ZCash (ZEC)

ZCash (ZEC) is a privacy-focused Cryptocurrency that enables users to send and receive transactions with enhanced anonymity. Utilizing advanced cryptographic techniques, specifically zk-SNARKs (zero-knowledge succinct non-interactive arguments of knowledge), ZCash allows for shielded transactions that conceal sender, receiver, and transaction amounts. For example, a user can send ZEC to another user without revealing their identity or the transaction details on the public Blockchain. Cases for ZCash include users seeking privacy in financial transactions, businesses wanting to protect customer information, and individuals in jurisdictions with high surveillance.
