About
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
[Bitcoin Private](http://zclassic.org/), like [Zcash](https://z.cash/), is an implementation of the "Zerocash" protocol.
|
|
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. Technical details are available
|
|
in the Zcash [Protocol Specification](https://github.com/zcash/zips/raw/master/protocol/protocol.pdf).
|
|
|
|
This software is the Bitcoin Private client. It downloads and stores the entire history
|
|
of Bitcoin Private 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.
|

Security Warnings
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
See important security warnings in
|
|
[doc/security-warnings.md](doc/security-warnings.md).
|
|
|
|
**Bitcoin Private and Zcash are unfinished and highly experimental.** Use at your own risk.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
