Why you should? ZCash is a commercial project and they have all the resources to hire full-time devs to work on windows builds. It’s simply stupid to work for donations in this space. Remember, no one donates. Never. ---

My experience the last few months contradicts “never”…and ZcashCo didn’t do a premine, the slice they take of the FR is enough to keep them going at their current burn rate, but not if they hire a bunch of GUI devs…they’re focusing on the linux reference implementation and network stability, and have their hands full with that.
