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With mimble-wimble, there's no need for outdated ZKsnarks anymore.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 Mimble wimble is a good alternative to the outdated privacy tech but isn't it will become the next outdated tech when another platform will develop a new tech that was better than mimble wimble?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Bitcoin is outdated badly yet worth the most.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

"Friendly Fork" YCash brought me bad luck and loss of  btc.
Droped it as a toxic contagion. In vain the ZCash Foundation supported YCash

Privacy Cryptocurrency Zcash Prepares for "Friendly" Fork



https://www.coindesk.com/privacy-coin-zcash-will-soon-undergo-its-first-friendly-fork-meet-ycash?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=coindesk&utm_term=&utm_content=&utm_campaign=Organic%20

In about five hours, the privacy-oriented cryptocurrency Zcash will spawn a new blockchain network called Ycash.

It’ll be the first of its kind to boast a near-identical codebase to the Zcash blockchain but function as a separate network and de facto competitor.

First announced in April, the effort is spearheaded by long-time Zcash supporter Howard Loo. Loo described in a Zcash forum post that Ycash was a preemptive move to resist future community decisions that may extend Zcash’s system of developer funding known as the “Founder’s Reward” beyond a promised 10 percent cap of total token supply.

Yup!
One of my worst investments and definitely worst in 2019
It's so poor satoshi-wise that if BTC goes to 20k usd, Zec will still be 100 usd (0.005 BTC). And I am not joking at all.  Roll Eyes

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

Zcash was designed to automatically siphon off a portion of miners’ profits for creators, including ECC CEO Zooko Wilcox. So far, this funding has been donated to create the independent Zcash Foundation, and support ECC contributions to protocol development, marketing campaigns, exchange listings and corporate partnerships.

ZEC is probably the worst designed coin I've ever seen...
Even with a 20% tax they didn't have a proper client until recently...
Even a simple tx creates change accounts so you end up with a mess of dust...
It so much suck that my losses are very limited due to the massive sucking  Cheesy

ZEC is gonna get wiped out by dead simple 100% shielded coins like ARRR...
Or when zk-snarks gets rolled out on top of ETH and other platforms.

Does ZCASH have better anonymity than Monero? Can I keep ZCASH on hardware wallets, like Trezor or Ledger?

ZCash has the functionalities of both, transparent and private addresses. The transparent addresses work publicly, while the private addresses work as good as Monero.

Yes I store ZEC on Ledger Nano S device.

The fact ZEC can be transparent or not, is a good signal for any future regulation.

I am sure that in the future it will be free from all that will be a very great altcoin, currently there are not many coins like ZEC and this will be more solid for a long time.
