ZClassic FAQ
What is ZClassic (ZCL)?
ZClassic is a cryptocurrency created in 2016 as a fork of Zcash. Its defining change was removing Zcash's founders' reward, the portion of block rewards directed to the project's creators, so that the full reward goes to miners. It retains Zcash's shielded-transaction technology and is mined rather than staked.
How do ZClassic's privacy features work?
ZClassic inherits Zcash's zero-knowledge proof design, which allows shielded transactions where amounts and participants are hidden while the network can still verify that no coins were created improperly. Like Zcash, it supports both transparent and shielded addresses, so privacy is optional per transaction rather than enforced across the whole chain.
How is ZCL produced?
New ZCL enters circulation through mining: participants contribute computational work to produce blocks and receive the block reward. Because the founders' reward was removed at the fork, miners receive the entire subsidy. This makes ZClassic a proof-of-work coin in the Bitcoin and Zcash lineage rather than a token issued on another network.
What is ZClassic's relationship to Bitcoin Private?
In 2018 ZClassic was used in a co-fork with Bitcoin that produced Bitcoin Private, a separate coin combining Bitcoin's ledger with ZClassic's privacy technology. ZClassic continued as its own chain afterwards. The episode is the main reason ZCL appears in discussions of fork-based coin distributions.
