Highligths
We’ve kicked off the year by introducing the newest members of the Zcash Brazil team! Four talented people have officially joined us and are already taking the lead on several important fronts, including event partnerships, hubs, study groups, and (surprise!) Zcon Voices 2.
We’re working hard to secure a venue in São Paulo for our second event, and we’ve already received early approval from the Zcash Foundation (ZF) to use the name Zcon Voices.
They are:
@AAmandita: Already an integral part of the team, she is responsible for interviews, Zebra Talk, Zona Z, in-person events, and serves as one of the community’s strongest voices thanks to her excellent public speaking and writing skills. She also helps with updates, announcements, and various other responsibilities.
@Zarkwing: A highly active member of the Zcash Brazil community, he currently moderates our channels and will now reinforce user support (Dizzy, faucet, and more).
@PacBR: Extremely active in the ecosystem, he’s been producing in-depth step-by-step technical tutorials and took part in the ZecHub hackathon, where he developed the ZECA product. He also helps organize and support our in-person events.
@Schönell: Former Community Manager at CoinEx Brazil, where he successfully managed events, meetups, schedules, and vendors. We’ve already collaborated on several occasions, and he’ll now be helping us organize events and meetups throughout 2026.
We’re honoring our commitments while also innovating our internal processes and content strategy for 2026. Our main goal has been to establish solid workflows, refresh our visual identity, improve content delivery, and eliminate low-impact activities. We’re now laser-focused on initiatives that deliver real results for the local community.
We’ve held several strategic meetings and secured important media partnerships running through December/26 with Rafaelando, as well as a broad new collaboration with Let’s Co Create, which begins in February and will cover multiple fronts, with more partnerships to come soon.
