If anyone wants to see how Zerocoin transactions look like on the blockchain:

Check out a sample mint transaction where 50 coins go into a blackhole.

This is a sample spend transaction where 50 coins come out from the blackhole and have no linkage with its mint transaction or any history at all.

The point is that the 50 coin from the Zerocoin spend transaction could have come from any of the people who minted 50 coins giving it very high anonymity.

So does this mean that the five 100 XZC transactions that I minted will enable others to also use that quantity of coins to mint/spend? And if so, will my coins that went through the mint and spend function get any confirmations then? Its been over 2 months now at zero confirmations, and I would like to know if there is any chance of them coming back/getting confirmations?

Thanks for your time.

They always come back... but wow, 2 months is bad. The artificial limit of 1 spend per block, which was put in place because confirming spends put too much performance strain on pools, is probably what's to blame here.
As I understand it Znodes will be there exclusively for this purpose - to confirm zerocoin mints/spends - so at the latest when they launch is when you should get your confirmations.
