Operating as a decentralized and open-source digital currency, Zcash is unique because although transactions are logged on a public blockchain, the identities of the sender, recipient, and the amount involved in transactions remain concealed. This level of privacy is achieved through sophisticated cryptographic protocols, making it particularly appealing for users who prioritize discretion.
