A community of innovators coming together to work on Zcash

The Zcash Developer Alliance was formed for one purpose: to grow the Zcash ecosystem in support of economic freedom for everyone. Its first deliverable will be Zcash interoperability across select cryptocurrency projects.

Participating ZDA organizations in 2020 include Agoric, Bolt Labs, ConsenSys, iqlusion, Kyber Network, Thesis and Electric Coin Co.

ZDA members are invited to in-person developer summits twice a year, in addition to quarterly conference calls. The initial focus of this group is to develop cross-chain interoperation with top-tier mainnets, and the strategy and agenda of this alliance will be set by its members.
