lol, all clones use the Zcash ceremony...
No not necessarily. Only direct forks of the Zcash network but not forks of the software.
ZCL, ZEN, HUSH, ZER... they all use the ZEC ceremony for the proving key.
You won't hear negative comments towards ZCash from this team, yes we are fork from ZCash, but we will improve it's code and we have completely different goals. We have diffrent aproch and different concept. Soon will be ready Secure nodes and people will have chance to see first real differences. Do not forget that Bitcoin was first but it is not last.
Monero (previously known as Bitmonero) is one of the first CryptoNote coins. It utilizes the same values every CryptoNote coin does – privacy, decentralization and fungibility. Monero development is community-driven, based on donations and with a focus on decentralization and scalability.
Monero or CryptoNote Coin? which one will you choose today?
We have time, have funds, good Dev team, and we will accomplish much!
