What is Zcash?
Zcash (ZEC) is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency launched in 2016 that runs on its own proof-of-work blockchain. It uses zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs) so users can send shielded transactions that hide the sender, receiver and amount, while transparent transactions work much like Bitcoin. ZEC is used for payments and has a maximum supply of 21 million coins.
