- Zcash will introduce quantum-recoverable wallets within a month to combat future quantum threats.
- The privacy coin aims for full post-quantum status in the next 12 to 18 months, ahead of major cryptocurrencies.
- ZEC has increased by over 73% in the past month, driven by Multicoin Capital’s significant investment.
- Integration with Electric Coin Company’s mobile wallet facilitated $600-700 million in cross-chain swaps, enhancing Zcash’s privacy features.
