BitcoinCash Zero (BCZ)BCZ
Not a Bitcoin chain split — a new chain built from snapshots of BCH, BSV and two other coins. Listed as a fork-wave airdrop.
A January 2019 Zerocoin privacy coin built from snapshots of Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin SV, GravityCoin and BitcoinZero, pitched in the wake of the hash war.
The wiki's angle: BCZ pitched itself to both sides of the BCH-BSV hash war by snapshotting both chains.[1]

Announcement
The thread opened on 18 December 2018 says BitcoinCash Zero “will be forked from: GravityCoin $GXX, BitcoinZero $BZX, BitcoinCash ABC $BCH and BitcoinCash SV $BCHSV”[1]. It frames the coin against the ABC-versus-SV hash war and says the GXX team would make snapshots “with their incredible KNIFE technology” on 4 January 2019[1]. Holders of any of the four coins could claim the new coin[1].
Design
The thread calls it “the first ever BitcoinCash privacy fork (Full Zerocoin protocol)”, with PoS, PoW and masternodes[1]. Its coin info lists Lyra2Z, a 150-second target spacing and a 4MB block size[1]. It said the ratio and supply “will be updated and announced when officially calculated”; this wiki has not verified the final ratios[1]. BitcoinZero, one of the snapshotted coins, has its own article[1].
