Zcash Community Survey: What's Next for Zashi
ECC's Zashi wallet has come a long way in the past year. Thanks to your feedback, it has evolved into the most capable interface for Zcash. We’re not just building another wallet, we’re building a world-class app for unstoppable private payments.

To make Zashi a true hub for real-world crypto use, we must continue to build. That means prioritizing the right integrations and features. And that’s where you come in. Your answers to this survey will help shape our roadmap.
