14 Zcash is an implementation of the "Zerocash" protocol. Based on Bitcoin's code, it intends to
15 offer a far higher standard of privacy and anonymity through a sophisticiated zero-knowledge
16 proving scheme which preserves confidentiality of transaction metadata. Technical details are
17 available in our [Protocol Specification](https://github.com/zcash/zips/raw/master/protocol/protocol.pdf).
