Thoughts on Zcash?

[Seville]

ZEC will prolly beat XMR after the stunt fluffypony did.. Personally I prefer XMR

I wouldn't rely on it for privacy. And then there's the 20% founders reward. And then there's the Trusted Setup. And then there's the company.

All of this is anti-crypto. That's why the price tanked and why no serious investors will touch it.

Thanks for sharing your opinion. I will stay away from zcash and buy some other crypto. I do not know why it have been pumped on this week. Maybe some whales did this, right?

Who knows, where goes money after 'z_sendmany'? Help says it puts change to a different taddr. But how to control it?

With today's announcement that Alphabay will accept ZEC as payment it will most likely pump. However it seems like it will see some correction now as the altcoin bubble may have burst. There's plenty of time till July 1st, but I think I'll start saving up my ZEC if price falls down a bit more.

The coin had an unexpected rally doubling their valuation in a short trading time but they could not sustain the rally for a longer time and that looked like a pump and dump even for a moment unless i heard some companies are tying up with them to create better solution,with the price of bitcoin still rallying we need to monitor when the next rally will be.

Why ya lately a lot of altcoin in the pump, if it keeps happening may be many people suffer losses.

Is Zcash what "Zero Coin" eventually turned into? And is it also what's turning into Zen Cash? It's hard to keep up with all of it lol.

ZCash is Zcash which has a ticker of ZEC. Nothing has changed since the beginning. But there are other coins that followed based on Zcash.

ShadowBrokers started using ZCash.

Man these guys are retarded! Why would anyone use ZCash instead of ZClassic? Fuck the 1% and the fucking millionaires club! This founders reward is complete bullshit and nobody should support it! Fuck ZCash and fuck the 1% by using ZClassic!

Oh yeah this is how a typical ZCash user looks like:

It is because the ZCash price is low.

Hi guys,

What are your thoughts on Zcash and its zero-knowledge proof construction? I've read that there are already a few big investors backing up this project.

Cheers!

I hope that zero knowledge could bring positive impact to cryptocurrency world. But we need something more like what is the plan for this coin to be success. I think investor will more attracted because of this.

Ive thought this coin wouldnt last because of that founders reward and it ridiculous they do still love to invest on zcash because theres still movements and potential that can able to make them money.When you do mine zcash it wouldnt really be worth at all.Just put up money that you can afford to lose though.

I agree with that. With the foundation reward, developers will work harder.

That could be the reason the ZEC is the highest of all the altcoins.

Is there an ANN page for Zcash at bitcointalk?

[Liquid71]

with 20% founders reward, new untested crypto, and weird tweets by zooko claiming they can unmask anyone who tries to use zcash for ransomware makes me wonder if he's just talking shit or if being based in the U.S. they were forced to put in a backdoor. I mine it and sell it for XMR, which has it's issues too but for privacy coins seems to be the best of the bunch. Zcash also has alot more coins to be mined so demand will need to keep up with inflation. Since my GPU rigs are more profitable mining zcash I'd like to believe in it long term but I have too many reservations so I'm betting on XMR for now.
Greg Maxwell did a great breakdown of privacy coins and had lots of good things to say about zcash, worth reading if you invest in zcash, XMR or lol DASH https://cryptoinsider.com/blockstream-cto-greg-maxwell-discusses-monero-zcash-privacy-focused-altcoins/

Think so, but there was no public ICO only special people were selected to invest and they get 20% or whatever of all coins mined..I would have like to have seen a way to have the public get a chance to invest in it's development but that's not how it was done. The 20% of mining rewards is supposed to prevent early investors from being able to dump their coins all at once, which is a unique feature, still without letting the public participate it doesn't thrill me knowing a small group of selected people get 20% of coins mined.
