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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This software is the Zdash client. It downloads and stores the entire history
|
|
|
|
|
of Zdash transactions; depending on the speed of your computer and network
|
|
|
|
|
connection, the synchronization process could take a day or more once the
|
|
|
|
|
blockchain has reached a significant size.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Zdash is unfinished and highly experimental.** Use at your own risk.

Building
|
|
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build Zdash along with most dependencies from source by running
|
|
|
|
|
Get dependencies:
|
|
|
|
|
```{r, engine='bash'}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install \
|
|
|
|
|
build-essential pkg-config libc6-dev m4 g++-multilib \
|
|
|
|
|
autoconf libtool ncurses-dev unzip git python \
|
|
|
|
|
zlib1g-dev wget bsdmainutils automake
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install
|
|
|
|
|

|
cd zdash
|
|
|
|
|
# fetch key
|
|
|
|
|
./zcutil/fetch-params.sh
|
|
|
|
|
# Build
|
|
|
|
|
./zcutil/build.sh -j$(nproc)
|
|
|
|
|
# Run
|
|
|
|
|
./src/zcashd
|

Deprecation Policy
|
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This release is considered deprecated 16 weeks after the release day. There
|
|
|
|
|
is an automatic deprecation shutdown feature which will halt the node some
|
|
|
|
|
time after this 16 week time period. The automatic feature is based on block
|
|
|
|
|
height and can be explicitly disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
