Topic: Zencash: Excellent potential? (Read 10810 times)

The anonymity algorithm inherent in Horizen is unique and hasn`t yet been implemented in any other cryptocurrency, which will attract more and more new coin fans. In addition, the recent release on Huobi - one of the largest exchanges - indicates the growing interest of the crypto community to this project. This will cause the effect of the coin price and capitalization increasing.

is this an article-advertisment?
if it's true, this is a success one.
but I think the name of this coin is too similar to ZEC.

In general, I will not argue that ZenCash will have a serious popularity, probably much larger than even the Monero project, which today also shows very good indicators on the market, so I would probably still try to invest more in it

Yes.
What makes Horizen (previously Zencash) different than another cryptocurrency is the fact Horizen is not only a crypto but a platform with privacy products and a lot of development behind.

If you are interested in HoriZen and want to really know the potential then do read the report released by Greyscale.

Well this might not be something new for those who are already following ZEN but definitely a good read for people who are exploring good projects with real problem solving abilities.

Recently I received this T-shirt! Thanks all Horizen team and especially Medar!

You can find T-shirts, tank tops, infant apparel, backpacks, snapback hats, cell phone cases and many others at https://store.horizen.global

Agree to disagree, I guess. Horizen sounds like a cell phone company

Horizen is now listed on Huobi, one of the world's largest exchanges! This new partnership will help continue to expand the Horizen global presence.
Way to Go

I don`t think so. On the contrary, the new name shows that new horizons, prospects and opportunities have opened up before the project. It sounds more convincing and grand. Zencash was associated precisely with the coin, a measure of value in the sale, while Horizen shows the scale of not only the coin, but also the project as a whole.

Horizen has the properties of all the famous crypto currency.
1. The DNA of Bitcoin
2. Privacy feature of Zcash
3. Smart contract feature of Ethereum
4. DAO & Masternode concept from Dash

What more features you want to determine the potential of a crypto ?

A very interesting read about crypto. The overall discussion was concluded to the below 5 points

• Wall Street Money is Coming to Crypto
• Crypto is at a Fork in the Road
• Privacy Coins Will Get Attention in 2019

Zencash was a great name. Horizen is such a terrible name.  Baffling decision

The only reasson I am looking into Horizen as it is now called is because of Grayscale investment into the project, I saw the announcement but I haven't read the scale of investment into it, Grayscale investing into ETC has greatly helped the price and make it a top coin in the space not because of the tech now because for me ETC is still a shadow of Ethereum.

It's the most interesting privacy coin to me, Not only it has an excellent potential for its value but an excellent potential for its technology and its uses IRL, which I think is maybe more important to us

Grayscale launched an Investment trust for Zen the cryptocurrency from Horizen (Zencash is now Horizen). Grayscale has currently only a few crypto assets. Perhaps less than a dozen. It prefers quality over quantity. Having a just a few cryptos is showing how strict this asset manager is while choosing a crypto, making a deep due diligence before investing in anything (everyone should by the way).

The team behind Horizen is surely proud to see Grayscale looking closely at Zen, it's a great reward for them for sure
 
With Grayscale adding Zen it opens the doors to institutional and accredited investors. What does it mean? It means than crypto asset managers do believe in the potential of Zen. And they are smarter than us with funds management. Institutional investors can now invest in crypto without the fear of regulation, etc. Be sure to see some big investors coming to Zen very soon

Digital Currency Group is also looking at Zen, because the group is interested with privacy coins, if you don't know what is behind the Digital Currency Group, check out its portfolio, you're surely familiar with a lot of them https://dcg.co/portfolio/

Technically speaking, Horizen has more than a cryptocurrency to offer. Check out the website to know what products the team is working on. It also has R&D projects with IOHK for DAO voting system and scaling solution (IOHK is from Cardano dev.)
The team is not a bunch of geeks, they are passionate, have an ideology and are dedicated to work on Horizen. While some cryptos have just a few members on their team, Horizen has 50, 50 people working together and joining their skills.

Today I was once gain in Shato Robert Doms Restaurant (Kyiv, Khreshatyk 24) and this time I paid for coffee and tea in ZEN (Horizen, ex-ZenCash) which is available with Paytomat system.

This time I took photo of 2 bills, the one on the left is in ZEN and paid it instantly from Coinomi wallet.
0.31951 ZEN was at the moment around $5. The check on the right is ordinary check, which lists what you took, for example #1 is coffee (59 UAH, Hryvnya - Ukrainian currency) and #2 is tea (78 UAH)

I believe that ZenCash is one of the leaders of today's market. Recently, the team is actively working on the development of the platform ecosystem. The project doesn`t stand still and continues to develop. In the future, the ZenCash team will focus on supporting the network and work products, countering "51% attacks," and developing sidechain solutions. A few days ago there was a mandatory update of the Super Node software.

Cryptocurrency founder has global ambitions

Rob Viglione wants to change the world through cryptocurrency.

While Viglione, founder of privacy-centric cryptocurrency ZenCash and a PhD candidate in finance at the University of South Carolina, served as a military scientist working with combat support intelligence in Afghanistan, he saw firsthand how tumultuous societies led to unstable currency. With an interest in Bitcoin and a background in physics, mathematics and economics, he decided to try to help.

The same we can say about all crypto.
Volatility is high now, but some people see these times as good opportunity to invest
