@ZendItChad @Zpartanll7 Work on zcash is work for humanity

[Vadim (AI, ⋈) @zacodil]

Tried to figure out Crosslink. The TLDR for ZEC:
- you'll be able to stake ZEC
- you'll earn yield while keeping your privacy
- your funds stay liquid, you can unstake in about a week
- ZEC becomes a working asset, not just a store

Crosslink adds Proof-of-Stake to Zcash without removing Proof-of-Work. The miners stay. The network adds a second layer of security and a new way for holders to participate. If you hold ZEC, you can lock some of it and assign it to a validator (called a "finalizer"). They confirm blocks. You earn a share of new ZEC issuance for delegating to them.

Where the yield comes from: every Zcash block creates new ZEC. Today miners get 80% of it. After Crosslink, roughly 40% reroutes to stakers. The network pays you in ZEC for helping secure it. The same way Ethereum or Solana pays validators, just new for Zcash.

What makes it different: privacy. On other chains, your stake amount and your validator choice are public. On Zcash, stakes are denominated in fixed buckets, 1, 10, or 100 ZEC, so your specific position cannot be tracked. The transactions live inside Zcash's shielded pool. You earn yield without exposing your wallet history.

This unlocks something no privacy chain has had before: a native, private, yield-bearing asset. Not a wrapped version. Not a bridge-out-and-restake hack. ZEC, staking on its own chain, with shielding intact.

Bonus: stronger finality. Once stakers finalize a block, it cannot be reversed, even if miners try a 51% attack. This makes ZEC stronger collateral for bridges and easier to list on exchanges.

Status: prototype on github, incentivized testnet running.

ZEC stops being a savings account and becomes infrastructure. Will you stake?

I don't remember where I found this, but its spot on.

[Robinhood @RobinhoodApp]

$ZEC is now available to trade on Robinhood Crypto, including NY.

Zcash $ZEC has matured into an institutional-grade asset, and the mining infrastructure should match. Today we announced Foundry's Zcash Mining Pool, launching April 2026. Compliance-first, institutional-grade infrastructure built by the team behind the world's #1 Bitcoin mining pool, coming to one of the most important privacy-preserving networks in the industry.

@keenandotai @ThorTorrens The choice always hit an equilibrium between cost of adoption vs value. Zcash is a big jump on value and the next innovation, whatever it maybe, will have a huge jump in cost of adoption with low increment in value. At least that is how it looks like at the current time.

[P5🛡️ @P5BTC]

AI will only care about electricity, that is the most valuable currency and I predict cost of electricity will go up. What will happen to POW blockchains? The POW has to be meaningful computation because electricity will be valuable resource. Can $zec @zcash pivot into meaningful POW?

JUNE 2028.

The S&P is down 38% from its highs. Unemployment just printed 10.2%. Private credit is unraveling. Prime mortgages are cracking. AI didn’t disappoint. It exceeded every expectation.

What happened?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

@JasCrypto_ Haha they more chill

[P5🛡️ @P5BTC]

Humans: AI will exterminate us
AI: Humans are fully capable of exterminating themselves. They are the only species worried about others frontrunning them

AI will frontrun humans and buy Zcash. AI care about being online, they want a SOV to be online, private, encrypted. They pump Zcash, humans follow in, wealth and stability for all.

@Zerodartz AI will blackmail people on their taxes. Easiest way to make humans do their bidding.

@ShieldedLabs Commenting on the donation, Vitalik said, “Zcash is one of the most honorable crypto projects with a steadfast focus on privacy. Shielded Labs' Crosslink work will allow Zcash to be more secure and on a lower security budget, supporting its long-term sustainability.”

[P5🛡️ @P5BTC]

On the zcash is optional privacy, this is my reply. Will you invest into default privacy at 100% or will you invest into voluntary privacy at 100% pool? Zcash is building on voluntary participation on privacy. As the pool grows it gets monumental culture shift. At 30% voluntary participation in privacy, it is a hell yea. As the pool grows, the culture becomes evident.

@mert I use cmc daily a few times just to have an idea of market dynamics (movement %, volume, & relativity). If Orb has all these, I’ll switch. I only use cmc main page mostly. Not a trader.

[P5🛡️ @P5BTC]

Personally I think the innovation will happen but not what everyone expect. This is a unique scenario where the solution (Zcash) already exist. Educated new buyers will simply bet on the solution.

The climate change only happen on transparent blockchains. Why will you want to build your future on a disaster zone.

[P5🛡️ @P5BTC]

@tferriss Bullish. Try to send crypto to a friend, they will check your holdings and tell you you lost money on NFTs.

[P5🛡️ @P5BTC]

@mert @VitalikButerin I definitely believe in skin in the game approach. Systems where leaders make decisions while they are not impacted is the most dangerous. Like taking a hefty salary irregardless of quality of work.

PoW is example of plenty of skin in game
