Zooko Wilcox, CEO of Electric Coin Company (the firm behind the privacy-focused cryptocurrency Zcash) said about Zcash: โWeโve been working on zcash for about five years and I expect it will take five more before it reaches the level of flourishing that has been on our minds all along.โ CoinDesk reports that these comments came during a conversation on the last day of the RadicalxChange conference in Detroit. Wilcox envisions another โthree or four year long moonshot projectโ in order to develop zcash โin ways that are not specific to privacy,โ and comments were made about the intent to make Zcash "programmable like Ethereum."
