Any chance we'll ever see secure nodes on windows?
As far as I can tell, we will not be introducing this as an official approach, we need to keep the barrier to entry and quality of nodes relatively high, its an intentional choice.

Its all about performance of the network! Cool

Can someone please point me out towards resource explaining these new super nodes, when they will be available, detailed reward structure etc.

I see 20% of the block will go to the node operator which means much lower reward for the miners, right.

I see it will require 500 Zen which is 12x more compared to the standard node. Yet, the reward will be 6x higher. So why would anyone set up super node as opposed to running bunch of small, standard nodes?

What do I miss here?
Here you can read more about:
https://zencash.com/assets/files/Zen-Application-Platform-Whitepaper.pdf

Node operators will now receive 20% of the block rewards, which is an increase from the 3.5% previously. This 20% will be evenly split between secure nodes and super nodes. Treasury will receive 10% of block rewards, which is an increase from 8.5% previously, and miners will receive 70% of block rewards, which is a change from 88% previously.



Yes miners will get less,but as you can see this news is accepted very well, so I think this can be only positive change.



Why Super Nodes?
Probably because this can be less expensive, and easier for setup instead of setting up 10 nodes (you must have 10 different dedicated servers). Now you will ask me, why Secure Node? Because this is very accessible to average holder and with small investment you can join and this is not the case with other projects.



I see, thank you for your explanation, I might dip a toe into one node and see how it goes from there.

I have encountered the problem with a Zencash node: it was launched and configured, all transactions have been registered properly, but there have been no receipts in a wallet. Wallet logs provide the following information
 

As I can see, there is a great amount of lines, indicating Zencash wallet receipts, but coins are not transferred as required, moreover, their number decreases (it is a result of node payment actualization, as I tend to think)

What are the possible reasons for such problem?
I will return with more information from developers, just made an ZenHelp request for you. Wink

Hello,

I'm part of the Steemit community, and I want to promote ZenCash to users on that platform.

I believe ZenCash is a good solution to a lot of problems. We could say the usage of the zk-snarks algo motivates me to support this project ! I'm not an early adopter though (too bad haha). So why not be an early promoter !

I'm the founder of Steem Messenger, a recent application based on the Steem blockchain to communicate with Steem users with client sided authority/encryption. As I'm part of the "Private" thing myself, promoting ZenCash is for me a goal to achieve.

I want to talk about ZenCash with the Steem community, promote your content, get people to adopt it. Given the right budget, I can make quite a good audience on there. I've been blogging on Steem since a year now (and it's only about 2 years old).

If you have any question, you can find me :

on discord @Kingswisdom#7650
on Steemit steemit.com/@kingswisdom
on github github.com/kingswisdom
on Twitter twitter.com/@_kingswisdom

Please join Zen Discord channel and look for Rosario akka @zench1ck#1523 , discord invitation you can find in my signature.

Quick updates

New White Paper + 24/7 Help + Secure Nodes

We have exciting news! We recently announced significant integrations, collaborations, and roadmap developments. Check out everything that's happening, and to stay up to date on future news by joining us on our next biweekly call, April 18th at 1PM UTC-4.

We've introduced the first 24/7 user support system in the cryptocurrency industry. You can create a free account and submit claims to our knowledgeable and dedicated team members. Real people will help you with technical issues, bugs, feature requests, Secure Node payment issues, and more. You can even track your claim and have access to our digital knowledge base that includes user manuals, video tutorials, and documentation of common requests. Check out our blog for more details about this incredible new development.

ZenCash is now integrated into the XEEDA mobile hardware wallet and soon you'll have secure mobile access. This wallet is a great blend of usability and security. It lets you access your ZenCash through your smartphone without compromising safety of your funds. Pre-orders start in May! Find out more information on our blog.

It's a bird... it's a plane... it's SUPER NODES! The growth of our Secure Nodes network is phenomenal. We're continuing to make our system more censorship resistant and decentralized by creating a tiered node system and implementing sidechaining. We're starting with Super Nodes and ZenGrid.

Super Nodes are a new class of nodes that will utilize sidechains. The architecture technique sets the stage for platform development, and allows dApps on the ZenCash blockchain. ZenGrid allows for more than just transactions. We have a lot of computational capacity, and encourage operators to prosper by renting out their processing capability. To accommodate new features we've adjusted the block reward rates which can be found here.
As we previously announced project specific white papers are being released. You can now find the new Zen Application Platform: Tiered Node System and Sidechains to Decentralize the Network white paper on zencash.com. Learn everything you need to know about Super Nodes in the white paper here.

Arizen v1.1.5 (https://github.com/ZencashOfficial/arizen/releases/tag/v1.1.5?utm_source=ZenCash+Updates&utm_campaign=0709cd7c94-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_04_13&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_d60b1a11f5-0709cd7c94-105922811) is released and the user manual is available too. The new version includes improved UX and use of ZenHide supporting domain fronting. Adding Z tx support is planned for Secure Node operators only, and is scheduled for v1.1.6. UI/UX is also in progress. The Arizen wallet now has its own roadmap for 2018 on Github. Check it out!

Hi, help me plz with my problem. I can't start swing wallet  for Windows 0.80.5 on Windows 10. See log file plz. What's wrong?




I have sent this log to ZenHelp developers will respond soon.

btw I have same wallet, same system, and so far i had no problems.

May be it's a java problems?



At first start the GUI wallet tries to download the Zen proving key (900 MB). The key file is:

https://zensystem.io/downloads/sprout-proving.key

Somehow download failed due to no connection. Could you try to download this file with a browser. If that works, you may start the wallet again and let it download the file. If download works in a browser but not in the wallet ... this would be very unexpected.
