Is this Ian Miers' project or a coin hoping others will think it is? 2% premine is also unusually high for new coins.
Good question, was wondering the same thing.
no this is not Ian Miers project although it uses Ian Miers zerocoin library.
Can you explain how it uses Ian Miers' zerocoin library. As far as I know he has moved on to zerocash. Also why have you named your coin after his project?
we extended our sources and added zerocoins functionality (to hide a transactions origin).
zerocash is basicaly based on libzerocoin but extended to hide also amounts and destination.
libzerocoin is the library which is used and adapted by us. we named this project zerocoin
because the idea came from the original zerocoin/zerocash developers.
