About Zcash (ZEC)
Zcash is a cryptocurrency that launched in 2016. It uses zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs) so users can send shielded transactions that hide the sender, receiver and amount, while the network can still check that the transaction is valid. Users can also choose transparent transactions that work like Bitcoin's.
ZEC has a maximum supply of 21 million coins and is mined with proof of work. The Electric Coin Company developed the original protocol, and the Zcash Foundation also supports its development.
