Zcash ZEC - Privacy 2023/2024Zcash is decentralized, credibly neutral, and, like Bitcoin, has a fixed supply of 21 million Zcash currency units (ZEC).
Every 75 seconds, a new block is mined to the Zcash blockchain and a block reward of 3.125 $ZEC comes into circulation. The amount of the block reward cuts in half about every four years until all 21 million ZEC are in circulation.
Zcash inflation almost precisely mimics that of Bitcoin. It’s important to note that as new coins are created, inflation goes down, and at each halving, the rate drops significantly.
