Zcash is the sign of a new privacy era

Zcash gave me a true hope in the future of people's independence. The coin provides a truly excellent privacy protection that I cannot deny that it is above the satisfaction. Also, the economics behind it ensures its value remains profitable to the investors or miners. There is also some drawbacks such as centralization, no smart contract, illegal involvement, or business incompatibility. However, time is the greatest tester. For me, I believe in its bright future.

Pros
  • - Zcash users can choose to public their transactions or hide it away to protect their identities. No one can trace the recipient address, sender address, or amounts of Zcash that were sent, etc.
  • - Because it is impossible to track the records of transaction, every Zcash coin has a hidden identity; therefore, they can be use without any concerns of illegal aspects even if they were involved in some malicious activities,
  • - ZCash is supported by a strong community of crypto enthusiasts, professionals and developers who were inspired by the nature of privacy and decentralization. The decentralized votings for every development of Zcash show that this is a truly community-driven cryptocurrency that everyone needs
  • - Zcash team aims to retain the democracy of the cryptocurrency itself so its structure is resistant to the specific mining equipments
  • - Big names such as Vitalik Buterin or Edward Snowden find the coin very interesting when it comes to utilizing innovative protocol like zk-SNARKs
  • - The economics of this coin is very good as it is deflationary
  • - The team behind it contains a lot of extraordinary developers
  • - The technologies behind Zcash were adopted to build a privacy layer for JP Morgan Company
Cons
  • - Because of its nature, Zcash usually involves in illegal activities such as tax evasion, smuggling, or terrorism sponsorship
  • - The anonymous transactions is not good for business as it will require some efforts to verify the transactions
  • - It does not support multi-sign wallet as its protocol only provides transaction hash for one private-key
  • - Centralization is the biggest problem with this coin. It is backed by a US company who put tax on the minted coins. The rate is unknown and this is not transparent.
  • - It does not support Smart Contract

ZCash is an internet digital currency that allows fast and cheap payments no matter where and from where you send money. - The currency is designed to provide strong privacy protection. Thanks to the so-called shielded addresses (or shielded transactions) it is possible to hide…

Zcash Complete review

Zcash is maybe the most popular blockchain network and coin that focuses mainly on the privacy and security aspects. Being built on the original Bitcoin base structure, this cryptocurrency handles one of the main issues with cryptos in general and offers its users the ability to keep their anonymity while selectively complying to auditing and regulations. Zcash was known under the project name Zerocoin. Matthew Green, Ian Miers along with many more who were at the Computer Science department…

Pros
  • Zcash brings to the table is anonymity. This is achieved thanks to the Zero-Disclosure protocol that does not need to decrypt information in order to confirm a transaction
  • Frequent updates and dedicated development team and Superior encryption second only to DASH
Cons
  • The main con of zcash is that due to its privacy aspects, not many wallets can support it. Thus, currently there are no mobile wallets that can offer privacy cryptocurrency support.
  • Zcash needs more security updates, this is due to most of the transactions being done transarrently as the privacy aspect is not by default, it is chosen

At the core of Zcash technology are zero-knowledge proofs, which allow transaction data to be validated without revealing information about the amount and the parties involved. Zcash uses specific zero-knowledge proofs called zk-SNARKs (zero-knowledge succinct non-interactive arguments of knowledge). Zcash is built on strong science and audited meticulously by third parties. It is an open-source protocol, built by a security-specialized engineering team, and originally based on Bitcoin Core's…

Pros
  • Shielded Zcash transactions are completely private. Like Bitcoin, Zcash transaction data is posted to a public blockchain; but unlike Bitcoin, Zcash ensures your personal and transaction data remain completely confidential. Zero-knowledge proofs allow transactions to be verified without revealing the sender, receiver or transaction amount. Selective disclosure features within Zcash allow a user to share some transaction details, for purposes of compliance or audit. Zcash also allows for transparent transactions, to accommodate for wallets and exchanges that don’t support private transactions. Zcash addresses are either private (Z-addresses) or transparent (t-addresses). Z-addresses start with a “z,” and t-addresses start with a "t."
Cons
  • Not much activity needs more P.R.

Zcash's technology isn't without limitations. Most often cited weaknesses that the Zcash team is actively working on fixing in the future are Bitcoin, which had its genesis block mined in 2009, was the first digital currency to scale. While many early adopters took interest in bitcoin because of its promise of privacy, the digital currency failed to provide this benefit, as interested parties can examine the transactions recorded on bitcoin’s blockchain to get a sense of exactly what a person…

Pros
  • Zcash is a digital currency with strong privacy features. Transact efficiently and safely, with low fees, while ensuring digital transactions remain private
Cons
  • ou can also browse options in alternative lists such as the Zcash community site. Currently, many of these third-party options have limitations in their support for

if you want privacy to protect transactions, you can use Zcash as an alternative.

Pros
  • Zcash has its own features of existing cryptocurrency, by applying the Zerocoin Protocol to blockchain technology. Zcash will provide strong privacy protection in making transactions. For cryptocurrency miners currently available, Zcash is more profitable. by using the EQUIHASH algorithm the miners can use CPU or GPU miners.
Cons
  • we know that zcash type digital currency "zero knowledge proof" this means that someone will be difficult to track a person's transaction thoroughly. the bad effect is if it is used as money laundering or money laundry.

For miners, this cryptocurrency is the most productive and keeps the lead. ZEC is favorable for long-term investment.

Pros
  • Zcash - cryptocurency with an open code, has appeared in 2016; holds leadership together with coin Dash in respect of the maximum anonymity and decentralisation.
Cons
  • The high level of anonymity of a coin and untraceability is not only advantage, but also a lack; in a case, in case of an absolute prohibition, ZEC can undergo to the first to sanctions.

Zec's fundamental philosophy is consensuality. Currently the Zcash Company (CEO: Zooko Wilcox) is effectively leading development of the science, the protocol, and the reference client, as well as public communications and many other important tasks. In the long run the newly formed Zcash Foundation is expected to take over some of these roles, especially education, consumer protection, and the advancement of science. For now they say that they intend to keep letting the Zcash Company do its…

Pros
  • Privacy, security and ease of transactions without the pocknosing effects of a third party or the government.
Cons
  • The monetary base going back to the founders had better utility if been used to push the project forward. This is a stumbling block to me, and a scenario that needs to be addressed.

One unique aspect of Zcash is its selective transparency. Certain transaction metadata in the blockchain is confidential by default, but can be disclosed to specific parties such as auditors or regulators. The ultimate goal is to satisfy both the openness and privacy that social structures require.

Pros
  • The most accepted and easy to trade crypto in the current market, with sufficient resources online for everyone to learn more about. Has a large community and unlikely to disappear suddenly or found as spam which have happened to other altcoins
Cons
  • The artificial IPO type of launch lead to an inflated trading price where the company investors sold their first coins at a fat profit. From a technical trading perspective, this is bad. a US company is behind Zcash and the company has imposed at the code level a 20% tax on all coins mined to pay for developpers and provide returns for investors. This is contrary to the spirit of digital currencies.

Zcash’s open cryptocurrency project uses a zk-SNARK protocol. This is a new cryptographic zero-knowledge proof protocol that ensures privacy, anonymity, and fungibility of Zcash coins. However, privacy and anonymity are not implemented by default in Zcash, as it also has a transparent transaction functionality like Bitcoin.

Pros
  • Privacy, anonymousity, and peace of mind that one wouldn't get detected when transferring out a huge amount of Currency on the blockchain.
Cons
  • Less option to probe users in cases of theft and mal-usage of technology.

Zcash is a peer to peer (P2P) cryptocurrency like Bitcoin. But unlike Bitcoin, its sole priority is to focus on private, anonymous, and fungible transactions that Bitcoin can’t-do. Zcash was forked out of Bitcoin and launched in October 2016, and it was previously known as Zerocoin. It is based on a special cryptographic protocol that shields a sender’s information, a receiver’s information, and the amount transacted between the two parties.

Pros
  • The ability to cloak how you send money and your identity is of great importance and this is certainly a sale point for Zcash and their community
Cons
  • Criminals and bad actors might see this as a getaway for their activities, and this doesn't work well for the mass supporters if crypto

Zcash provides encrypted memo fields that offer an opportunity of delivering messages to the recipient of the transaction that only a view key holder can see. This can be used to deliver simple messages, or such things as payment code sand confidential or commercial information.

Pros
  • Zcash is a encryption currency based on a decentralized blockade designed to make transactions more personal than the Bitcoin block. ZEC (Zcash token) transactions, such as Bitcoin's, are published in a public Blockchain, but unlike Bitcoin.
Cons
  • Zcash allows users to explicitly disclose private information. Zcash provides two types of keys: "View Key" and "Spreadsheet". While the latter is used to spend, the first one is used to allow some people to see information about your transactions. Review Keys can be used to audit or share information without being revealed anywhere.

Great project, making our lives even more anonymous, but because of its purposes Zcash has some problems with laws and govts.

Pros
  • Zcash was created to make transactions anonymous. It is much more quickier than Bitcoin and also better scalable. Zcash uses advanced algorithms to make users anonymous.
Cons
  • It looks like govts don't like the idea, they are trying to get down ZCASH. Also the ability to view user transactions with a view key shouldn't have been created. as we know government might force developers or users to reveal it's view key which will defeat the main purpose of Zcash

Zcash or ZEC works with an advanced algorithm. This one is making your trades being anonymous to everyone. The realization of this innovation was possible due to the special proof of construction called zk-snark. This was designed with the main purpose of improving the Bitcoin’s privacy. The zk-snark cryptographic technology is checking the validity of information without publishing any confidential details.

Pros
  • A champion opposition of Monero and a worthy challenger. Atleast I now have the leisure of sending money without traces whatsoever
Cons
  • They face a huge backlash from numerous govts and laws
