Here is an update on where we are at with Bittrex support. They want to make sure the ZenCash node software has protection from replay support before talking further. The good news is these changes are currently being tested by the team.

Great. Would avoid people having issues getting their coins

The ZenCash team is actively working with Bittrex to have them do the swap automatically. As soon as we have a definite answer we'll update all communication channels.

What if I hold it on Bittrex? Do you plan to work with Bittrex to do the swap automatically?

Yes that is correct. The entire Zclassic blockchain up to the fork will be copied so ZenCash will start with a blockchain that already has value in it.

Hold the Zclassic until after the ZenCash launch, happening at 7 pm EDT (2300 UTC) on May 23, 2017.

You will be able to access your ZenCash by exporting your Zclassic private keys our of your Zclassic wallet, then importing the Zclassic private keys into your ZenCash wallet, which will be available after the launch.

There is already a version of the ZenCash wallet that supports Zcash and Zclassic, and will support ZenCash after the launch. See how to use it here:

Am i right to say that i just need to be holding $ZCL on 22-23rd May to get my share of $ZEN ?

oh dear what people don't realize is that a 10mil marketcap for what zen is offering is peanuts, censorship-resistant communications and anonymous economy deserves 100m as a starting point, lets do this!

Its still not too late to mine some Zclassic!!
The zclassic balance in your wallet on 23 of may is also you ZEN balance!

http://pool.miningspeed.com
0% fee
we currently have 35ksol on zclassic!

Zen will be added to the pool a few days before launch!

very nice to hear that . When can I mine this ZEN and what about the algo?
if I buy some zcl now on the exchange and transfer it to my private wallet then May I have a bonus Zen for this amount of zcl ?
Thank you.

That's correct. You need to wait for the fork on the 23rd. I think that was origianlly happening on April the 29th, but now is confirmed for the date you mention. This is mentioned in the FAQ section of the website: https://zencash.io/  (Can I invest in Zen prior to launch?).

so if i was to sell zclassic now i would not be credited zencash?

i thought the snapshot was april 29th?
or do i have to ZCL until may 23rd?

thanks for any help

working on that, will have it out in next week

Yes, there will be a ZenCash extension within the Eleos Wallet. See this post for pictures on how to export and import keys using the Eleos wallet: https://blog.zencash.io/transfer-zclassic-to-eleos-wallet-and-copy-private-keys/

It does not yet work with ZenCash, but it will soon. It currently works with Zcash and Zclassic

First page updated. Current list of ZenCash core team member Bitcointalk usernames is
finpunk

blockops

As soon as Bittrex confirms to the ZenCash core team that there will be support for the Zclassic and ZenCash chain split we'll post an update here. Not making any promises until there is firm commitment.

Here is a guide on how to move your Zclassic off Bittrex onto your own wallet, export Zclassic keys, then import them to the ZenCash wallet: https://blog.zencash.io/transfer-zclassic-to-eleos-wallet-and-copy-private-keys/

There are other ways to export Zclassic keys from your wallet and import them into a new ZenCash wallet also, of course, the above is just one example.

Secure Node FAQ

Q: What are the requirements for a Secure Node in order to participate in the 3.5% portion of the mining reward?

A: Secure Node requirements:

1. Operate ZenCash node software on a capable system.
    a. Recommended memory is more than 4GB
    b. Decent internet connection
    c. Secured to prevent hacking.
2. Maintain entire ZenCash blockchain on the system.
3. Provide a valid SSL certificate to the ZenCash Node software to use for communicating with other nodes and wallets.
4. Keep at least 42 ZenCash on the server in a t_address for staking
5. Monitor the SecureNode channel for challenge messages from SecureNodeHQ approximately every 10 minutes (in a z_transaction message field)
6. Respond to challenge with identifying information of the Secure Node.
7. Challenge response will be a combination of two things:
    a. Send a shielded message to SecureNodeHQ containing public t_address and GNUnet document location in message f   ield
    b. Publish a document to GNUnet signed with private t_address including:
        i. public t_address of staking Zen, which will also be used for reward payment.
        ii. SSL certificate and IP address
        iii. Block header from blockchain
        iv. Other information that may be necessary to make sure it is a unique server
8. Other potential requirements that may come up in future to allow ZenCash system to use the Secure Nodes for consensus and computing power

The Secure Node tracking system will publish the challenges, and the responses from the Secure Node will be tracked and published on a web page for visibility. Payments will be done on a regular basis.

Q: Will you publish a guide on how to set up and run a Secure Node?

A: Yes we will publish a guide on how to set up and run a Secure Node. Coming soon on the ZenCash Blog at https://blog.zencash.io

Q: If I have no Linux skills will you show me how to set up and run a Secure Node?

A: If you are completely unfamiliar with how to use Linux then it probably won't be something appropriate for you to do. The priority in compensating Secure Nodes is to make sure the ZenCash network has a good amount of nodes with sufficient computing power and security to operate the system reliably.

This means we want the people who are operating Secure Nodes to understand what they are doing, which is why we are intentionally placing a lower limit on technical skill to operate them. And asking people to put 42 ZenCash on the Secure Node at risk. This is by design, so the operator of the Secure Node makes the system secure.

Yes today or tomorrow we will make that happen. Though I'm not sure why they would honor anonymous coins now that darknets markets announced that they are dropping support for Dash. Regardless, Zencash will become much more valuable once a new revision of eleos wallet supporting ZEN comes out. I expect things to pan out when there's an update.

Is Bittrex going to honor the ZCL hodling and auto-add the ZEN?
