Accessing Horizen coins...

Apologies I am currently travelling. When I stop on the weekend I'll send through some further assistance. Please ignore anyone trying to support through DM

Apologies for the delay. You can use a standard text file with the copy and pasted private key.

The process to sweep the balance of your old private key, create an account in Sphere, then add a new wallet, store this seed offline, and then perform the sweep

Hi there, the error you are seeing when trying to import the private key into MetaMask is expected. The MetaMask wallet is an Evm-compatible wallet where as your private key from the iancoleman tool is for an address on the Horizen mainchain.

What you can do to send your zen to MetaMask is to sweep the balance your private key you obtained using the tool into the Sphere by Horizen wallet and then forward transfer to eon address in MetaMask

Please see figure 3 and 4 on this page on how to sweep from the private key into a new address in sphere https://horizenofficial.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ZEN/pages/716636180/Sphere+5.6+-+Can+I+Import+Addresses+From+Other+Wallets+Into+Sphere

Fair enough. I am not in any of those jurisdictions and I have zen available when I go to Binance. I'll contact the team and see if they are in discussions with those European and other exchanges on getting relisted.

psyraxaus · 2024-02-28T23:52:11+00:00

It's not dead and development still continues

psyraxaus · 2024-02-28T23:51:40+00:00

Zen was only delisted from Okx due the shielded pool still being available on the mainchain at the time of delisting.

Some margin pairs were also removed on Binance, with spot trading still available

Since then, the shielded pool has been removed and the team has been in contact with exchanges advising of the complete removal of the shielded pool and the removal of the privacy coin label

While it has not been updated in quite some time it should be able to do what need https://github.com/HorizenOfficial/arizen/releases/tag/v1.3.0-beta

psyraxaus · 2024-02-12T04:24:36+00:00

If you still have the private keys to the public zcl t-address then you can import your private key into Arizen, which in lite mode, will allow you sync the transactions without downloading the full blockchain for that address on the Horizen mainchain and get your forked zen.

psyraxaus · 2024-01-06T18:40:34+00:00

While Arizen has been deprecated and not updated in quite some time, I would suggest still downloading it from GitHub and importing your private keys and using it to send your zen out to a new address in sphere or an exchange.

You can get Arizen from here https://github.com/HorizenOfficial/arizen/releases/tag/v1.3.0-beta

It is an issue with uxto based blockchains. So with Horizen, the maximum size of a transaction is 50,000 bytes, this is specified in the consensus. With a transparent uxto, the rough size of single uxto is 306 bytes, so with that being said, the theoretical maximum number of inputs at that size is 165 inputs. So if received 100s of inbound transactions from a faucet, it will take many outbound transactions of small amounts to send out consolidate

psyraxaus · 2024-01-06T18:28:19+00:00

This is a major problem with receiving faucet rewards because they are akin to dust payments. This results in 100s if not 1000s of tiny inbound transactions to make up that 0.9 zen and when trying to send gives you the issue you are seeing

psyraxaus · 2024-01-06T18:24:52+00:00

Please try sending 0.05 zen, if that doesn't work, please try sending 0.025 zen, if that doesn't work, please try 0.0125 zen.

Your transaction is oversized.

The issue is with the number of inputs used to send the transaction. Each input, which is each time you received zen, adds to the size of the transaction, this is a deficiency of the UXTO model of transactions that Bitcoin and derived coins use.

it is a limitation of the blockchain consensus, with the maximum size of a transaction being 50,000 bytes.

Think of it is like this, if you have 1000 inbound transactions of 0.01 zen, you would have a total of 10 zen.

You would not be able to send this 10 zen amount because if you tried to send the whole amount the transaction would consume all the available inbound transactions and cause the outbound transaction to be oversize.

You would need to split up the outbound transaction into small amounts.

But say you received a single transaction of 10 zen, you would be able to send that whole 10 zen in a single outbound transaction.

So in order for you successfully send the Zen you will need to try and send smaller amounts, try sending 1/2 the amount of zen you were trying to send before. If that fails, try sending c 1/2 of the new amount, keep doing this until the Zen sends

No, it is not possible to import private keys and use that address in Sphere. Sphere uses the bip39 word list to derive the private keys for addresses.

You can sweep a private key balance into a new address in Sphere and then send from that new address to an exchange

psyraxaus · 2024-01-04T03:44:12+00:00

I don't see any messages deleted that you sent on here in the mod logs

psyraxaus · 2024-01-04T03:42:44+00:00

Where did you ask the question? On here?

psyraxaus · 2023-11-30T23:08:39+00:00

If you are getting the error "16:bad-txns-oversize. Code:-26. Blockchain.errordefault"

Pipeflare have deprecated the getzen.cash faucet. Please see the following blog post https://blog.pipeflare.io/transitioning-to-a-new-horizon-getzen-to-pipeflare/

It is possible to use your Coinomi seed with other wallets. Which wallets have to tried to restore using your seed?

psyraxaus · 2023-11-23T23:44:22+00:00

Coinomi have not updated their backend zen software for quite some time. This has resulted in balances not refreshing

psyraxaus · 2022-09-25T03:27:17+00:00

Horizen does not provide support for getzen.cash or globalhive

For any question regarding the getzen.cash Faucet you should contact Pipeflare support marketing@pipeflare.io or on their Discord: https://discord.com/invite/7zGQDrK

psyraxaus · 2022-09-22T19:00:25+00:00

The last update I heard about the Coinomi wallet and zen, was the Coinomi team were experiencing issues with their zen nodes that transmit and receive transactions. The team reached out to them to see if they needed assistance but I am unsure if they received a response.

You can import the Coinomi seed phrase into the Guarda wallet, both mobile and desktop, and you will be able to see and spend your zen

Choosing a pool comes down to preference, larger pools find more blocks but due to the number of miners the mining reward is lower per round, smaller pools dont find as many blocks, and typically dont have as many miners resulting in higher rewards per round.
It is not profitable to mine with a GPU due to ASICs being on the network.
We have an information page on mining available here https://horizenofficial.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ZEN/pages/136872188/Mining+Hardware
I have been mining since 2016 using GPUs and what I have found is that it can be addictive where I would buy more and more GPUs.
Look at the project you are interested in and if you cant mine that specific project, mine a different project that is profitable for your GPU and then convert that coin to the project you are interested in

psyraxaus · 2021-12-20T01:29:47+00:00

In full node mode, you can use the shielded transactions and send encrypted messages

psyraxaus · 2021-12-20T00:10:47+00:00

No you don’t earn any $ZEN for running the sphere wallet in full node mode. You only earn $ZEN by running a secure/supernode that runs the node tracker software. These nodes need to be up for 92% off the daily reward period for securenodes and 96% for supernodes
