This basically implements encrypted connections among Bit/altcoin peers.

This can kill anoncoin.

I'm relatively new but if I read this article correctly zerocoin will be part of anoncoin. http://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/2013/12/12/anoncoin-interview-lead-developer/

Maybe it will be implemented, but shhhh... Zerocoin needs independence

after carefully reading Zerocoin may just be added in anoncoin..

...So, Zerocoin can be thought of as a built-in, no trust coin-mixing service. Right now, the Anoncoin team are deciding on a sensible exchange rate between Anoncoin and Zerocoin, and what percentage of Anoncoin block rewards will be paid out in Zerocoin given the latter will be incorporated as an additional part of the ANC blockchain. In fact, Zerocoin was initially developed as an addition to Bitcoin. For whatever reason, perhaps caution against adding complex new features by the developers, or perhaps privacy being lower on their agenda than mainstream / regulatory acceptance, it seems unlikely the Bitcoin will adopt Zerocoin into its protocol any time soon.

This opens the door for Anoncoin, likely the first altcoin to integrate Zerocoin, to become the preferred coin for those who value their financial privacy. Lets face it; such a privilege has long been lost to users of credit cards, electronic banking, wire services, PayPal or anything that isnt cash, barter or carefully-deployed cryptocurrency. Anoncoin is shaping up to be the complete privacy package. I suspect it will function as a great testbed for anonymity features, as well as having a bright future of its own.

Anoncoin is premined. Also, zerocoin is now going to be its own alt coin, not an add on as was originally discussed on their website. The zerocoin website has not been updated for awhile.
