Upcoming Bitcoin Fork

As mentioned in the roadmap, the community is glad to announce that HEXXCOIN will be used to extend the functionality of bitcoin by offering it Zerocoin anonymity. The fork between HEXXCOIN and Bitcoin will occur in Q3 2018 to result in the unique coin BitcoinZeroX (BZX)

BitcoinZeroX will be awarded to Bitcoin and HEXXCOIN holders at a ratio of 1:1. i.e you get 1 BZX for every HEXX or for every BTC that you own. BitcoinZeroX will be superior to Bitcoin private in terms of anonymity because it is based on the zerocoin protocol and not the ZK-snarks protocol as explained above.

BitcoinZeroX will also have masternodes and will be a project of its own with its own Whitepaper that will be released in due time. We are aware of the way similar forks have proceeded and of the sharp decline of the price of other coins following such forks. The HEXXCOIN community would like to assure you that the development of HEXX will continue with all due care after the fork has proceeded and that we have prepared a number of measures to limit any major sell-offs of HEXX after the fork. (Passing hint: Bitcoin is not the only currency that can benefit from a zerocoin security fork!)
