New Coinbase 🛡️ tutorial on Zcash explains how: “bitcoin is *http* but Zcash is *https* with encryption, and digital cash that has privacy which is a human right. Zcash was created by a team of expert cryptographers.”

@coinbase Coinbase did great at differentiating Bitcoin from Zcash using the http and https analogy. I started paying attention to the Zcash ecosystem a few days ago and truly I love the story behind it. I think it has the potential to grow and become symbolic just like Bitcoin.

Then why did they spend the last decade (throughout all of which zcash existed) telling us that Bitcoin was the best thing since sliced bread? Oh, and that absolutely everything else is a "shitcoin." Crypto-bros are growing tired of BTC's poor performance and are trying to cycle the idiot masses into the next speculative bubble. Obviously, that's all this is.

The tutorial is a 3-part series from the Coinbase $ZEC incentives program from 6 years ago called Coinbase Earn. Coinbase has the Zcash shield in their profi pic and are huge Zcash supporters.

@coinbase $Zec hides everything by default. $LTC MWEB hides what matters > amounts > while keeping addresses transparent. Privacy and auditability. Optional, efficient, and scalable. The practical layer for real-world adoption.

@coinbase Zcash to $10,000

@coinbase Unstoppable private money is the future #ZEC

@coinbase Finally a CEX said ... Bitcoin is not private..it is not privacy coin, it is public layer...The only thing anonymous bitcoin has is Zatoshi; he'll probably dump BTC to buy Zcash.

@coinbase Great to see more awareness being raised about Zcash! 🔐💡

@coinbase Kaspa is king

@coinbase Wow. Quite informative 👏

@coinbase Muppet!

@coinbase now need one for $ZEN

@ThorTorrens @coinbase Im all in

@coinbase Beldex goes beyond 'https,' building a privacy layer for communications, transaction and browsing.

@coinbase Coinbase recently released this?

@coinbase 6 years ago actually on their YouTube Coinbase have always been Zcash supporters.

@coinbase zcash is ztrash and just about to zcrash.

@coinbase The real next $BTC play. Easy millionaire status if you’re paying attention.

@coinbase What if exchanges start to delist it such as monero? I’m sure its not welcome in EU (atleast)

@coinbase Where was all those tutorial when the coin was at 20-30$ ?

@coinbase The encryption angle misses the point - privacy coins solve the wrong problem. Banks already give you transaction privacy. The real innovation would be making transparent blockchains useful for normal people who don't want their salary public.
