But are you serious you all ? How could a ZCash be worth 500$ and do not even talk about 5000$ ? Its sole feature is a something that is branded as anonymous but it does not even work and require the developpers. Beside that, they have an outrageous developper tax on each block created. Its current price is very representative of its real value.
People didn't think Bitcoin would zoom to $1000+, did they?
If the developer tax is what spooks you, then you should look at ZCL (ZClassic). If others think on lines similar to you, ZCL could replace ZCash.
