The main and test networks are configured to use parameters that are currently low-memory but usable with the basic solver; they will be increased once the solver is optimised. The regtest network is configured to have extremely low memory usage for speed. Note that Bitcoin's double-hasher is used for the difficulty check. This does not match the paper, but is simpler than changing the block header serialization. Single hashing is kept for the EquiHash solver because there is no requirement on execution time there, only on memory usage.

Where do I begin?
We have a guide for joining the public testnet: https://github.com/zcash/zcash/wiki/Public-Alpha-Guide
What is Zcash?
Zcash is an implementation of the "zerocash" protocol. Based on Bitcoin's code, it intends to offer a far higher standard of privacy and anonymity through a sophisticiated zero-knowledge proving scheme which preserves confidentiality of transaction metadata.
Zcash is unfinished and highly experimental. Use at your own risk.
