RE: Breaking News: Bittrex to Support the ZenCash Hardfork from ZClassic.
I believe the 110,000 block is Tuesday or Wednesday this week. Rolf talks about it in the video I posted here. I have joined the team in a limited capacity. I also believe Zencash will be a hot comodity. https://steemit.com/zencash/@hilarski/zencash-chain-split-from-zclassic-and-the-zencash-whitepaper
Do you know if the hashing code will be resistance to ASICs miners?
I am not a miner. @blockops can you answer this?
I bought it months back so I am sure its OK. Its own Bittrex. Thanks for info buddy.
@hilarski for mining it uses the same equihash algorithm as zcash which is somewhat memory intensive.
That makes it much less cost effective to design an ASIC for it especially since the GPU guys will be designing 10 nm and 7nm GPUs in the next few years.
Designing and producing ASICs at those small feature sizes is very expensive. So I expect there will probably not be an ASIC miner for ZenCash for a long time, if ever.
