Privacy-protecting digital currency

Visit Zcash

Zcash is a digital currency focused on privacy. It uses end-to-end encryption to protect user privacy and operates as a decentralized protocol, meaning funds are controlled by the holder rather than a bank. The project states it is faster than Bitcoin with transaction fees typically amounting to only a few cents. Development is funded through a decentralized ecosystem of developers paid to add features and UX improvements.
