Zashi Is Becoming Zodl

The upcoming app update will rebrand Zashi to Zodl, without impacting the user experience.

It’s a new brand for a new chapter, but everything else stays the same: the wallet, the team behind it, and our commitment to Zcash. We’re moving forward with clarity and purpose, and this change reflects the building momentum.

What This Means for Zashi Users

There is no action required of you. No need to download a new app, change your seed phrase, or transfer your funds.

  • Keep using Zashi as usual

  • Zashi app will update to Zodl with the next app update

  • No user action required

Over the coming days, you’ll start seeing the Zashi name transition to Zodl across all platforms. That includes the Discord Zashi support channel.

In the meantime, stay tuned for the app update and check out our new home at zodl.com.

The Team Behind Zodl

In January of this year, the entire Electric Coin Company (ECC) team, the original creators of Zcash and Zashi, left ECC and formed a new company. We named the company Zcash Open Development Lab (ZODL), and the Zcash flagship wallet—Zodl.

This change was necessary for driving Zcash’s growth and adoption of ZEC without reliance on the Zcash development fund. We are now free of this constraint, and since forming the company, we have not missed a beat. The engineers and product team who spent years advancing Zcash are still here, shipping.

Our Mission

We envision a world without mass financial surveillance. A world where law-abiding people can transact freely and privately, without fear that their data will be exploited or weaponized.

There is no sovereignty without privacy.

Our banner has changed, but our mission has not. We’re here to put shielded ZEC into the hands of billions of users.

Get ready to Zodl.

Onward.

have i missed any updates about how or if the new team will report any financials?

i know under ECC they used to describe funds, spending, etc etc…. i’ve been wondering what ever happed to that 4 million dollar debt obligation to Least Authority for instance.

I also have seen that Zashi, now ZODL, was creating a ton of revenue so to speak as the first money making product in Zcash history! cheers to that btw

Anyway asking for any general stuff about this cause i havent been able to read every forum post like it used to be possible. ever since the big blow up last year this forum is fast and diverse

to the mods if this comment is already answered or fits better in a different thread please move it around

Details about the new structure are sparce, and under this new for-profit structure they may not have the same level of transparency about thier finances.
