Ycash v4.4.3

Getting Started

Ycash is a digital currency. For more information, see https://y.cash.

For a comparison of Ycash to Bitcoin, see https://y.cash/fact-sheet.

This software is the Ycash node. It downloads and stores the entire history of Ycash transactions; depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process could take a day or more once the blockchain has reached a significant size.

Ycash is experimental and a work-in-progress. Use at your own risk.

Ycash is a chain fork of Zcash. For most topics, you can rely on Zcash-related documentation, including the user guide for zcashd.
