Re: [ANN] Zcoin - The Zerocoin cryptocurrency, guaranteeing financial privacy

ZCOIN could easely reach 0.1
The best altcoin out.
Just imagine bittrex and poloniex add....

Hi

In terms of price it will definitely go up if poloniex or bittrex gets added, also with the related zcash launch on 28 october the zcoin price should shoot up as well. Not sure if it will hit 0.1 btc but it will go up fairly soon.

I think it should hit bittrex soon, as the devs just need to update and fix their zcoin wallet. The Bittrex slack mentioned that they are waiting on the dev to fix issues with the wallet before they reconsider adding it.

Anyway patience is needed in trading, it is best to accumulate and buy now while the price is relatively low BEFORE it gets added to the major exchanges.

Care to explain this, how zcash launch affects zcoin price?

Zcash and zcoin share many similarities, just some technical features are different and they each have advantages and disadvantages. Check out the following for a comparison:

http://blog.zcoin.tech/zcoin-and-zcash/

Now the issue with the wallet database re indexing each time it starts is known by the devs, and they are working on it. I have not seen from the zcoin devs a timescale on when it will be fixed, but hopefully soon.

I have also heard that both Zcash and Zcoin have received funding from Roger Ver and other investors so they each are also linked in this way as well as both focusing on promoting privacy.

Maybe someone can email the devs to find out the status of the wallet fix?
