Electric Coin Company (ECC), the developer of Zcash (ZEC), has released its new roadmap for the fourth quarter of 2025. The company focuses on improving privacy, security, and user experience within the Zcash ecosystem.
One of the most notable innovations on the roadmap is the “temporary transparent address” system. Now, when users exchange ZEC through NEAR Intents, a new temporary transparent address will be generated for each transaction. This mechanism aims to increase privacy and reduce the interconnectivity between different transactions.
Additionally, transparent address rotation is being introduced. This feature will automatically create a new address after each fund transfer, further anonymizing users’ transaction history.
ECC has also introduced a new system to streamline device connection management for Zashi-Keystone users. Users can disconnect and resync their Keystone hardware wallets at any time.
Additionally, P2SH multi-signature support will be implemented on Keystone devices. This feature will ensure the secure management of Zcash Development Fund resources, contributing to the sustainable growth of the ecosystem. While Keystone will initially be used with Lockbox access, all wallets with PCZT integration will be able to use Keystone for signing transactions.
According to Coingecko data, the market capitalization of Zcash (ZEC) has surpassed $7 billion, reaching $7,010,784,529, marking a new all-time high for the project. The ZEC price has increased by 5.9% in the last 24 hours.
The surge in investor interest is driven by the upcoming Zcash halving, which will reduce mining rewards and significantly reduce the circulating supply of new ZEC.
