Which zk-snarks privacy coin is best? Which has the spirit of the original bitcoin? The easy answer is BitcoinZ!

BTCZ = community coin, no premine, no dev fund, and no founders reward.

Look at all of these scam coins below with zk-snarks and tell me why anyone would want to own them.

ZEC = 20% founder fund, WTF
ZEN = ZCL fork, 8.5% treasury fund
ZCL = ZEC fork, TBD fork to BTCP
VOTE = Entire float 4.54% premine
HUSH = Premine, Zdash rebrand, airdrop/fork to BTCH
KMD = Premine and ICO 100M coins

Awesome news bitcoinz-pod. I checked the other code baselines:

BTCZ 1.0.14
ZEC 1.0.14
ZEN 2.0.10-1
ZCL 1.0.10-1
VoteCoin 1.0.13
Hush 1.0.12
KMD ?

zcash 1.0.14 was merged to bitcoinz master branch.
https://z.cash/blog/new-release-1-0-14.html
Main feature:
- support for viewing only keys - you can now import viewing key and list history of zaddr - read only mode

BTCZ is first zcash fork which support latest zcash 1.0.14

Just note that BTCZ will not be forked to BitcoinBitcoinZ similar to:
- ZCL => BitcoinPrivate
- HUSH => BitcoinHush
Coin is immutable.

The best in BTC spirit : BTCz, no doubt about that.
The best in technical aspect : I think it is ZCoin (XZC), when MTP will be really implemented, quicly now.
All others (ZCash and so on) are bullshit : not in the BTC spirit and technically not at the state of ZCoin (who is not in the BTC spirit with the dev fee and the nodes).
