Zcash (ZEC), the privacy-focused cryptocurrency, is facing its biggest challenge in years as the Electric Coin Company (ECC) — the founding and core development team — suddenly announced their exit from the project.
According to FXEmpire, the decision came without prior warning, causing ZEC’s price to drop over 30% within 24 hours.
The move reportedly stems from governance and funding conflicts between ECC and the Zcash Foundation — disagreements over whether to expand toward an EVM-compatible future or remain focused purely on privacy technology.
The departure leaves a major gap in Zcash’s technical leadership, raising doubts about its long-term sustainability.
Still, the Foundation says it will continue maintaining the network and seek new contributors, pushing toward a truly decentralized model.
