The PIVX Core wallet will automatically convert a portion of your piv to zPIV.  By default this is 10% but it is configurable anywhere between 0 and 100%.  It can also be fully disabled as outlined below.  See here for more information


Method 1

(GUI Only)


  1. Open the PIVX-QT software
  2. Select Settings > Options
     

  3. Uncheck the "Enable zPIV Automint" checkbox


Method 2

(GUI and CLI)


  1. Close your PIVX wallet (or stop the pivxd daemon if you're running CLI)
  2. Navigate to your PIVX data directory

Method 3
(CLI only)


  1. When starting the pivxd daemon, use the startup switch as follows:
    $ ./pivxd -enablezeromint 0


    Please note that this will only disable the automint during this session.  If the wallet starts up without this startup switch afterwards, it will be reenabled
