Re: [ANN] Zcoin - The Zerocoin cryptocurrency, guaranteeing financial privacy
what i cant understand is this code taken from https://github.com/zcoinofficial/zcoin/blob/master/src/main.h#L1356:
You see that "if TestNet" hashing is LYRA2, else it is scrypt_N_1_1_256
so are we mining scrypt_N ?

Code:
uint256 GetPoWHash(int height) const
{
uint256 thash;
if( !fTestNet && height >= 500){
LYRA2(BEGIN(thash), 32, BEGIN(nVersion), 80, BEGIN(nVersion), 80, 2, height, 256);
}else if(fTestNet && height >= 138){
LYRA2(BEGIN(thash), 32, BEGIN(nVersion), 80, BEGIN(nVersion), 80, 2, height, 256);
}else{
scrypt_N_1_1_256(BEGIN(nVersion), BEGIN(thash), GetNfactor(nTime));
}
return thash;
}
{
uint256 thash;
if( !fTestNet && height >= 500){
LYRA2(BEGIN(thash), 32, BEGIN(nVersion), 80, BEGIN(nVersion), 80, 2, height, 256);
}else if(fTestNet && height >= 138){
LYRA2(BEGIN(thash), 32, BEGIN(nVersion), 80, BEGIN(nVersion), 80, 2, height, 256);
}else{
scrypt_N_1_1_256(BEGIN(nVersion), BEGIN(thash), GetNfactor(nTime));
}
return thash;
}
It was scrypt_N and i have mined with GPU initially. But there were some TITAN scrypt that raped entire hash, and after block 500 zcoin was forked to Lyra2 only CPU to prevent GPU asic.
