To all crypto, apply the Hal Finney test:
"If you see a proposal for an electronic money system, check to see whether it has the ability to preserve the privacy of financial transactions the way paper money does today. If not, realize that the proposal is designed to harm, not help individual privacy."

ZEC == BTC undersells it.
Imagine a Bitcoin that actually worked as money: private, uncensorable, quantum secure, and used every day. That asset wouldn't be worth what Bitcoin is. It'd be worth orders of magnitude more.
That's the Zcash thesis. Think bigger.

JUST IN: Zodl's (@zodl_app) new sync engine, Slipstream, is live for all users.
In controlled benchmarks, a wallet restore on iPhone 16 Pro went from 16m 55s to 43 seconds. A 2018 iPad went from over an hour to under five minutes.

It’s wasn’t long ago that many were calling the project dead. 2023 was especially dark.
Now Zcash feels like the most alive thing in all of crypto. New teams, voices, skills, ideas, tooling. All shipping. Amazing!
Zcash is teeming with life.

One thing that makes this work where the turnstiles only partially worked before: we're forcing the *circulating supply* of ZEC to exist only within safe pools. Any hypothetical counterfeiting is snuffed out, and Orchard transactions automatically redirect through the new pool.
Together with @zodl_co, @ZcashFoundation, @ValarGroup and @ShieldedLabs, we're advocating for a network upgrade that would make ZEC's circulating supply auditable, providing additional reassurance that no counterfeiting occurred in the Orchard pool before this week's bugfix.

The Zcash engineers are my family, and everything good in my life traces back to Zcash. I couldn't live the rest of my life knowing I committed that kind of betrayal.

Extremely unlikely that someone has actually exploited it, hackers always dump the coins as soon as they can. We'd see it go to zero within a day if someone did that.
