Hey Zcash community!
Our team at Daltonic LLC has submitted a new grant proposal to build Cycles AI: A Shielded DeFi Gateway for Zcash.
Our mission is to solve a major challenge for Zcash users: accessing the DeFi ecosystem without compromising privacy. Currently, moving ZEC from a shielded address to platforms like Uniswap is a complex and de-anonymizing process that often requires centralized exchanges.
Our proposed solution is a user-friendly gateway that will allow anyone to send ZEC from their shielded address (z-addr) and seamlessly receive Wrapped ZEC (wZEC) in their EVM wallet. To demonstrate the gateway’s power and immediately drive utility, we will integrate it with an AI-powered trading bot designed to increase liquidity and activity for wZEC.
We believe this infrastructure will be a critical step in strengthening Zcash’s interoperability and making ZEC a more liquid and useful asset across the entire Web3 space.
