## What is HUSH?
## What is Hush?
![Logo](doc/hush/hush.png "Logo")
HUSH (originally Zdash) is a source code fork of [ZCash](https://z.cash/) and has
it's own genesis block. It is not a chain fork of another coin. 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.
Hush implements Extreme Privacy via blockchain tech. We have our own
genesis block. We are not a chain fork (copy) of another coin. We are based on
Bitcoin code, with sophisticated zero-knowledge mathematics added for privacy.
This keeps your transaction metadata private!
This software is the HUSH node and command-line client. It downloads and stores
the entire history of HUSH 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.

This software is the Hush node and command-line client. It downloads and stores
the entire history of Hush transactions; depending on the speed of your
computer and network connection, it will likely take a few hours at least, but
some people report full nodes syncing in less than 1.5 hours. A competing privacy
coin takes over 24 hours to sync their full nodes because of Sprout Transactions, lulz.
