Implement ZCash Z-Addresses, fully shielded transactions just like Monero

Koben · December 11, 2020, 2:55pm

Hi everyone!

I see that Monero XMR has private transactions and are tradeable in Bisq using the sender’s private key, or viewing key.

ZCash Z-Addresses are private transactions that also can share the private key and/or viewing key as necessary to confirm the transaction took place.

So the question is, is Bisq developing support for ZCash Z-Addresses? How is the progress going and when in the near future can we see this Altcoin address enabled in Bisq?

Thanks

Hi Koben

Bisq is not currently adding more altcoins at present.

> _This is a Bisq Network proposal. Please familiarize yourself with the [submis…sion and review process](https://docs.bisq.network/proposals.html)._ As https://github.com/bisq-network/proposals/issues/153 did not lead to any result I suggest that we put all asset listing on hold. Maintainers have the freedom to add any asset if they consider it interesting but by default no new assets get added to Bisq until we have sufficient resources to deal with it. All issues or PRs regarding assets are getting closed. Motivation for that step is laid out in https://github.com/bisq-network/proposals/issues/153.

I am sure they will in the future and privacy alts are a good match, however, currently resources are being places in other directions.

Zcash is listed currently, but I don’t know what type of addresses does it accept.
I thought they already used the private ones, did something change at Zcash lately?
