Zcash Community Grants Meeting Minutes 1/24/2022

Coindesk, yes! Here’s a depressing stat…

In 2021, according to the coindesk search “Zcash” (sort by date), once you take out any “Monero, Dash, Zcash was delisted” titles, Zcash was only mentioned in a title 2 times.

  • Zcash Announces ‘Halo Arc’ and Timeline for Protocol Privacy Update
  • Tor Project Receives $670K From Zcash Open Major Grants for Coding Language Upgrade

The good news is ZOMG is one of those articles! Zcash Community Grants is in a good position to make headlines and should do everything they can to encourage it.

I’ve made up the figures but I can easily imagine articles like:

  • Zcash Community Grants Commits $30M to Fund Open Source Projects (over X years)
  • Zcash Community Grants Approves $1M Grant to Explore Vertical Scaling
  • Zcash Trials On-Chain Voting to Recover Lost Wallets (not retroactively)
  • Major Site Adopts Login with Zcash

(Also unrelated… Was a coindesk article never published with a headline something like “Zcash to Transition to POS by 2025”? If not seems like a failure…)
