It would help at least some of us in the community who want to see Zcash become a blockchain of money if ECC provided the expectation that
a) deprecating ZcashD is our number 1 priority after Zashi is released.
b) Then ECC and ZCG along with the foundation are 100% focused on we have the resources to bring ZSAs, stablecoins, and programmability to the Zcash blockchain after ZcashD is deprecated.
yes. I have seen Josh’s roadmap; but 1Q25 is a year away to deprecate ZcashD, which means ZSAs are likely late 2025 and who knows when for stablecoins. Seems to me we need to move a lot faster on deprecation. Can ECC get aligned with the Foundation and Qedit to go all hands on deck to deprecate ZcashD? It seems like if all 3 orgs and Qedit aligned on this, the team/group as a whole could help get it done quicker. The current roadmap still looks like the ZEC is fiat (spending) theme is dominating the development pipeline. The focus is on payments and wallets, which means ZCG will want to spend on 3rd party wallets/marketing/media. So many of us want to see ZEC as SOV (saving) with ZSAs/stablecoins (spending) and smart money (programmability for ecosystem platform).
