Why I'm against ZSAs: 1. Aleo, Penumbra and others already have shielded assets with little success. 2. For any actual ZSA use case, a smart contract chain will always be a better fit. 3. Expands Zcash's attack surface and complicates the codebase for years to come. 4.

Rex @R89Capital · 2026-01-18T19:56:15+00:00

ZEC with the worst price action I've ever seen @mert do something

This is the first time in years privacy coins have more real catalysts than other narratives Privacy Coins Q1 catalysts: $ZEC: Zashi 2.0 launch, CashZ wallet launch, PoS testnet progress, Governance reset, Ztarknet devnet launch, Grayscale ETF decision $FIRO: Spark Assets

Here we go, I made zecgift. Gift Zcash to your friends and family with just URLs! You can send them zcash on email, telegram, whatsapp, and it is completely non-custodial! See the demo, for link and how it works

Mizer @MizerXBT · 2026-01-18T10:51:56+00:00

I’m also long $LTC (shared some days ago). So I’m like pair traded $LTC long $ZEC short.

Daniel @daniexbt · 2026-01-18T05:47:22+00:00

When $ZEC was at $50, people never thought we would hit $700+ But to everyone’s surprise, Zcash did exactly that And now, people don’t think it can hit $10,000+ Guess what Zcash will do? Exactly that

JAKE @JakeGagain · 2026-01-18T05:00:01+00:00

$XMR > $ZEC There is no one that can argue against this Monero will always be the #1 privacy token Adding more here on this pullback

Frank Braun @thefrankbraun · 2026-01-18T14:22:56+00:00

Zcash fulfils the initial promise of Bitcoin: electronic cash. Sovereign money with real privacy („ledger indistinguishability“). A believable scaling roadmap on L1. A community of smart builders. We won’t get a third chance.

Previously, ZEC's CEO and the entire R&D team collectively resigned, and the R&D team even plans to develop and build a new project themselves. Due to this negative news, ZEC once dropped 35%, breaking below the lower boundary of the rising flag pattern, as well as the long-term

Zcash.me @zcashme · 2026-01-18T18:42:05+00:00

We're still early and I'm feeling generous ... What's your zcash.me?

Vik Sharɱa @vikrantnyc · 2026-01-18T18:34:44+00:00

Alright it seems i have the zcash torch. I’d like to send it to one of these people: @BlueMoon_2099 @Vladcostea @nextiscrypto @vinibarbosabr Reply with your address! (Preferably a @cakewallet address hehe)

Matthew @GoodTexture · 2026-01-18T03:43:01+00:00

ultimate bull case for $ZEC is the US Government declares Aliens are among us, and their advanced technology can hack the entire financial system, except Zcash, which then bids to infinity

1. Scalability: yep, ZEC doesn't currently have the throughput capacity matching your definition: . Sean Bowe & Company's Project Tachyon is intended to fix that! But I agree with you that your score sheet should reflect current reality, not future plans.

I AM THANK YOU, ANON

Tom Howard @_TomHoward · 2026-01-18T18:22:04+00:00

Pretty neat way to send ZEC with just a private link! (Warning: this is susceptible to man in the middle attacks so only use for small amounts you don’t mind losing)

Daniel @daniexbt · 2026-01-18T11:53:02+00:00

Very high probability $ZEC will trade above $1,000 in the next 3 months

LA𝕏MAN @Theblockvlog · 2026-01-18T07:40:28+00:00

Caught $ZEC? Caught $XMR? Caught $MEMES? Caught gaming tokens? Caught $DUSK? If you haven't caught any, then what altseason are you even waiting for?

Anonymist @Anonymist · 2026-01-18T19:03:50+00:00

This is COOL! Send Zcash as a gift card. Private, simple, no signup required. ZecGift is a fully client-side web application that lets you create and send Zcash gift cards to anyone. Well done @bajpaiharsh244

Maxime Desalle @maxdesalle · 2026-01-18T18:21:44+00:00

Privacy is not a feature, it's transparency that is a bug. It follows that Zcash isn't a "privacy coin", it's other cryptocurrencies that are surveillance coins. Zcash

I've passed the zcash torch to @nextiscrypto . Used @cakewallet of course.

EarlyAdopter @earlyadopterz · 2026-01-18T05:34:28+00:00

Here is the latest chart for Zcash. For bullish signal we need to break above 416 and 430. If we break below 390, expect more downside towards 313. $zec $cyph

Boss( @zooko ), I’m particularly fond of the 4th track on the album put out by @zcashbrazil . #ZEC x.com/i/status/19908 …

zcash ux has improved by miles compared to years ago when i first started stacking zec. the number of wallets now offering zcash swaps and auto shielding is what real progress looks like. this time it’s @cakewallet keep stacking those zats !

Great for small ZEC gifts and tips

If someone asks you why you think $ANYONE is a future multi billion dollar privacy coin, tell em' this: @AnyoneFDN | $ETH $ZEC $XMR

zooko @zooko · 2026-01-18T18:24:23+00:00

So by the rule of "no future plans, only current reality", you have to switch that to a for ZEC. Hopefully my fellow Zcashers will see this and realize that activating the Network Sustainability Mechanism is urgent because future economics attracts current investors.

Matthew @GoodTexture · 2026-01-18T23:33:25+00:00

zec immediately bouncing off $380. let's see if it touches the trendline at $375

Daniel @daniexbt · 2026-01-18T12:22:24+00:00

Just buy $ZEC

JW @JW100x · 2026-01-18T22:32:33+00:00

There are very similar characteristics in both instances with very similar asymmetric opportunities ZCash - good moat of shielding ZEC which effectively corners supply, anonymizes token set Umbra - great moat of shielding Umbra which effectively corners supply, while also

Vik Sharɱa @vikrantnyc · 2026-01-18T13:49:39+00:00

Zcash or ANY coin should be bigger than the wallets that support them. And I’m saying this as a wallet maker.

Whale Watch by Moby @whalewatchalert · 2026-01-18T23:16:24+00:00

Here is the latest chart for Zcash. We broke below a major trend line. In order to be bullish, 394 needs to be broken. $zec $cyph

$PUNC @cryptitalk : Crypto news: $XRP printed a massive 2,300% weekly candle against the Iranian Rial. Meanwhile, ZEC dropped 35% after its CEO & R&D team resigned. Keep an eye on @SentientAGI as $SENT's TGE is expected next week with initial unlock details confirmed.
