It's a good functional coins but the dev. The dev of this coins literally killed it.

Now imagine y buying a coins that people can have it for free and dumb their bags on y.
Privacy coins

best part about zero is no one on biz talks about it
so you know its good
privacy focused
James Ramirez
the best one hasn't been fully developed so far
hint: it will have to be a DAG + privacy coin
Julian Gomez
buy now or cry later

zero will be hero

I'll elaborate and I'll use props. Check out this link and remember that bulletproofs give ZCoin perfect recipient and sender privacy as well as remove the trusted set-up (so ZCoin has zero privacy weaknesses). Now I'll list the differences with ZCoin compared to the coins with developers that lie to you.
ZCash isn't private, you can trace people from the public to private layer unless they do manual mixing, and even if they do manual mixing you can still have a good chance at guessing which transactions came from where. ZCoin on the other hand already mixes transactions and with bulletproofs (coming out in a few months) it will be completely impossible to know anything about incoming or outgoing amounts. Furthermore ZCash private transactions take minutes to complete so it can't be used for retail transactions. Finally ZCash has no coin auditability, meaning you can't perform coin audits to ensure there have been no bugs that duplicate coins, you just have to hope no duplicate coins have been made due to a bug. Lastly ZCash is a trusted set up and I don't think they can remove that from their protocol, unlike ZCoin which is removing the trust with bulletproofs.
The next coin that likes to lie to you is Monero. Monero has much lower privacy than they tell you. Its anonymity set is actually 7, meaning the transaction can be narrowed down to being one of seven people. That being said this privacy resets each transaction so if you do multiple transactions in Monero, you will be fine, but once again, with ZCoin you don't need to manually mix, it has a high enough anonymity set, you simply mint your coins once and that's it. The last issue Monero has is forced privacy which negatively effects many smart contracts. The simplest way to utilize smart contracts on a blockchain is simply by using the publicly available data on a blockchain, Monero, which forces privacy onto all transactions make these smart contracts hard as the data is private

Moving on to Bitcoin Private. How on earth do you expect a coin with only 500,000 coins yet to be mined to be safe? I'm serious. Look at the hashrate on this coin. Since the block reward is so low, it takes very little to 51% attack this coin. Add on top of that the fact that this coin is Segwit enabled, meaning when a 51% attack occurs the miners can redirect all coins in that block to themselves, and you have a disaster. Not to mention Bitcoin Private uses the same technology as ZCash and is therefore exponentially slower than ZCoin, requires manual mixing by the user to be fully private while ZCoin requires nothing, it uses a trusted set-up meaning you are trusting people as well as code, and the private part of the blockchain is not auditable meaning if a hacker can duplicate coins on the private part of the blockchain no one will know and he can infinitely inflate Bitcoin Private into nothingness and no one can stop him.
As far as Verge goes, check the link in my earlier post. All Verge is, is a blockchain with stealth addresses run by an idiot who not only has seen multiple 51% attacks already, but decided that in 2 years time the block reward drops to zero. Meaning the only incentive for honest miners will be transaction fees which means 51% attacks will become almost free. Again, just look at the chart and see how "private" Verge is. Of course they could adopt a privacy protocol, like bulletproofs, but I don't think Sunerok is competent enough.

Monero "ICO sold" kek. And "no optional privacy" in red rekek. Go away with your shitcoin.

worth mining this with a decent laptop with an external nvidia gpu?
