In a  previous post  I outlined all the marketing/scamming tricks used by the Zcash founders to keep people in the dark. Today is launch-day and the futures indicate a $596 price tag per coin! What most people don’t know is that the founders will take 20% of all coins in the first four years of mining. And that’s without mining themselves! Feel free to check this part of their website to see what I’m talking about:

A question that often pops up is: what are the differences between Zcoin and Zcash?  Zcoin and ZCash are the only two cryptocurrencies that use zero-knowledge proofs to guarantee zero-knowledge financial anonymity. There are various tradeoffs between using ZCoin and ZCash. Zcoin uses the  Zerocoin Protocol  (cited by academics 208 times, at time of writing), whereas Zcash uses the  Zerocash Protocol  (cited by academics 104 times, at time of writing). The cryptographic properties of Zcoin and Zcash supplement each other quite nicely, and a good way to describe them would be sibling cryptocurrencies.

Il workshop sarà focalizzato sulle metodologie di acquisizione forense delle pagine web, fondamentali per disporre di prove digitali inconfutabili a supporto dei casi di cyber bullismo, revenge porn, diffamazione sui social network, ecc. Sarà esaminato lo standard ISO/IEC 27037:2012 e ne saranno evidenziati pro e contro. Sarà presentato in anteprima Kopjra Forensic Web Evidence Acquisition, il framework di acquisizione forense realizzato e brevettato da  Kopjra . Saranno esposti casi di studio in ambito civile, penale e notarile. In conclusione, con uno sguardo rivolto al futuro, saranno presentate alcune soluzioni tecnologiche, basate sul paradigma blockchain, negli ambiti della notarizzazione della proprietà intellettuale e dei contratti smart.

What is Zcash? Perhaps the most hotly anticipated digital asset of 2016, Zcash has a highly regarded development team and investment from major VC firms (Pantera, Fenbushi, and The Digital Currency Group) and Bitcoin VIPs (Roger Ver, Erik Voorhees, Barry Silbert, and Li Xiaolai). Zcash offers complete transaction privacy. While transactions can be seen on the blockchain, the sender, recipient, and amount of the transaction remain private. The payment details can be revealed to others, but only if users give them the transaction view key. Read more:  https://z.cash What Zcash pairs will trade on Kraken? ZEC/XBT, ZEC/EUR, ZEC/USD, ZEC/GBP, ZEC/JPY, ZEC/CAD Margin: Coming soon - stay tuned for details!

A  Smau , che si tiene fino al 27 ottobre a Fieramilanocity, Ez Lab ha presenta in anteprima AgriOpenData, innovativa piattaforma al servizio dell’agrifood che utilizza la tecnologia blockchain – alla base del funzionamento degli scambi dei Bitcoin – per  tracciare in modo sicuro il percorso della filiera agroalimentare  – una questione più che aperta dopo le recenti notizie di false certificazioni .

Oramai ci siamo .. manca poco al 28 Ottobre, giornata in cui ZCASH  sarà finalmente minato e possibilmente acquistato. Ma attenzione, a partire dal 28 Ottobre infatti, non solo sarà possibile iniziare il " mining " sulla Blockchain, ma per i meno esperti sarà anche possibile avere ZCASH senza minarli , direttamente acquistandoli sulla piattaforma  THEROCKTRADING  . Trading aperto , ma a partire dal 28 Ottobre .

Wouldn’t it be cool if you could easily earn money on the internet? Yours is a social media community like reddit, but where every user has an integrated wallet so they can easily pay each other for things. It’s the first social media community with a real economy.  See the pitch we recently gave at Boost  VC for an overview of the idea.

We  are  happy to announce that all technical difficulties on CryptoPay side have been resolved and  BTC payments   are  now  available ! But while the Ethereum Foundation team is working on improving their blockchain, the world of cryptocurrencies continues to evolve. It means that there is a whole range of  positive trends  going on right now: The Bitcoin price continues to grow as  Japan  declared its new policy to accept  BTC  for  utility payments . This is an important development stage for the cryptocurrency as it means the growth of interest and trust which leads to a positive impact on the value of BTC;  The Litecoin growth is also unstoppable. According to numerous cryptocurrency markets, Chinese investors seem to be very interested in the digital silver . Taking the global lack of Scrypt hardware into the account we can be sure that the value of LTC will continue to grow;  Due to cons...

TOKYO -- Japan looks to end sales-tax collection on purchases of virtual currencies in the spring, a move likely to propel the growth of bitcoin and others as alternatives to traditional money. The change would reduce costs for buyers and relieve operators of virtual-currency exchanges of the administrative burden related to the tax. Discussions between the Finance Ministry and Financial Services Agency are expected to lead to a formal decision after talks by a ruling-coalition tax panel at the end of the year.

Back in September, we  reported  on a new privacy-centric cryptocurrency called ZCoin. Since then, the digital asset has launched, and now trades on certain exchanges. Now, the core ZCoin team is committing  to a monthly donation to Ross Ulbricht charities. ZCoin Stands With Ross Ulbricht and the Ideals of the Silk Road ZCoin  is a cryptocurrency that uses  Zero-Knowledge cryptographic proofs  on its network. Launched on September 28 of this year, the token was created by developers Poramin Insom and Gary Le. ZCoin is a rebrand of Moneta and is not to be confused with Zcash. Any cryptocurrency can use the zero-Knowledge technology. In fact, a number of Zcash competitors use zero-proofs, such as the Komodo project, and  Zcash .

This article was  originally published  in Chinese on my personal blog. On October 10th, 2016, right after the conclusion of Scaling Bitcoin Milan (the third in a series of conferences on the topic of scaling the Bitcoin network), I made the decision to switch the bitcoin client software that ViaBTC runs from Bitcoin Core to Bitcoin Unlimited. This decision was not made lightly;  I do not believe I have the right to impose my own personal views on the users of my pool.  But, after consulting with all of the larger users on my pool I was able to make this decision with their overwhelming support. The decision of whether or not to increase the block size beyond 1MB is ultimately made by the miners, but in the specific case of this issue, it is actually the pool owners, not the hardware operators, who have the experience required to make such a decision. As we are seeing now, and have seen in the past, it turns out that the miners (that is, those who own the har...

  Voter identification laws by state Voting policies in the U.S. Voter ID laws Voting by state Election dates Election terms WHAT'S ON  YOUR  BALLOT? In recent years, state legislatures across the country have implemented voter identification laws. These laws require voters to present some form of identification at the polls. In some cases, the required identification must include a photo.  Voter identification is a hotly contested electoral policy issue. Proponents maintain that voter identification requirements are necessary in order to prevent voter fraud and protect election integrity. Critics, meanwhile, contend that voter fraud is very rare and identification requirements effectively disenfranchise some Americans, including racial minorities, the elderly, and the disabled. HIGHLIGHTS As of August 2016, 31 states enforced voter identification requirements. A total of 16 states required voters to present photo identif...

We have now  completed the recalculation of shares in the form of ICN tokens . ICONOMI collected investments in 5 currencies: 3 cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ether, Lisk) and 2 fiat currencies (EUR, USD). To finalise the investors’ share of ICN tokens, the 85 million ICN tokens were distributed based on the amount of funds raised. You can see your final ICN token amount by logging into the ICONOMI website. More on ICN distribution calculation on our blog. Due to the current  instability of the Ethereum network  and its unpredictable consequences, including many users' wallets out of sync, ICONOMI has decided to  postpone  planned ICN token genesis and distribution. ICN tokens are based on the Ethereum platform, therefore in order to protect our investors, and to assure rightfulness and equal opportunities to access ICN tokens immediately after launch, ICONOMI decided to postpone genesis and distribution  for at least 48 hours . More on the ICN genesis on...

Abstract Lykke Corp is a FinTech company based in Zurich that has launched the first global marketplace for all asset classes and instruments, using the Colored Coin protocol on blockchain. The paper explains the architecture of the exchange and first use cases. We discuss how the exchange will evolve over time. We explore the macroeconomic benefits of the new distributed ledger technology (DLT). The Lykke exchange operates similar to JAVA in the sense that it is compatible with any type of blockchain; marketplace was first developed on blockchain of Bitcoin, but is currently being expanded to Ethereum. Every financial instrument can become a listed security on the blockchain in the form of a digital token, through the so-called Colored Coin protocol. Colored coins follow the idea of ''coloring'' a specific Bitcoin - the issuer guarantees to hand out the underlying assets to the person, who returns the colored coin.

Il servizio relativo al cambio di euro in moneta virtuale - bitcoin, offerto contro il trattenimento di un margine a titolo di commissione, costituisce un'operazione esente da IVA, con la conseguenza che la società non potrà detrarre l'IVA sugli acquisti. Si tratta di uno dei principali chiarimenti forniti dall’Agenzia delle Entrate con la risoluzione n. 72/E del 2 settembre 2016. Nel documento di prassi l'Agenzia ha affrontato per la prima volta il tema dell'inquadramento fiscale delle monete virtuali.

Zooko Wilcox and Jack Grigg  | Apr 15, 2016 In our  last blog post , we announced that we have started using Equihash as the proof-of-work for block mining in Zcash ( #27 ). Equihash  is a Proof-of-Work algorithm devised by Alex Biryukov and Dmitry Khovratovich. It is based on a computer science and cryptography concept called the Generalized Birthday Problem. WHY ARE WE USING IT? Equihash has very efficient verification. This could in the future be important for light clients on constrained devices, or for implementing a Zcash client inside Ethereum (like  BTC Relay , but for Zcash).

What is Zcash? Why was it created? ______ When Bitcoin was first released, it brought an open financial system to the world. Anyone could connect without requiring permission from anyone else; anyone could extend and improve on it without permission. However, it came with a drawback – privacy. Bitcoin allowed everyone to see the sending address, recipient address, and value of all transactions on the blockchain. Sure, they weren’t tied to a user (or computer) by default, but contamination was a possibility. People are, after all, only human. In contrast, Zcash automatically hides the sending address, recipient address and the value of all transactions – unless you have the viewing key. The Zcash team was founded with privacy in mind: privacy for businesses; privacy for commerce. To be viable long-term, fungibility is needed – and without privacy, fungibility can’t exist. Bitcoin brought fungibility to the digital world, but Zcash is making it accessible. No longer do co...

Bitcoin is designed to allow its users to hold, send, and receive money online, but distributed ledgers can be used to do much more, including clearing and settlement of digital asset trading, provisining of identity, and distributed computing—all without the need for central intermediaries. The 10-minute video that follows presents plain English explanation of these concepts and why they have the potential to change the world.

A plain-language explanation of the Lightning Network, a protocol for scaling and speeding up blockchains. While it was designed to solve some of the technical limitations of the Bitcoin blockchain, it can be implemented on top of any blockchain. BY  ELIZABETH STARK  /  September 15, 2016 Imagine if every computer had to store every e-mail, to receive any. That's how blockchains work. Lightning Network allows computers to make blockchain transactions, only storing the data they care about—their own money. Lightning Network is a protocol for scaling and speeding up blockchains. It was designed to solve some of the technical limitations of the Bitcoin blockchain, but could be implemented on top of any blockchain.

Si è svolta il 30 settembre, nella sala degli affreschi del Palazzo Ateneo, la cerimonia di presentazione dell’innovativo Short Master, attualmente primo e unico in Italia, dal titolo: " CRIPTOVALUTE E BITCOIN: Strumenti teorico-pratici per operare con le nuove valute digitali decentralizzate". Il corso si propone di formare operatori giuridico/economici e tecnico/informatici in grado dicomprendere, negoziare, regolamentare e fornire consulenza specialistica in materia di conservazione, acquisto, produzione, vendita, spendita e negoziazione di bitcoin e altre cripto valute.  “ A tal fine è opportuno studiare in maniera approfondita le potenzialità ma anche i rischi del settore anche in considerazione dei molteplici sbocchi occupazionali –  ha   affermato il presidente Bitcoin Foundation Puglia, Giuseppe  Grisorio – come ad esempio collaborare con  regolatori e lawmakers; adattare i contratti commerciali e finanziari; compliance lato consu...
