Pretty Good Policy

PGP* for Zcash

A community-oriented effort helping policymakers, regulators, industry stakeholders, and ecosystem partners understand Zcash and advance policy that protects financial privacy.

Financial Privacy

Privacy keeps digital finance safe, practical, and trustworthy.

Financial privacy helps people and businesses protect themselves from theft, harassment, discrimination, and unwanted surveillance.

As financial services become more digital and global, banks, payment companies, platforms, and third parties collect and analyze far more transaction data. A single exposed data trail can reveal spending patterns, income, location, and relationships at scale.

A donor may want to support a political cause without public exposure.
A patient may need sensitive medical supplies without wide visibility.
A business may need to keep vendor payments and payroll confidential.

About PGPZ

Pretty Good Policy for Zcash.

PGP* for Zcash, or PGPZ, is focused on supporting the broader adoption of Zcash.

PGPZ educates stakeholders, makes Zcash more understandable and accessible in everyday settings, and promotes policy that supports Zcash ecosystem development and growth.

Why It Matters

Zcash has an important role to play in the digital asset ecosystem because it offers a practical path toward privacy, accessibility, and global use.

PGPZ creates a place for thoughtful participation, collaboration, and steady community leadership.

Top Priorities

One coordinated policy vehicle for Zcash.

PGPZ connects education, global advocacy, civil liberties, and policy response so the ecosystem can move with shared context.

01

Primary policy contact

Establish PGPZ as the clear home for policymakers, regulators, and industry stakeholders seeking to learn about Zcash.

02

Global advocacy

Move beyond scattershot outreach by coordinating through one vehicle and speaking with one voice.

03

Civil liberties

Advance the case for privacy-preserving infrastructure as blockchain adoption expands into mainstream systems.

04

Policy response

Promote Zcash ecosystem growth while responding to policy that could inhibit privacy-preserving networks.

05

Protect developers

Defend the principle that writing, publishing, or maintaining non-custodial privacy software does not make developers money transmitters or responsible for third-party misuse, and push for clear safe harbors, due process, and limits on enforcement.

About Zcash

A cryptocurrency built for privacy.

Zcash is a cryptocurrency and blockchain built to let people send value with strong privacy protections. Like Bitcoin, it has a fixed supply and a decentralized network, but it uses zero-knowledge cryptography so shielded transactions can be verified without publicly revealing the sender, recipient, or amount.

Fixed supply and decentralized network.
Zero-knowledge cryptography for shielded transfers.
Selective disclosure with public-chain auditability.
