Title: [ANN][ZEN] Horizen: Bringing Privacy To Life [EX ZenCash]
Post by: MedaR on October 10, 2017, 06:28:44 PM

Horizen previously known as ZenCash extended its brand on 22nd August 2018.
Horizen is a platform designed for private communications and private economic activity.
Cutting-edge cryptography and zero knowledge proofs enable fully anonymous peer to peer communications with Horizen.
Horizen's distributed and encrypted networking design is resistant to traffic correlation and metadata analysis.

Why start this project?

Existing cryptocurrencies fall short of being fully anonymous; whether it's from network-level deficiencies or economic shortcomings. There is no cryptocurrency in existence that guarantees full end-to-end encryption of the distributed network. Horizen is designed to be fully encrypted as a network and also as a means to send and distribute money.

What is zero-knowledge encryption?

Zero-knowledge encryption allows for undecipherable encrypted communications to propagate throughout the network while providing protections against denial of service attacks and spamming. Zero-knowledge encryption allows for private economic activity where the recipient, sender, and amount of activity is kept confidential.
   

What is Horizen and when was Horizen released?

  Horizen was launched May 30th, 2017. previously named as ZenCash

Horizen is a platform for secure communications and for deniable economic activity. It is an evolution of the Zcash codebase aimed at primarily enabling secure communications and resilient networking. As a platform it enables secure global messaging, persistent file storage, and private economic activity.

How is Horizen financially supported? Is it a ICO, pre-mine, or etc?


Horizen did not conduct an ICO or a pre-mine. Horizen began as a chainsplit from Zclassic, providing a base of ZEN owners.

Horizen funds growth using a redirection of a portion of the miner reward, to be spent on Horizen using a community governance mode. In the Horizen network, 8.5% of the tokens are allocated for community development, marketing, maintenance, and other costs paid for out of the treasury. This ensures that there are always enough resources available for growth.

I am an early Zclassic investor, what does this mean to me?
   
Anyone who held Zclassic prior to the block 110,000 chainsplit was allocated a 1:1 amount of Zen automatically. Simply import the Zclassic private keys into the new Zen wallet after the launch to redeem your tokens. Bittrex credited everyone who owned Zclassic at block 110,000 with an equivalent amount of Zen.
Are full nodes going to be incentivized with block rewards?
Anyone that runs a full node with additional requirements will qualify for the Secure Node reward and participates in the network node funds allocation program will receive their share of 10% of the coinbase rewards. The Secure Node System development is funded by the Horizen treasury.

(https://i.imgur.com/beNIS7w.jpg)

The research projects will be lead by Prof. Roman Oliynykov, a cryptographer, IT researcher, and lecturer.  Prof. Oliynykov’s team will handoff the prototypes and provide guidance to  InfoPulse, a software engineering firm assisting the Horizen engineering team with the implementation of the two research projects. InfoPulse is contracted directly with Horizen. Horizen production implementation date is not yet available.

The first component of the IOHK research project is to implement a custom version of IOHK’s reference treasury model for efficient decentralized resource allocation and community-driven preference adoption in governance.

The second key component of the IOHK research project is a core protocol upgrade to the Horizen blockchain to address one of the primary issues in the blockchain and cryptocurrency space: Scaling.

There have been a lot of discussions about Secure Nodes. Some of you probably do not have a clue what we're talking about.

What Secure Nodes are and how they are working?

Zen Secure Nodes form the foundation of a distributed and resilient network for accessibility and usability anywhere in the world.
Secure Nodes will enable fully encrypted communications and network obfuscation so end-user activity is protected

Latest update on November 13th

Quote
Today the Secure Nodes development and operations team is conducting a major system upgrade. The tracking and payments system will be in a scheduled unavailability period starting at approximately noon Eastern time today, and expected to last for 6 hours.

These upgrades address system scaling and security, and will improve downtime, failover, and timeout issues.

These types of issues were expected to manifest at larger node counts, and was one of the drivers to moving testing to mainnet. Because of the large number of testnet nodes, currently over 600, the developers and sysadminds were able to identify and make improvements to the code and configuration before moving to mainnet.

After this upgrade, we will operate for some days on testnet to verify stability. Moving to mainnet is still a priority, and we want to make sure the system can handle thousands of active nodes with a minimum of support issues.

Thanks to everyone for both your participation and patience in this process!

IMPORTANT UPDATE

Changing ZenCash Secure Node Beta to Mainnet Nov 30
The ZenCash Secure Node development and operations team is moving the Beta testing from testnet to mainnet on November 30th.
This will be done on the existing server clusters, which were designed to move from testnet beta to mainnet beta, mainnet beta with payments, then mainnet production. This is a deliberate process that is being done to plan.
The current servers will be put into maintenance at about 16:00 UTC. There is a migration plan already in progress, with many steps and checks along the way. The server reconfiguration, testing, and operational upgrade work is expected to take 12 hours.

If you are a node operator, checkout #securenodes for additional instructions from @devman

Secure Nodes update:

 Beta with Payments! The servers have been updated and restarted. Some updates to minimize phantom downtimes were applied. Please monitor your nodes for any issues.

We are also now in the earning phase. There will be no payment records created until the end of the first 24 hour period.  The time is approximate since the earning period is based on blocks not clocks.  There will be a post just before the first period end, about 7 or 8am GMT on the 16th.   Smiley

Brief update for you all on secure node tracking and payments.


We've completed just about all the server moves and upgrades - @cronic  did a lot of work on that during the last week.

The first payment run we did about a week ago generated an error and a spurious payment. For these first ones we are going through them carefully to make sure things are going properly. As we get them working well we can speed up and automate the process more.

I have been testing the upgraded payment process using the updated software with @devman on testnet for the last two days.

It looks to me, in my testing with payments on testnet, that we have the right process and enough checks to make sure everything goes well on the mainnet payments. I believe during the server upgrades the secure node tracking status has been maintained for all connected secure nodes, meaning when we do start payments they should go out to everyone that has been running nodes that meet requirements since we first started tracking them.

We both have families so there has also been timeout for the holidays. We are, however, planning on continuing to work over the next few days and as long as at takes to get this working properly.

Thank you for your patience and support as we work through the process, and thank you for operating ZenCash Secure Nodes!

Horizen previously known as ZenCash extended its brand on 22nd August 2018.
Horizen is a platform designed for private communications and private economic activity.
Cutting-edge cryptography and zero knowledge proofs enable fully anonymous peer to peer communications with Horizen.
Horizen's distributed and encrypted networking design is resistant to traffic correlation and metadata analysis.

Why start this project?

Existing cryptocurrencies fall short of being fully anonymous; whether it's from network-level deficiencies or economic shortcomings. There is no cryptocurrency in existence that guarantees full end-to-end encryption of the distributed network. Horizen is designed to be fully encrypted as a network and also as a means to send and distribute money.

What is zero-knowledge encryption?

Zero-knowledge encryption allows for undecipherable encrypted communications to propagate throughout the network while providing protections against denial of service attacks and spamming. Zero-knowledge encryption allows for private economic activity where the recipient, sender, and amount of activity is kept confidential.
   

What is Horizen and when was Horizen released?

  Horizen was launched May 30th, 2017. previously named as ZenCash

Horizen is a platform for secure communications and for deniable economic activity. It is an evolution of the Zcash codebase aimed at primarily enabling secure communications and resilient networking. As a platform it enables secure global messaging, persistent file storage, and private economic activity.

How is Horizen financially supported? Is it a ICO, pre-mine, or etc?


Horizen did not conduct an ICO or a pre-mine. Horizen began as a chainsplit from Zclassic, providing a base of ZEN owners.

Horizen funds growth using a redirection of a portion of the miner reward, to be spent on Horizen using a community governance mode. In the Horizen network, 8.5% of the tokens are allocated for community development, marketing, maintenance, and other costs paid for out of the treasury. This ensures that there are always enough resources available for growth.

I am an early Zclassic investor, what does this mean to me?
   
Anyone who held Zclassic prior to the block 110,000 chainsplit was allocated a 1:1 amount of Zen automatically. Simply import the Zclassic private keys into the new Zen wallet after the launch to redeem your tokens. Bittrex credited everyone who owned Zclassic at block 110,000 with an equivalent amount of Zen.
Are full nodes going to be incentivized with block rewards?
Anyone that runs a full node with additional requirements will qualify for the Secure Node reward and participates in the network node funds allocation program will receive their share of 10% of the coinbase rewards. The Secure Node System development is funded by the Horizen treasury.
JOIN US!!
Horizen is a system of products, services, and businesses built around an enabling technology stack employing zero-knowledge proofs and a core set of beliefs.
As a distributed blockchain system with both public and private transactions, private messaging, fully encrypted communications, and a social and governance model designed for long term viability, Horizen will contribute to the human right to privacy and provide the necessary networking infrastructure for people to securely collaborate within a borderless ecosystem.

Horizen and IOHK R&D Partner!

(https://i.imgur.com/beNIS7w.jpg)

The research projects will be lead by Prof. Roman Oliynykov, a cryptographer, IT researcher, and lecturer.  Prof. Oliynykov’s team will handoff the prototypes and provide guidance to  InfoPulse, a software engineering firm assisting the Horizen engineering team with the implementation of the two research projects. InfoPulse is contracted directly with Horizen. Horizen production implementation date is not yet available.

The first component of the IOHK research project is to implement a custom version of IOHK’s reference treasury model for efficient decentralized resource allocation and community-driven preference adoption in governance.

The second key component of the IOHK research project is a core protocol upgrade to the Horizen blockchain to address one of the primary issues in the blockchain and cryptocurrency space: Scaling.

Exclusive Interview With the Co-Founder of Horizen


(https://i2.wp.com/blockpublisher.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/hdhd.png?w=593&ssl=1)

Quote
    What is the project’s main focus right now?

Our main focuses right now are in delivering high-quality products that make using our ecosystem much simpler, we’re constantly improving efficiency of our mainchain, and we’re building a decentralized sidechain system. We also have R&D maturing in governance with an on-chain Treasury voting system, and with a comprehensive protocol upgrade to a blockDAG for massive scalability.

I had heard of ZenCash before but I honestly had no idea Horizen was related to it. I'm a big fan of privacy coins so I'll check this out.

Horizen previously known as ZenCash extended its brand on 22nd August 2018.

We aren’t calling it a rebrand because we are not departing from our past.  While crafting our new brand we wanted to keep our ZEN heritage close, of a peaceful project in a fast-moving industry. The unique play of words and spelling of Horizen and keeping the cryptocurrency ZEN allows us to keep our heritage and reflect our ambitions of remaining on the frontier of both technology and social innovations.
