Thanks. Is there an official source of info for Zerocash that will be updated on a regular basis? We all read this story in Wired days ago.

https://twitter.com/ZerocoinProject - last tweet was in 2014
http://zerocash-project.org/ - last media update was in early 2015



https://github.com/Electric-Coin-Company/zcash github is a good source. Another way is to follow @zooko on twitter and maybe ask the Electric Coin Company directly.

Are those projects still alive?

http://zerocash-project.org

http://zercoin.org

http://z.cash

I haven't seen any action since 2014...  Undecided

They promise so much improvement towards privacy and anonymity.

Are there any active github repositories?

I just found this (inactive) one:

https://github.com/Zerocash

Is it all dead?  Huh

Wired: Zerocoin Startup Revives the Dream of Truly Anonymous Money

http://www.wired.com/2015/11/zerocoin-startup-revives-the-dream-of-truly-anonymous-money/

All well and good ...but can you POW mine it? Can I pull out my old KNC Jupiter 550gh and have a go at it? (wtf its winter i can just use it as a speculative space heater) Smiley

hope its not 'scrypt' and GPU...or hell am I completely off and it is a 'protocol' to add to any alt scrypt or sha-256 as they stated 1 year ago....i think?

thanks


good questions! any answer to these?

Zerocoin/cash is going to be a separate block chain. Technically an altcoin that will need miners to secure it.

Good luck with that. Seems like delays and more delays ...

At the very least Monero actually exists.

dunno about that...there is a hell of a lot of SHA256 and scrypt hardware out there already so....

Any news? Zerocoin seems to be dead/vaporware. Sad

If you care about anonymity, then you'd like to know that it can be achieved with the help of AT coin mixer, for coins that have AT support, eg. Qora and Burst. The first Atomic Cross Chain Transfer is to be made soon!
Yes, I do but I don't like any (third-party) mixers. They have nothing to do with anonymity. I also do not like Dash and Monero for some reasons. I like Zerocash/Zerocoin and the concept behind it.

Third party? I do not get what you mean. AT is open source.. There is no third party involved, meaning for the first time you don't have to trust anyone..


Or do you mean something else.
I meant I had not liked third-party mixers (you have to trust the mixer in this case) and any other mixers (your funds might be traced using taint techniques). But really don't know much about AT and if it's possible to reach a decent level of anonymity with it.

It's open source, you won't have to trust anyone - since you can review the code yourself.
Here is a relevant thread --> Please check https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/at-can-be-used-to-anonymize-inter-blockchain-transfers-who-would-have-thought-893271

So early 2016 is the launch date? We definitely need a new coin so excited about this. What about distribution? Will you do a IPO or giveaway? What is the approach to this?

This coin has been talked about everywhere , it is very profound and well developed.

It can be a direct competitor to XMR (monero) in all aspects. Definitely a big competition going around DASH,XMR, ShadowCoin and this.

It is my understanding that this flaw only affects zerocash (which is not trustless), and not zerocoin.
