Hi developers!

Please explain us what makes the ZHash algorithm unique face to the Equihash-BTG algorithm announced by the BTG team?
https://forum.bitcoingold.org/t/our-new-equihash-equihash-btg/1512

As far as I see both teams will change from Equihash <200,9> parameters to Equihash <144,5> variant, which significantly decreases the threat of ASIC miners.

But why are these 2 names and what is the difference between ZHash / Equihash-BTG? Thanks for your explanation!

--------------------------
BitcoinZ: ASIC resistant coin with unique ZHash algorithm

BTG has changes to their headers as well as a different customization string from ZHash that makes it incompatible. The two projects also have no reason to make them compatible. We helped them get their miner working, so we know it's incompatible for now.

That makes sence Renuzit! Thank you!
Good to know that the BitcoinZ developers are capable of helping for the BTG team Wink

Hi, Is there a release of the Zhasher miner? Nothing on Github

Updated BitcoinZ Windows Wallet - https://github.com/btcz/bitcoinz-wallet

Just updated and immediately got EOS -1 error.

Remember to backup your privatekey.

You would hate your dick if you had nothing else to pour it on.

Introducing ZHash, a new hashing algorithm with the goal of hardening the Equihash protocol to be more ASIC resistant. The ZHash algorithm works by increasing the hardware requirements of Equihash to make development of an ASIC appliance less viable. The goal of ZHash is to put GPU mining on a level playing field with ASICs and FPGAs as far as hashing rates and costs are concerned so that they do not get too much of an advantage.

On block 160,000 around June 15th ~ 16th BitcoinZ will fork to the ZHash algorithm to prevent ASIC miners on the network. Before the fork, all nodes and wallets should be updated to the latest version to help support the new algorithm.

List of things that have been released:

Updated BitcoinZ node - https://github.com/btcz/bitcoinz
Updated BitcoinZ Windows Wallet - https://github.com/btcz/bitcoinz-wallet
Optimized GPU miner for Cuda - https://github.com/btcz/zhasher
Modified z-nomp to support the ZHash algorithm "NickNomp" - https://github.com/NickRHill/zh-nomp

Still needed:

Optimized GPU miner for AMD
Testers

Let us know how you can help!

The ZHash algorithm is based on the Equihash 144,5 variant and was primarily based on the development of @tromp, The BitcoinZ project, and The ASIC Resistance consortium.

I have realized that Maybe Coinbene did it wrong, but don't blame on BitZ we dont know them yet!

In BTCz we trust. Organic slow growth.

32 Satoshi on Tradesatoshi. Looks like we are recovering.

Yeah I'd support a 1-2% developer donation fee. Since I have 3 mining computers that would be 3-6%.

That's the most hillarious calculation I have ever seen. Cheesy

On a serious note: I just took a look at the vieo with the explanations. One thing that caught my eye was the 2.5 GB mem requirement. Does that mean that I cannot mine BTCZ on windows with my 1060 3GB card anymore?

Recalculate then Mr smart-ass.

!!! ?

BarterDEX and BitcoinZ wallet is "conflicting" with each other.

That give those entries in the BitcoinZ Windows wallet.

Tell me that is not true.

I will post some screenshot when the BTCZ wallet has finally loaded and i can get it done. It is somewhat the slowest piece of shit i have seen yet! And the pc goes WRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR while its on. Memory/cpu hog ?

Boong:

Dicks, dicks and more dicks. Keep up the good work and there will only be dicks in the end. He he. Get it ? Dicks in the end..

PS: I tried with an internal transfer on the wallet. It is not broke. It just look like it is.

so we increased the memory consumption and 10x the costs to make an ASIC. You guys just need to just leave the hashing algorithms to the experts.

Do do do. Don't believe the hype.

How much can a memory slot and optional mining software cost ?

You are playing around with a lot of peoples money here. Please don't talk down to them while wasting it.

To be honest. You don't know dickshit about the subject.

The point is I won't - this project has no team and no development made.

I think you are not following the news at all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Zet6Qh7RYE

There is tremendous amount of activity on Discord and Slack. I dont understand why they dont come here on this forum. I guess the young new crypto generation who started after 2017 thinks this forum is a bit for old people lol.

Yup, you're right. I really don't like this website. It's 2018, surely we can come up with a better crypto website by now. And it's true! Most of the devs live on discord.

There are 50 people in Discord posting 1000 or more comments per day and here on Bitcointalk there is little activity. The site is clunky but it is the wikipedia of crypto and the go to place for new investors to get to know the project.

Funny how you are a newbie here!! My 2013 account here was hacked and I lost access to it.
