Project Description
Fix the Zcash BTCPayServer plugin in preparation for 2.1, publishing a working version of the new extracted plugin. A BTCPayServer plugin will be published both to the BTCPayServer plugin store, together with a .btcpay bundle on GitHub. An updated version of zcash-walletd will be published with tested and working Sapling support.
Orchard support can be added with a separate grant focusing on zcash-walletd. This can be worked on in parallel. Documentation will also be published, helping merchants to add ZEC to their BTCPayServer store.
The goals are to increase the amount of merchants accepting Zcash, allowing for Zcash holders to spend their ZEC more easily without having to convert to other cryptocurrencies first. Merchants will also be able to market their privacy friendly practices and better comply with privacy regulations such as GDPR, reducing the amount of data collection that they will be responsible for.
