Bathrobe: Yeah - It's been a patient building for sure. One that many of us have known is solid, and "markets" are now beginning to validate.

The amount of reach PIVX is setting up to have in 2018 is amazing.

I have a twitter wager going... I said around $80 by end of next year. Another is saying $100+. 11 PIV is on the line. Either way - whoever wins, we all win.

The rate we're expanding, I think $80 might be low...

I will include 2 main factors in my answer, crypto in 2018 and the tech.
1. 2018 is going to be huge for crypto. We see it unfolding and we have to include that here.
2. Pivx tech is on par with the two big top anon coins - Monero and Zcash. But once we are fully anon, next year is my guess, we will be a better deal than either. Especially since we are the only POS anon coin with the zerocoin protocol.

We should be an easy 100 USD on tech alone, but 2018 is going to see a huge influx of money. I am calling, at a minimum, a $200 year end price. All top 50-100 coins plus are gonna fly and we are a top 3 anon coin.

Been in this a while and I know a undervalued coin when I see one and then throw some 2018 crypto magic on it. Gonna go boom....

Hi there all you Pivx Guruus, just a simple question from a Newbie: What is so special about the zerocoin protocol? Is there a big advantage to all the competitors?

Right now if you are spending using zPIV (zerocoin) and using the 1 zPIV denomination, you are essentially mixing your coins with over 10,000 other coins. I don't know of any other privacy coins that offer something similar to that scale.

libzerocoin Exploit Fix

zPIV relies on a 3rd party library called libzerocoin. All currencies that utilize the zerocoin protocol use libzerocoin, and many of those currencies have been exposed to an exploit which allowed for the creation of multiple zero-knowledge spending proofs for one single zerocoin mint. The PIVX developers were able properly identify the exploit, track down any fraudulent spending proofs, link the fraudulent spending proofs with their one valid proof that they were mutated from, and remove any mints from the accumulators that were derived from the invalid spends.
