I just read this article;
https://www.coindesk.com/edward-snowden-zcash-is-most-interesting-bitcoin-alternative/
Everything I know about Snowden leads me to believe that he's a stand up guy when it comes to infosec. In that read, he clearly endorses Zcash over XMR. And while I don't own or deal with either of those currencies (I am interested though) I'm curious as to what other people think about them.
Right now I see ease of use issues, and I need to do some personal reading on wallet options for both. Cash out is a whole different ordeal, not really part of the conversation I think.
As far as privacy goes, what do you Think? Discuss...
A detailed comparison of Monero and Zcash
In my view, ZCash's fatal flaws are trusted setup, transactions not private by default (here you can see that over 90% of zcash transactions are unshielded/public), 20% ongoing founders tax, and extremely high inflation.
