- Zerocoin-in-Anoncoin. I am actively developing this based on the Zerocoin paper and libzerocoin source code released by the Zerocoin team (Matthew Green, Ian Miers, and Christina Garman (and now Eran Tromer?)) in 2013. It will be an extension to Anoncoin, so any ANC you buy or mine now will be convertible to Zerocoins without using an exchange, although upgrading the wallet software will be necessary. This will be ready in 1-2 months. See our thread here and our subreddit.
- Zerocash. This is the current project of the Zerocoin team and is based on completely different cryptography. No paper or source code has been released yet. This has every appearance of being a dead project, but who knows--maybe they are just being secretive about it. I have reason to believe that it will require counter-party trust in the person or persons who setup the initial parameters of the currency.
Topic: Can Zerocoin be mined yet? (Read 5060 times)
There is some confusion in this thread. Two separate currencies are implementing related but separate anonymous features:
ZEROqoin>>>>the decendent of ONEcoin ! ;-) LOL
It's not supposed to be released until around May 2014 last I read.
does anyone know if it is still going to be sha256 based? ie that would kick zerocoin into overdrive if everone could fire up their old (by may 2014)
bitcoin rigs
have a KNC Jupiter (oct) 555gh would be just on the verge of gathering dust on its elec use of 75 bucks/month
be nice to get an annoucnement hashing starts midnight such and such date in may..

*unlikely...i'd imagine it will NOTwork with current sha-256 based asic rigs but imho would probalby be a very good move on zerocoins part...but what do i know?*

Zerocoin is out as of yesterday I think.
So I imagine mining is a reality now?

also still unclear will asic machines for bitcoin work for zero coin ...gonna have Jupiter 555gh miner soon next couple months looking for something to do

Wait, what? Zerocoin is out?!

Other than zerocoin being released as an altcoin itself, I've read that anoncoin developers are actively developing an implementation. Are any other cryptocurrencies pursuing this, with likely future implementation?
no. the Devs will release Zerocoin in 2014.
in my opinion its an interesting concept and the devs are clever guys...

How do you know it will be released in 2014?
let us wait for next spring we have no other choise I guess. very very difficult to say something about the further development of zerocoin. so much dynamic in the market at the moment!
thanks for that.
what do you think about that coin? for me its worth to watch compared to most other scam coins. anonymity is a big feature and bitcoin will go to the mainstream (what is ok for me) and Zerocoin could go other ways...
also the zerocoin devs look pretty smart and professional
do you know which username Matthew D. Green has here in this forum?

In the beginning… the idea was to add the Zerocoin protocol to the blockchain making it possible to redeem Bitcoins anonymously. Just as paper currency once gained its value from being redeemable for gold, Zerocoins wold gain their value from being redeemable for Bitcoins. It now seems this model may be changing and Zerocoin may soon coin itself.
The big news is that Zerocoin is now talking about moving forward as it’s own alt-coin, perhaps as early as a few months from now. This is a radical change from the “road ahead”

thank you very much! you may also watch the ongoing discussion of the dev core team members in this thread:
Agree from an engineering point of view; ZeroCoin's requirement for a hard-fork and many lines of new code using complex crypto is a risk Bitcoin shouldn't take. Coin mixing done well has very close to as good privacy, and can be easily fixed if it doesn't work.
