Zcash (ZEC) - Privacy-Focused Cryptocurrency
Zcash (ZEC) is a decentralized, open-source cryptocurrency that emphasizes privacy and selective transparency of transactions. It was launched in 2016 and is based on the Zerocash protocol, which improves upon Bitcoin's privacy features.
Key Features of Zcash
- Shielded Transactions: Uses zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs) to enable private transactions.
- Selective Transparency: Users can choose between shielded (private) or transparent (public) transactions.
- Fixed Supply: Like Bitcoin, Zcash has a capped supply of 21 million coins.
- Decentralized: Operates on a peer-to-peer network without central authority.
How Zcash Works
Zcash transactions can be either shielded (private) or transparent (public). Shielded transactions hide sender, receiver, and amount, while transparent transactions are visible on the blockchain, similar to Bitcoin.
Zcash vs. Bitcoin
| Feature | Zcash (ZEC) | Bitcoin (BTC) |
|---|---|---|
| Privacy | Optional privacy (zk-SNARKs) | Pseudonymous (public ledger) |
| Supply | 21 million | 21 million |
| Block Time | ~2.5 minutes | ~10 minutes |
Use Cases of Zcash
- Private financial transactions.
- Secure payments with optional transparency.
- Decentralized applications requiring privacy.
Mining and Supply
Zcash uses the Equihash mining algorithm, which is ASIC-resistant, favoring GPU mining. The total supply is capped at 21 million ZEC, with a halving mechanism similar to Bitcoin.
