What is Zcash (ZEC)?
Zcash (ZEC) is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that uses trustless zero-knowledge proofs to enable fully encrypted transactions while maintaining blockchain transparency and security. It was the first cryptocurrency to implement zero-knowledge encryption for private peer-to-peer payments, addressing the fundamental privacy gap in traditional cryptocurrencies that expose transaction details publicly.
Zcash offers a fixed supply of 21 million ZEC with a halving schedule similar to Bitcoin, and users can choose between transparent public transactions and shielded private transactions through Unified Addresses. The network currently operates on Proof-of-Work and is evolving toward Proof-of-Stake through the planned "Crosslink" upgrade to enhance security, scalability, and energy efficiency, withHalo within its Orchard shielded pool to verify transactions without revealing sender, receiver, or amount information.
Zcash launched on October 28, 2016.
