QuazarCoin
The new generation of cryptocurrency



Introduction

QuazarCoin (QCN) is the new generation of cryptocurrency which is based on the CryptoNote protocol and uses the CryptoNight algorithm. The CryptoNight algorithm is the most democratic today, fully ASIC-resistant and only CPU-mineable.

QuazarCoin was launched May 8, 2014 after discussion in the community, without premine or instamine.

QuazarCoin protects your data and privacy through unlinkable transactions with ring signatures.

Bounty fund

Here is the special thread - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=616281.

The main concern of QuazarCoin is usability optimization. Now QCN needs a GUI-wallet and a build for Mac OS X 10.6+.

A reward for GUI-wallet is 1000 QCN.

The QCN bounty fund is generous to active and responsible people. If you want to help with the development, marketing or anything else, PM to dev or write .
