right now you can make lot with those coins for a few days if not weeks . just a thought ,have to ask it's probably not a good idea but im doing good with my few 470 and don't need to turn on my script miners but would to add to the income while it lasts.

We can't add it for mining since it isn't scrypt, but I may be able to add it for payout. Would you be interested in earning it with your scrypt hashrate?

me yea why not would give me a reason to use them . but it would depend on how much it would pay i would think good even for my low 167 mh worth of hash which still pays good iIF have it converted to btc why i said as pay out, I know it's not script based . my small gpu/cpu farm is making according to nicehash all most 20 bucks a day and it's converted to btc for now they do have a pool that pays in ZEC , let them sell it and credit my BTC address for now, it won't last long but im gonna enjoy it while it's here.
with my gpu cpu farm there now
19.73 USD/Day that's at 80 sols speed .

I will add zcash, but it will be a week or so until it's ready. The coin has a different API than our other coins and I'll have to program a custom interface.

cool i will mine it as a payout and hope others do the price dropped a lot but it's still worth more then ETH .
1 zec= 1.09 btc
kind of holding for now .
Hope it still has a = or better value to ETH in weeks, if not it's back to eth farming with my gpu farm and script mining for either btc or ltc and trying to buy a x11 miner.

if this helps any it looks like right now
149 sols is = to 152 MH or so , and that's a about 9 bucks a day .give or take a few up or down . so i guess it depends more on prices .
prices just changed some place, on nicehash it shows like this .
Scrypt 192.36 MH/s 0.00 MH/s (0.00%) 0.0128 BTC/Day
Equihash 129.65 Sol/s 0.45 Sol/s (0.35%) 0.0121 BTC/Day

I just looked into zcash more, and I found it is completely backwards compatible with the standard bitcoin API. Because of the compatibility, I don't need to make any code changes, and I should have it online today. I will let you know when it is ready.

awesome at 2.57 btc a coin it may be worth it right now . I may even turn some of my older sha 256 miners and mine PPC or DigiByte
and exchange it with ShapeShift . it's all most worth it to mine direct BTC with old gear .

Zcash has been added!
Right now, you can only use addresses beginning with t; please let me know if not being able to use z addresses is a significant problem and I can add support.
