Encrypted Memos is one of the best features of Zcash.

Here the total is 100%.

That is, 1/5 of all people who have used cryptocurrencies at all put privacy at the forefront, and then everything else.

They believe that #crypto is a confidential payment method, but they do not know that is absolutely not true!

They need Zcash!

The smarter AI gets, the more it will fight against ZKPs by promoting transparent & immutable blockchains…Drive to Survive.

Big tech is pushing encryption everywhere and many crypto people are happy broadcasting their financial transactions and make them public record for eternity…🤔

The Ethereum community rejoices: "ETH wallet addresses are now searchable on Google." 🎉👏🏻👏🏻

Everyone start googling their addresses and most people will do it from their authorized browsers.

Next move: googling assets by first and last name, and then mass adoption of Zcash.

I probably don't need to say this, but having a public transaction graph of every payment everyone has ever made to anyone is a *goldmine* for authoritarian regimes. Bitcoin blazed a great trail, but you can't run an economy on it, irrespective of proof-of-work.

It’s not really about the size of a community, it’s about its GRIT.
An independent developer with his custom firmware added shielded Zcash addresses to the Ledger Nano S hardware wallet:

"NanoS! Putting shielded ZEC on a Nano S was a true exercise in code golf. 512b of stack is NOT much."

It’s not really about the product, it’s about the culture behind the product.

i feel a little weird blithely skeeting money stuff, but i guess if this is going to replace twitter then we need to use it not just for shitposting but also for standard self-promotion, so i'm gonna keep doing it until this replaces twitter or i get bored.

Data privacy legislation is my top tech policy priority. It’s popular, it’s bipartisan. If it was up to me we’d get it done tomorrow. I can't promise anything but I'm hopeful, and I won’t stop fighting to get it done.

bottom line is nobody has the power to kick other people off the internet. but infrastructure providers can decide what is allowed on their infra and set rules there.
