I'll keep this short a simple. Look at the graph of Zcash right now, it has hit rock bottom. If you buy now, you'll get A LOT of Zcash to spend. Zcash has already been in the market for a long time and a lot of people own it, including vendors. Meanwhile, we see either a soft fork or a hard fork for Bitcoin and we are screwed if we have a hard fork. You can't transfer any coins for a few days at least.
This is my advice to you, take it or leave it. But the one thing I stress is that Zcash is cheap as hell right now and you can buy a lot, it is literally at its lowest point in history. Don't believe me, believe the math and believe the graph.
That is all.
Zcash is not a great crypto. It's corporate backed and centralized, a large portion of mining profits go to fund an American Corporation. The only people that support it are traders. You do realize it's not private by default right? Literally nobody uses the privacy feature and it's slow as fuck.
The price also doesn't matter when your buying drugs dummy. If you want to invest go pump on a crypto sub.
Zcash has not been on the market for a long time, it's new and the crypto is far too new to rely on.
If a hard for happens for btc you will be able to transfer your coins instantly.
