What is Zcash?
Zcash is a proof-of-work payment network that supports both transparent addresses and shielded pools. Shielded transactions use zero-knowledge proofs so the network can validate conservation of value without exposing selected sender, recipient and amount data on the public ledger.
Privacy is optional and depends on wallet support, pool choice and user behavior. Moving between transparent and shielded addresses can reveal information, while exchange policies and jurisdictional restrictions can affect access independently of the protocol’s cryptography.
Zcash is not private by default in every wallet and transaction; transparent transfers remain publicly traceable.
