Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has addressed the challenges facing Zcash, a pioneering privacy-focused cryptocurrency. In a recent discussion, Hoskinson praised Zcash for its foundational role in cryptographic privacy but noted its current limitations, particularly its lack of programmability. While Zcash has developed frameworks like ZEXE to enhance functionality, it remains a fixed-function ledger, lagging behind more adaptable blockchain platforms.Hoskinson also identified liquidity as a significant issue for Zcash, exacerbated by tightening global regulations that make it difficult for privacy coins to be listed on exchanges. To address these challenges, he suggested a dual-token model, where one public token facilitates exchange listings and a separate private token manages confidential transactions. This approach aims to balance privacy with regulatory compliance, potentially enhancing Zcash's market access and adoption.
