What is Zcash?

Zcash (ZEC) is a decentralized open-source cryptocurrency that offers transaction privacy through the use of zero-knowledge cryptography. This means that every transaction is shielded, and it hides the sender, the recipient and the amount of the transaction on the blockchain.

However, ZEC is not completely anonymous. Every payment is visible on the public blockchain – only the participants in the transactions and the amounts are hidden.

    Zcash is also available on CoinDeal now as a result of cryptocurrency voting. I think I will invest one day because of pretty good opinions about ZEC, seems to have great potential
