Hi Zenmates.

Horizen is a story of privacy. What does it mean, why do we need to be private and why is this so hard today?
Today governments are following us, thanks to... us. We give them all the informations they need by sharing on our social media.

What happened?

I try to answer to this question in medium:

Feel free to comment, tell what you think

And tell me, why privacy is important to you?

Rob Viglione, Horizen Co-founder and President:

The $10k price mark is a psychologically important milestone for the bitcoin community following the harshness of the crypto winter. While the price surge could be related to the question of supply (the bitcoin “halvening” event in which the mining reward will permanently reduce by 50% is less than a year away), the impact of recent announcements, like Apple’s CryptoKit launch and the release of Facebook’s Libra White Paper, have undoubtedly also had an encouraging effect on consumer confidence around cryptocurrencies.

I will state it again. As far as Horizen's marketing strategy, there is something amiss. There is little to no engagement on any social platform level for Horizen. Heck, recently if a few people did not post here, this thread would be dead. Official YouTube channel videos garner less than 1K in views in their lifetime. Twitter is silent, and I could not tell you what's there on Slack or Discord. If the budget did not include funds for marketing, I'd say screw it because you get what you pay for. But in this case, there is a set aside for this purpose, yet nothing of value is put forth. Then, you see 44 minutes of video which again garners no significant views, conveys no new message on a channel with 9K subscribers and we are all expected to agree this is the best Rolf or any member of the foundation can do.

Whoever this Crypto Sean is I respect the effort, but it's clear this is a channel with very low production values that can't be taken seriously. Why waste time and effort on coordinating and executing something like this video? And the worst of all, how come such a video gets more views than the videos released on Horizen's own channel? Something is amiss there, and it seems no one is trying to fix it. I hope this is a sign that you all are busy with other things that matter!

Rolf Versluis discusses crypto mining, digital privacy, Horizen, and much more with Satoshi Sean in this fantastic interview.

Watch it here https://youtu.be/TdUvwhTcOro

This is our new community member, he showed interested in Horizen, they wanted to do an video and we arranged an interview.
This is not wasting of time, especially not wasting of resources as this came from community for community. I'm not sure about your statement about value of their channel but this is exactly what we need spreading the word of ZEN, don't you think? You would be surprised how expensive can be such interviews on bigger channels..From my standpoint it is important to constantly be present on all social medias.

WTF???
Time spent blocks looks very strange. Could there be an attack on network?

Pools are free to set block timestamps within the consensus rules, blocks with a timestamp > mintime as exposed by getblocktemplate are accepted by the network. Don't worry Wink

sorry folks noob question.

but what is the POS on this coin.

thank you

check this link , you wil get much better understanding
https://medium.com/@EdChain/pow-vs-pos-a-comparison-of-two-blockchain-consensus-algorithms-f3effdae55f5

This is POW coin, you are maybe confused by node rewards, this pool for which they are getting rewards is made by miners, allocating 20% of each mined block for this purpose, 10% each class of nodes.

I love the recap that discusses what happened in the month. This is a model most other communities should adopt in their releases.

Horizen has the long-term goal of moving its organizational structure towards a DAO. A DAO, or Decentralized Autonomous Organization, is software that acts as an organization with a number of predefined rules and procedures. Learn more about the ZenDAO on the Horizen Academy.
