RE: ADSactly Spotlight on Cryptocoins -- ZCoin/XZC -- 10th feature "private" coins

in #crypto6 years ago

This looks very suspicious. There is no code provided anywhere, the quotes on zcoin.tech mostly refer to the (outdated) 2013 Zerocoin protocol (which was superseded by Zerocash, the foundation of Zcash), and not the coin itself. Links on zcoin.tech erroneously go to zcoin.cash, which may be a remnant of bad copy-paste.

Zcoin appears to be an attempt to capitalize on confusion between it and Zcash. There is no code available anywhere and no details. If it is indeed based on Zerocoin (and not Zerocash), then transaction sizes will be at least 50x larger than those on Zcash. This is a coin without a purpose that will be made obsolete as soon as it launches.

Be very wary. Happy to be proven wrong if there actually is an implementation and satisfying motivation for this coin to exist.

Sort:  

Where are u reading the code, sorry ? https://github.com/zcoinofficial/zcoin . Where the hell do u get the information that tx size of zerocoin will be 50x larger than zcash ?
