Zcash is a decentralized cryptocurrency that offers enhanced privacy and selective transparency for transactions. It utilizes zero-knowledge proofs, specifically zk-SNARKs, to allow users to conduct transactions where the sender, recipient, and transaction amount can remain concealed. Users have the option to send transparent transactions, similar to Bitcoin, or shielded transactions that obscure details. This privacy feature distinguishes Zcash within the digital asset landscape, providing a high degree of confidentiality.

Debates persist regarding the balance between user privacy and compliance requirements for exchanges and financial institutions.
