Zcash (ZEC)

Z-cash was launched in October 2016 with the intention of providing enhanced privacy for its users. It started as Zerocoin, and then became the Z-cash protocol, which is an extension of the Bitcoin protocol. Z-cash operates a lot like Bitcoin, with a public blockchain and transparent transactions. However, it also includes an option for selective disclosure, if users would prefer their transactions remain private. Currently, Zcash only has official support for Linux.
