What is Zdash?
[Zdash] is a private implementation of the "Zerocash" protocol forked from [Zcash].
Based on Bitcoin's code, it intends to offer a far higher standard of privacy through a
sophisticated zero-knowledge proving scheme that preserves confidentiality of transaction metadata.

I missed out on Zcash and started mining too late. This may be a second chance for myself and others who missed out on that sweet little profit, if it proves to be just as lucrative; perhaps in a long term sense considering its bitcoin similarities. I don't know much about mining algorithms but I know enough to run a miner.
Will you be updating the steemit community once a windows/linux/mac miner is available? @joseph
yes I will be making updates here. You can PM me your email address on steemitchat or bitcointalk for zdash slack invite.
That would be nice, in the meantime we could check equihash miners to hire for the launch. :P
