The dev apparently jumped ship a few weeks ago, and we're here left to pick up the pieces.

I'm not a coin dev (mostly a full-stack webdev who dabbles in C and C# as well) but I've tried my best to fork the coin in a better direction (and give the coin a meaning):

I know, I still need to upload the source code for these bad boys, but the binaries are up:

Windows: https://github.com/ecs87/ZEX-Fork/releases/tag/ZEX_Win
Linux: https://github.com/ecs87/ZEX-Fork/releases/tag/ZEX_Linux

Again, PLEASE update your wallets before block 37500 or there WILL be conflicts on the network. To prevent you losing any mining time or masternode downtime update your wallet ASAP! The wallet(s) should continue to operate normally until block 37500 when the switch will take place. If there are ANY issues please let me know!

The wallet version should be 2.0.1.1 (the ecs87 Block 37500 fork). You can confirm this by going to Tools > Information

What are the changes? Miner rewards have been reduced to 10% while masternodes are up to 90%. Block rewards stay at 10 ZEX. Masternode collateral has doubled meaning now 3000 ZEX is required to hold a masternode (this was done to combat the excessive pumping and dumping in addition to preventing current investors from very easily obtaining a masternode at current prices; in short, this should raise the price by increasing the "difficulty" to obtain a new ZEX or masternode).

What's in store for the future? First I have a web-wallet platform that is mass-deployable (http://wallet.zex-coin.com). Meaning nearly anyone who wants to can just plug in their coin name, and have a turnkey web wallet. This is step 1 for getting this coin out of the dump.

Step 2 is to live up to the coin's revised full-name: Zero (fee) Exchange Xperiment. That's right, we're going to launch a zero-fee bot-resistant exchange from a source made from scratch to test out with our own coin (ZEX). After beta testing is finished the last step (Step 3) is to launch the platform so that any coin (but mostly targeted at newer coins) can have their own isolated exchange away from bots and the sea of other coins to at least get a foothold into the crypto market instead of being instantly overrun. Why pay a ton to get listed on an exchange that doesn't put them first when our platform ALWAYS puts them first because it's THEIR exchange.

Spread the word to friends and family! This coin is no longer a shitcoin, but actually has some kind of purpose. Stop the dumping and let's get to pumping  Cool
