went up 1000x and dropped 1000x turns out it was a big scam.

There are all kinds of projects.

BTCz is certainly one of the best.

Just encountered that my recent two payments from suprnova didn't arrive. They are not shown in the wallet and they don't have TX# in pool's transaction history. What could be wrong?

For Bitcoin Z team,
Why not send official listing request to Altex exchange?
There are four different trading pairs, BTC, LTC, XMR, and DOGE.
I think this one is good for Bitcoin Z.

It also has a 10 BTC donation that went who knows where and a price dropping faster then the Titanic

Check the old DGB charts. Expect to see it at 012 and don't come crying like a noob when that happens.

I fomo'ed at 046.

BTW. I had a party watching some guy telling he only get 32 sol where i get 300. Please correct that..

After that he will probably expect me to pay for his sugar bons.

They took the money and ran.

That's why I stopped mining this coin. It's been months and no top 5 exhange​

I tested the following config against BitcoinZ's testnet and EWBF is rocking it pretty good. It supports BitcoinZ's flavor of Eh144,5. Just execute the following:

./miner --algo 144_5 --server mine-btcz-na.equipool.1ds.us --user tmWNpX6y9x4xFxg4NDkkajsVB4CxKx9sAgb.renuzit --pass x --port 49951 --pers BitcoinZ

I get about 32 Sol/s @ 140W with my 1070.

You can get EWBF here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ewbfs-cuda-equihash-miner-06-4466962

I put everything the same as you did (expect wallet address) I am running 1080s @ 19sol/s; 19;sol/s; 19 sol/s.
They are now set up at 70% power and they were averaging 515sol/s on btcz on equipools bminer.

Is this how it is supposed to be or I am doing smth wrong?
