There's many problems that Zcash solves, including obviously privacy, simplicity, a roadmap for quantum resilience, scalability, some degree of lindyness given it's been around for 10 years, and got a good security track record. Balaji

Kyle Reidhead: "I'm not bullish on Zcash at all." "The problem with Zcash is there's no financial services." "It's literally just nothing, just a blockchain." Privacy matters - obviously. But it's going to be a layer built into Ethereum, into every L1, into DeFi itself. "Is Zcash going to be the blockchain for that? No, I don't think so." FT Kyle Reidhead | Milk Road Andy The Rollup.

1994 vs 2006 '94 is obviously a big one, but I've been a bit rude about 2006 in the past. It's got some REALLY good classics.. it's just that there isn't that MANY of them.. anyone going for that over the earlier year this week though? 7pm tonight KISSTORY if you're about 🙂

There have been whispers of Bitcoin hodlers swapping BTC for Zcash 🤔🔏 Why? Because some Bitcoiners want to be able to transact with more privacy. BUT Bitcoin can still have NATIVE privacy and scale. Eli Ben-Sasson | Starknet.io explains how ZK-proofs and OP_CAT hold the key 🗝️👇 We caught up with the 'Godfather of ZK' on Cointelegraph's Chain Reaction show this week for a deep dive into the promise of zero-knowledge technology for Bitcoin and beyond. Ben-Sasson, who co-authored the ZeroCash protocol whitepaper and helped found Zcash 🛡️, said that Bitcoin can still have native privacy and infinite scalability if developers can agree to reinstate OP_CAT, a Satoshi-era OP_Code that Bitcoin's creator disabled in 2010. It turns out that Zcash's resurgence in 2025 could be the catalyst for Bitcoin's privacy push. "I hope that one consequence of this would be that the Bitcoin community becomes more open to things like OP_CAT and OP_STARK so that it can have post-quantum security, best privacy, best scale and programmability for this beautiful hard asset that is Bitcoin." Ben-Sasson said. "The technology is ready. All you need is a soft fork adding nine lines of code that Satoshi actually introduced. It's called OP_CAT. It's very, very easy. If there's a will, there's a way. In this case, it's a very simple way to give all of that goodness to Bitcoin itself." You can watch our full conversation with Ben-Sasson in the 🧵👀📺

This week, #Zcash dropped nearly 50%! (In short, it’s had an #inflation bug for more than 4 years and now there are more rats scurrying from the ship than a Hantavirus hoax cruise) I’ve always been highly suspicious of Zcash, and with good reason: In short, Zcash is basically short for Zionist Cash, and they actually had a seed round done by the CIA, the developer buying privacy focused cryptocurrencies. Zcash has raised 500,000 from In-Q-Tel, the venture capital arm of the US CIA. You also might want to know that Zcash's headquarters are six minutes away from the CIA headquarters. Then there's Zcash and the Epstein files... including the email correspondences between Madars Virza, a co-founder of Zcash, and Jeffrey Epstein. Those emails reportedly involved tax documentation and income related to Zcash linked work along with a gift package sent to Epstein.

🚨 President Trump is pushing for reflecting pool vandals to get the FULL 10-year sentence, and he's citing a statute HE signed that has ZERO good behavior loopholes "There's a statute that I signed when I had my first term that if you do anything to hurt statues or monuments, fountains... you go to jail for 10 years and there's NO shortcuts. In other words, it's not five years for good behavior. It's a very tough statute."

VanEck CEO Jan van Eck on CNBC: “There’s something else going on within the Bitcoin community that non-crypto people need to know about. And that is: ultimately, VanEck has been around before Bitcoin. We will walk away from Bitcoin if we think the thesis is fundamentally broken. We don’t right now, but you always have to look at the underlying technology and the crypto. What the Bitcoin community has been asking itself is: Is there enough encryption in Bitcoin, because quantum computing is coming? And secondly: Is there enough privacy in Bitcoin? And so a lot of Bitcoin OGs or maxis have been looking at Zcash. Zcash is a token. It’s sort of related to Bitcoin with a lot more privacy. The kind of garbage that we got about Bitcoin four years ago was: ‘It’s used for all bad illicit behavior.’ But now everyone kind of realizes that when you move money around on the Bitcoin blockchain, you can see it. You can see it move from one wallet to another. And a lot of people are looking for more privacy.”

.mert on why Zcash's privacy isn't privacy for its own sake “In Zcash's case the privacy isn't privacy for its own sake — it's to enable a better monetary property for that asset. One thing you might think of is fungibility” “If a coin has history and you can see its provenance, there is a case in which you will not be allowed to use that coin because of its history. Whereas cash is devoid of all information. If I give you a $5 bill, you don't see anything about where it has been” “One thing people might have missed in the Ironwood upgrade is that it is now quantum recoverable. You've probably heard the panic about Bitcoin's quantum readiness — Zcash is quantum recoverable today, and quantum proof toward the end of autumn” “A store of value fundamentally requires a low entropy channel. Entropy is defined as surprise — you don't want to be surprised. You want to be able to just store it somewhere, and that's that” “Zcash is also scaling: 75-second block times going to 20 seconds, with a target of a few thousand TPS”

Binance CEO CZ 🔶 BNB says the crypto industry is too transparent: "I think right now the crypto industry is too transparent. It's actually extremely easy to track crypto funds. The blockchain is a public ledger. If you couple that with a few centralized exchanges, KYC information, you can track most of the transactions pretty accurately. So I think right now there's a lack of preserving of privacy." "For example, if your company pays everybody in crypto and if you get one payment today on the blockchain, you can just trace to the address that paid you and see how many addresses that address paid in the last week, then you can figure out everybody's salary. That's a privacy issue." "Another example, if you pay for a hotel [in crypto], then people will know that you're going to stay at that hotel, which for some people may create security issues. So there's little problems like those that are not solved yet."

Elon Musk: There's no need to have a degree. We're just looking for evidence of exceptional ability. “There's no need even to have a college degree at all, or even high school. If somebody graduated from a great university, that may be an indication that they will be capable of great things, but it's not necessarily the case. If you look at people like Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, Steve Jobs, these guys didn't graduate from college, but if you had a chance to hire them, of course that would be a good idea. So, we're just looking for evidence of exceptional ability, and if there's a track record of exceptional achievement, then it's likely that that will continue into the future.” Interview with Auto Bild TV, November 5, 2014
