Zcash seems to be a great project ..
Yeah, I thought same 2 yrs ago.
And then I realized........ Roll Eyes

What did you realize exactly?
this project is great
i mean they are pioneers in the zero knowledge tech
backed by strong investors since the beginning
recognized in top exchanges (more than i personally expected)
i can find many good things to say about this project
the only "bad" thing is the price..
still not that bad in my opinion
the whole market suffers right now..

Zcash seems to be a great project .. Recently I heard Electric Coin Company Exits ZCash Foundation Trademark Agreement..
https://btcmanager.com/electric-coin-company-zcash-foundation-trademark/?q=/electric-coin-company-zcash-foundation-trademark/&
this is good news.

I really hope that ZCASH returns to the price of $ 800 like last August 2018, because right now I'm HODL some ZCASH which I bought in August 2018

Coinbase UK Dropping Support for Cryptocurrency Zcash

https://www.coindesk.com/coinbase-uk-dropping-support-for-cryptocurrency-zcash

Guys, tell me, please, ZecWallet - is this ZCASH official wallet, supported by ZCASH developers?
https://github.com/ZcashFoundation/zecwallet/releases
Is it as safe as BitcoinCore?

Yes, that repository belongs to the Github of ZCash foundation and ZCash foundation is made up of ZCash developers. It should be safe.
Thank !
And which addresses can I use, T or Z?
I used to read that using Z-addresses can cause problems.

Don't use Z addresses until and unless you really want to keep your balance private. Z-addresses are fairly difficult to handle.

Therein lies the problem, having both T and Z addresses:

(a) complex and error-prone
(b) kills privacy because people don't use stealth addresses

Not only that, these jokers forced you to move all your coins to T for sapling...
Long story short... ZEC has zero privacy = chainanalysis will expose everything...
ycash does not address any of this... sell into pump.

Down 25-30% versus BTC in 2 weeks since the Pump...
Devs have already drained $300-400 million and will draining this bitch to zero..
zk algos are ubiquitous on multiple platforms today (see something like self-replicating zk VMs with REN)  Smiley

Nice! You were quite accurate with your dump prediction on the YCash fork.

NO WAR ! Glory to Ukraine !
Funny pic i'd have to admit

But seriously.  If you wanted a no dev fund or low dev fund there's always Ycash.  And I wouldn't touch that with a 10 ft pole in comparison to zcash.

Yes he's probably rich but worked hard and deserves it.  If you made groundbreaking cryptographic advancement then you do deserve good pay.

At the same time I'm also concerned about zcash underperformance in valuation.  Is he just continuely going to be dumping his zcash on the markets suppressing down the price for many years in order to fund development?  If so that's not good for investors and we need more transparency of how much zcash they are selling on the markets per month to fund development. Or they need to put a monthly cap of how much they sell on the markets in order for the markets to absorb those cost in a healthy way.
Do you remember the strange (to put it mildly) situation when the wallet developer (forgot his name) had to ask the crypto community for money for food, because Zuko and his "foundation" did not pay him a salary?

As far as I can see, the money of the "fund" goes first to satisfy the gluttony of the founders, and not to programming.

Support your devs! Nobody works for free.

They've done a good job and nobody else could do it better.

Miners will not code zcash and a network is worthless without good devs.

Zooko Wilcox, CEO of Electric Coin Company (ECC) – the firm behind the privacy-focused cryptocurrency zcash – has made an appeal for the creation of a new “Dev Fund” to support the future operations of the privacy-focused cryptocurrency.

The move comes after much debate over the continuation of the project’s controversial “founders’ reward,” which took centerstage at Zcon1 and even drove a portion of the zcash community to fork off into a new network, Ycash.

ZEC would probably finish as failed experiment. Sadly, but it is what it is...
With mimble-wimble, there's no need for outdated ZKsnarks anymore.

What about zkstarks? Mimble wimble is a good alternative to the outdated privacy tech but isn't it will become the next outdated tech when another platform will develop a new tech that was better than mimble wimble?
this story will always continue and competition will always there.

Bitcoin is outdated badly yet worth the most. You need reliable tech that has been battle tested. New tech for a coins is not better as they are more vulnerable to exploits
