<\/h2>\nANON Mandatory Update 2019<\/strong><\/h2>\nPlease note, 2Miners pool delisted ANON in late January 2019. ANON team tried to implement Dev fee model and our pool won’t support this mandatory update<\/a>.<\/p>\nWhat is Anonymous Bitcoin?<\/strong><\/h2>\nAnonymous Bitcoin is a fork (or more accurately, a spork) of Bitcoin and ZClassic that happened overnight<\/a> on September 10\u201311. Initially Anonymous Bitcoin was the official name of the coin, but after the fork developers rebranded it as ANON. Its ticker symbol is the same (ANON).<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/2miners.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/image1.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
According to the official website<\/a>, the main advantages of the cryptocurrency are decentralization, anonymity and care for the crypto community. The developers also mention MIT’s tested zkSNARK’s privacy protocol and masternodes. ANON mining is based on Equihash 144.5, same as Bitcoin Gold and BitcoinZ.<\/p>\nANON Exchange Rate & Other Specs<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe coin has been already added to the CoinMarketCap<\/a> chart.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/2miners.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/image9.png\")
<\/p>\n
The current exchange rate is $0.85. At the time of the fork, there were around 27 million ANON in circulation. The max volume will amount to 40 million ANON.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The block reward is 50 ANON. 65% of the reward goes to miners, while 35% goes to masternodes that can be created for 500 ANON each.<\/p>\n
Where to Buy ANON<\/strong><\/h2>\nYou can find ANON on multiple exchanges. There are four of them at the moment:<\/p>\n
\n- Trade Satoshi<\/a><\/li>\n
- Safe Trade<\/a><\/li>\n
- VaultMeX<\/a><\/li>\n
- Cryptopia<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
ANON Wallet<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe official wallet is available for Windows, and requires you to download the entire blockchain, which is currently about 11GB in size and takes approximately 10 hours to download. It may seem like torture, but the result is totally worth it. Here is a quick setup guide.<\/p>\n
\n- Download Java SE Development Kit 10 here<\/a> and install;<\/li>\n
- Download graphic user interface here<\/a> and unpack the files locally to a destination of your choice;<\/li>\n
- Choose first_run.bat file in the unpacked folder and launch;<\/li>\n
- Open AnonFullNodeWallet.exe file.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
The alternative to the official wallet is the lightweight Zeltrez. You can download the wallet here<\/a>, it also works well.<\/p>\nANON Blockchain Explorer<\/strong><\/h2>\nYou can view or track blocks in the ANON chain here<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/2miners.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/image4-2.png\")
<\/p>\n
The explorer may not have the best interface, but there are no other options at the moment.<\/p>\n
