DROPS E35: Core DAO 🔶 - Bitcoin yield without giving up your Bitcoin Rich is one of the initial contributors to Core DAO, the leading Bitcoin scaling solution. He's also a long-time Zcash holder and early backer of Z Protocol , a new privacy chain built on Core's Satoshi Plus consensus. We talk Bitcoin yield, financial privacy, AI surveillance, and why the next big move in crypto might not be where most people are looking. We talk about: - How Core DAO lets you earn yield on Bitcoin by time-locking it - without ever giving up custody - Why borrowing against Bitcoin makes sense now - OG Bitcoiners rotating to Zcash - what "transition" actually means and whether it's bad for Bitcoin - Z Protocol as the DeFi layer for private money - Why AI has made financial surveillance trivial - and why that accelerates privacy adoption - How Agents are leaving full financial fingerprints - and why privacy needs to be default on at the chain level And much more...

Running parallel to the rise in interest has been the rise of Zcash 🛡️, now even with $ZEC treasury companies forming like Cypherpunk. In episode 2 of Not Dead Yet, Robert Baggs speaks with Eli Ben-Sasson | Starknet.io. Eli is a long-time researcher of zero-knowledge proofs (the technology that underpins Zcash), the co-inventor of Zerocash protocol and ZK_STARKS, and the co-founder and CEO of StarkWare (BTCFi arc) 🥷. Timestamps: 00:00 – Intro 01:23 – Why is privacy important to you? 03:24 – Why is a lack of privacy holding blockchains back? 04:05 – Privacy is normal, so why isn’t it already normal in crypto? 06:10 – The dangers of CBDCs 09:00 – “If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear” 12:53 – What are Zero Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) and why are they important? 19:26 – What is Zcash and how does it work? 21:14 – Why is privacy suddenly trending? 23:15 – What happens if Bitcoin doesn’t address its lack of privacy? 28:03 – Can we stop a dystopian future?

Ep. 16 | Free The Money | Zcash & ZODL: Why Encryption Wins in an AI Driven World In this episode, I’m joined by Tony Margarit 🛡 , former Finance & Ops at the Electric Coin Company (ECC), the original team behind Zcash 🛡️ and the Zashi wallet. Tony breaks down what’s happening inside the Zcash ecosystem, why the former ECC team launched Zcash Open Development Lab, and what they’re building now with their newly rebranded wallet, Zodl. We talk about the bigger mission: making privacy normal and scaling private digital cash to billions. Tony explains why Zcash isn’t “corporate controlled,” and how decentralized development actually works across multiple teams and contributors. We also discuss Tachyon, a major upcoming upgrade designed to dramatically improve Zcash’s scalability and prepare the network for billions of users. We get into the product leap that matters most for real adoption: world-class UX + real utility. Tony explains Near Intents and why it’s a major unlock, enabling more seamless swaps across ecosystems so users can keep value encrypted while still interacting with other assets. Tony also explains CrossPay as a key bridge to adoption: the ability to pay friends or vendors in the currency they want while keeping your own holdings private. We cover why Zcash still supports transparent transactions, how that helps with exchange access and adoption without weakening shielded privacy, and why Ledger/Trezor shielded support could be a major catalyst for growing the shielded pool. Finally, we go deep on the AI angle — blockchain surveillance, wallet deanonymization, and why encryption (not just obfuscation) matters as AI gets more powerful. We wrap with how zero-knowledge proofs could reshape identity, governance, and everyday verification online. Sign up for ITrustCapital with this link for $100 funding bonus. See why people are opening a tax-advantaged Crypto, Gold & Silver IRA for their future: 00:00 Tony’s Background: From CPA to Crypto 4:44 Why Privacy Clicked During COVID 08:03 What Happened at ECC & Launching Zcash Open Development Lab 11:15 ZODL Wallet: UX, Utility & Why It Matters 12:18 Near Intents & CrossPay: A Major Unlock for Zcash 14:40 Shielded Pool Growth & Hardware Wallet Catalyst 18:57 Transparent vs Shielded Transactions (Why Both Exist) 21:39 AI Surveillance & Blockchain Deanonymization Risks. 25:11 Obfuscation vs Encryption 26:00 AI Agents & Micropayments 27:58 Tachyon: Scaling Zcash to Billions 31:04 Crypto, Taxes & Regulatory Friction 38:04 Zero-Knowledge Proofs Beyond Money 41:50 Privacy is normal
