A shielded transaction in Zcash hides the sender, recipient, and amount, but the network doesn’t make every transaction private automatically. This detail is what actually determines the $ZEC experience.

There is a transparent pool that resembles transactions on open networks, and a shielded pool that hides the transaction parties. The choice between them is up to the user, not the slogan.

The value moving between the two pools can link a shielded party to a transparent one. So the real question isn’t whether you use Zcash, but which type of address you use and where the balance comes from.

If you view $ZEC as a privacy tool, the most important thing is to know what type of address you’re dealing with. Privacy may be reduced if funds move between shielded and transparent addresses unintentionally.

In short: privacy in Zcash depends on shielded transactions, not just the name of the coin.

Do you expect shielded transactions to become the default option in $ZEC wallets? 👇
