Why Zcash (ZEC)?

In a world where surveillance and cybercrime plague Web3, the ability to transact with privacy protections is crucial. That’s where privacy coins like Zcash come in with built-in protections that protect your metadata from being used against you.

Zcash (ZEC) is a decentralized, open-source cryptocurrency. ZEC adds crucial privacy features lacking in traditional cryptocurrencies. Its primary innovation is zk-SNARKs (Zero-Knowledge Succinct Non-Interactive Argument of Knowledge) a form of zero-knowledge proof that allows transactions to be verified without revealing any information about the sender, receiver, or transaction amount. This eliminates metadata which can be collected to identify the payer, amount, and recipient.

Purchase NymVPN with ZEC
