Zcash, on EVM rails. zZEC is backed 1:1 by ZEC in a public reserve. Trade it, earn on it, launch with it at

🐐 Our mainnet preview is live.

Real chain. Real trades. Gas paid by us.

A trading terminal for the Zcash ecosystem, where every trade buys back and burns ZZEAL, and pays you back in Zcash.

Early preview. Shipping all week. Here's what's working today 🧵

[Ryan (“Phunky”) Haczynski @ThePhunky1]

I beg you to read the post below from @KkonMcC

I honestly do not think enough people have really looked at what Zeal is building

Imagine FOMO app but without the high fees

Imagine getting rebates on every trade paid in zcash:native

Imagine every trade buying back and burning robinhood:0x9fa1c5e90a11294f83a9f135b81ad1b537a5ffdc

Imagine trading every token on Robinhood while generating ZCash rewards

EVERY

SINGLE

TIME

Inevitable 🦓

G'ZEAL.

The team spent the entirety of the night buried in https://t.co/mvDt3rIgsn working through everything you all reported. Here is what changed.

But first: with just 3 tokens tradeable, you have put over $70,000 through the platform and earned more than 15.5 million zats in zZEC rewards.

→ P/L was counting the money you added as profit. That was the big one. The leaderboard finally says what it actually means.

→ Your trade now shows up in the feed the instant it confirms, instead of waiting on the indexer. Lag there went from about 57 seconds to 3.5.

→ The chart, your positions and the market cap now update together. They used to trickle in one at a time, which made the same page look like it was showing three different truths.

→ You can shield your wallet address without going fully private. Your name and your trades stay up, the address comes off.

→ Private profiles used to open a blank page. Now they say what they are.

→ Token links actually open the token now.

→ Positions are sorted by what they are worth, and show the market cap you entered at next to where it is now.

→ Your cash updates after you add funds without needing a refresh.

→ If you accepted the display name we suggested at signup, the Save button would not let you continue. Genuinely sorry to anyone who bounced off that one.

→ Fewer scary red banners for a single slow network call, better light mode, sharper icons, and some sensible limits so nobody can flood the feed.

Most of this list exists because someone replied "hey, this looks broken". Please keep doing that, it works.

Also. We are also extremely hiring.

@OGlamozda Zcash + Robinhood = @ZEALZdotfun

@ThePhunky1 It's over. sorry Ryan.

We hated your profile pictures so much we removed the ability for you to choose one.

Everyone on https://t.co/mvDt3rIgsn now has a hand drawn zebra. Assigned by the chain, yours forever, not up for debate. New banners too.

This wasn't supposed to ship yet but your pictures looked so bad we expedited this.

You're welcome.

@musinronsya ZATS are portions of ZCASH.

You can redeem them for zZEC our wrapped ZCASH backed 1:1 by real ZCASH and send to your transparent zcash address or keep your zZEC on robinhood.

[ZEAL 🛡️🦓 @ZEALZdotfun]

Traders are already starting to accumulate their ZATS.

We'll always be airdropping active users, top traders, top referrers, liquidity providers, and users posting zonks throughout the week!

Hey XCOM.

Shipping update from the https://t.co/mvDt3rIgsn mainnet preview. Thanks to everyone who has been trading and sending bug reports, nearly all of this came from you.

Gasless trading is live for external wallets. If you sign in with your own external wallet and hold no ETH, you can still buy. You sign twice, send nothing, and we pay the network fee. Above about $30 it is fully sponsored. Below that there is a small trade fee that only covers the gas, and it shrinks to zero as the trade grows.

Every trade buys back and burns $ZEAL and pays you a rebate in zZEC, and the rebate finally lands in the right place: relayed trades were being credited to the relayer, so your name, your position and your zats were going somewhere else. Fixed, and it backfills itself.

The leaderboard and the feed only count trades made here. Top earners ranks by zats. Private traders are properly anonymous everywhere and are no longer clickable.

Trade tickets tell the truth now. Price impact is shown before you sign, slippage failures say they were slippage and that nothing was spent, and a $3,000 order into a thin pool warns you while the number is still editable instead of failing after a signature.

Also fixed: the sign-in button that silently did nothing, market caps that lagged the chart, portfolios reading $0.00 while holding real tokens, and a feedback form that had been built and wired up but never given a way in. It is in the left rail now.

More updates shortly

I think this is the part most people are missing.

ZEC already has the privacy narrative.

What it needs now is an ecosystem built around it.

If $ZEAL can become the place where new projects launch, liquidity forms and people actually trade using ZEC, then it’s doing something much bigger than being another launchpad.

It’s making ZEC usable.

And that’s why I’m starting to see ZEAL differently.

Yesterday I thought 100M was already aggressive.

Now I’m thinking 1B might not be crazy if the ZEC ecosystem really takes off.

https://t.co/xeULYPVgo1 is creating an amazing ecosystem.

[ZEAL 🛡️🦓 @ZEALZdotfun]

Nice to see people dropping zonks and volume picking up fast.

See the private traders in the feed? Know who they are?

Well neither do we.... and that's by design.

[ZEAL 🛡️🦓 @ZEALZdotfun]

hey xcom.

Lots of people jumping into our mainnet preview.

We want your feedback, suggestions, and bug reports.

we added a feedback & bugs section to your sidebar on desktop and eco tab on mobile.

[ZEAL 🛡️🦓 @ZEALZdotfun]

What he said. 🛡️🦓

[Kyle McConnell @KkonMcC]

Excited to have gotten our mainnet preview live. We'll have virtually the entire Robinhood chain tradeable by the end of the night.

Most people agree ZEC is the trade of the cycle. Not many people are making it usable.

That is the whole point of https://t.co/BpjDQizDnN. Zcash, in the trenches.

We are going at retail consumer apps head on. Same speed, same feel, one difference: everything you do here pays you in actual Zcash. Not points. Not an IOU. Real ZEC, redeemable to a transparent address whenever you want.

Gasless. Bring your own wallet or let us make you one. Multiple addresses. We took the parts of the new consumer apps that are actually pulling retail into crypto, and kept it sharp enough for people who have been here the whole time.

Same privacy thinking runs through the product.

Private profiles are live now, for when you would rather not broadcast your book. Private trades are next, for the ones you are quietly ashamed of. Publish what you want to publish. Keep the rest to yourself.

Launchpad goes live, likely tomorrow.

Launch a token straight from shielded ZEC, or from zZEC, our 1:1 wrapped Zcash on Robinhood Chain. Every launch pays holders Zcash reflections and buys back and burns $ZEAL. Fully customizable v4 hooks, whatever tokenomics you want, and a whitelist for https://t.co/BpjDQizDnN users so snipers do not crush your launch in the first block.

Once zZEC liquidity is deep enough we go multichain. Trade anything, from one place. iOS app after that.

Retail is walking in the door right now. We want the first privacy coin they touch to be Zcash, and we want it to feel like the trenches, not a whitepaper.

ZCASH is going to be the biggest winner of this cycle. We intend to be a key player in leading the charge and introduce newcomers to ZCASH sooner rather than later.

Shielded trades, what's next...

Private profiles hide you from other users. The next step hides you from the chain.

Shielded trades: size and timing of your fills no longer a public broadcast. Zcash-grade privacy applied to execution.

Plus cash deposit rails, more markets, and the launchpad.

[ZEAL 🛡️🦓 @ZEALZdotfun]

It's a preview, on purpose

Real chain, real money, real rewards, and we're shipping fixes every single day this week.

Things will change under you. New markets, faster fills, new features mid-session. That's the plan, not the problem.

Something broken? Tell us. We fix it same day.
