    Yes, but since their chain has transparent and private transactions, then somebody knows you did a private transaction, which is still a problem. It becomes a, why didn’t you use a public transaction? What did you buy with that private transaction? Why did you need that private transaction? Why couldn’t it have been a public transaction?

    With Monero, since all transactions are private at all times, there’s no need to ask that.

      Huh i didnt know zcash had transparent transactions?

      And you don’t need a “view key” to see them like in Monero?

        I don’t know that much about Zcash but apparently not because they have a shielded and an unshielded pool. So it would appear that some transactions are public while others can be private. And that’s still not okay.
