Hey Guys... As a long standing Zcoin holder/investor and supporter who earned quite some ROI on pretty much every token I have invested in, except for Zcoin Cheesy

I was just wondering how things are going? Will MTP ever exist? Hows the Irish lad coming along with his Ethereum mixer? Are you guys ever planning of making some actual marketing efforts at all? Do you already have a wallet that a person can download and have it work? Tongue

Guys I love you, but how real is this project? Where is the Reubster? How about communicating a bit more about goals and targets in the roadmap... How about that MTP? Tongue

How much coins needed for the staking rewards?

You know im just kidding and that im not.... Will this ever take off? Good luck i hope for the best!!!

MTP exists on testnet though and the testnet was redeployed again due to improvements on with a reduction of proof size on MTP and also to resolve the implementation issue raised by by mbevand.
You can see it progressing here: http://testnet.zcoin.io:3001/
Because of these changes we will extend the bounty competitions.

We also have been given a draft copy of a research paper provided by @hidetoshi that touches on MTP that we have agreed to not release until they have finalized their research and we are assessing its impact. They're also waiting for MTP's authors to reply. Our dev team has been very busy in looking into this.

Ethereum mixer:
https://github.com/zcoinofficial/ethereum-zmixer
Riordant has pushed a functional outline of the Ethereum zmixer here.
There's a lot more code that he has done but he is not pushing it just yet until he gets clarification on how big integers will be handled in Metropolis:
https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/vbuterin-patch-2/EIPS/bigint_modexp.md

The wallet works we have a private 0.8.7.9 version also in Slack if you guys want to try it out which I am using which seems to resolve some sync issues but our core upgrade is very close to finishing which greatly improves performance.
