TENT(https://tent.app/) is an implementation of the "Zerocash" protocol. Based on Bitcoin's code, it intends to offer a far higher standard of privacy through a sophisticated zero-knowledge proving scheme that preserves confidentiality of transaction metadata. Technical details are available in our Protocol Specification.
This software is the TENT client. It downloads and stores the entire history of TENT 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.
TENT is experimental and a work-in-progress. Use at your own risk.
This release is considered deprecated 16 weeks after the release day. There is an automatic deprecation shutdown feature which will halt the node some time after this 16 week time period. The automatic feature is based on block height and can be explicitly disabled.

gcc/g++ 4.9 or later is required. TENT has been successfully built using gcc/g++ versions 4.9 to 7.x inclusive. Use g++ --version to check which version you have.
On Ubuntu Trusty, if your version is too old then you can install gcc/g++ 4.9 as follows:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install g++-4.9
Fetch our repository with git and run fetch-params.sh like so:
$ ./zcutil/fetch-params.sh
Ensure you have successfully installed all system package dependencies as described above. Then run the build, e.g.:
$ git clone https://github.com/TENTOfficial/TENT.git
$ cd TENT/
$ ./zcutil/build.sh
This should compile our dependencies and build snowgemd
