The Electric Coin Company (ECC) has unveiled its roadmap for Q4 2025, placing emphasis on advancing privacy features and enhancing wallet functionality for

(ZEC). Released on November 2, the roadmap details strategic goals designed to make Zcash more accessible, secure, and compatible with other platforms. One of the main projects is the rollout of ephemeral addresses, enabling users to create temporary, one-time addresses to safeguard transaction privacy during cross-chain operations. This addition, integrated with the Multichain SDK, aims to make private transactions easier for both regular users and developers.

The roadmap from ECC also outlines upgrades for Zashi, its official wallet, including improvements in transaction speed, user interface, and support for hardware wallets such as Keystone. These enhancements are meant to deliver a better user experience while upholding Zcash’s security standards. Additionally, ECC is working to simplify the onboarding process for newcomers and broaden educational and developer support to foster the expanding Zcash community.

Another focus in the roadmap is the ongoing oversight of the Zcash Development Fund, with a pledge to refine how funds are distributed and to raise the bar for reporting practices. ECC stressed that these initiatives are vital for sustaining trust and driving innovation across the Zcash ecosystem.

With Zcash’s market influence on the rise, its dedication to privacy technology and user convenience stands out, especially as regulatory demands for compliance and transparency grow. ECC’s Q4 roadmap demonstrates a thoughtful approach to balancing technical progress with user needs, furthering its goal to establish Zcash as a premier privacy-centric cryptocurrency.
