Z-Cash (ZEC)
Z-Cash (ZEC), a decentralized cryptocurrency focused on privacy/anonymity, using the zk-SNARK zero-knowledge proof technology allowing nodes on the network to verify transactions without revealing any sensitive information about those transactions.
ZEC's main advantage is its' optional anonymity, allowing a level of privacy unattainable with regular, pseudonymous cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin/Ethereum. A common misunderstanding, is that cryptocurrencies are not anonymous, but rather pseudonymous; (they do not explicitly reveal the identities of their users, each user has their own public address or addresses which can be traced back to them via the methods of data science/blockchain forensics.
Z-Cash transactions, on the other hand, still have to be relayed via a public blockchain, but unlike pseudonymous cryptocurrencies, ZEC transactions by default do not reveal the sending/receiving addresses or the amount being sent. There is an option, however, to reveal this data for the purposes of auditing or regulatory compliance.
ZEC transactions can be sent in two ways: transparent & shielded:
Transparent Transactions: Work in about the same way as in BTC, they are sent between public addresses & recorded on an immutable public ledger (the blockchain). All essential information about these transactions is available online for anyone to see, including the sending/receiving addresses & the amount sent.
Shielded Transactions: Leverage the technology of zero-knowledge succinct non-interactive arguments of knowledge, or zk-SNARKs, in order to enable completely anonymous transactions to be sent over a public immutable blockchain. The fact that the transaction has happened is recorded on the ledger, but the sending/receiving addresses & amount sent is not revealed to the public.
