solana:BZFYNPeQAEW3HWQ4DNsTVahC1n4ZjTgn6jB2nnBbB96W = a bet that Zcash privacy can become useful to everyday traders without giving up the markets where everyone already trades @saplingdotcash is trying to become a full place where people can do everything trade coins, trade NFTs, use a wallet while staying inside Zcash privacy Problem: - Zcash offers shielded transactions, but its everyday trading ecosystem remains relatively limited - Solana has deep memecoin culture and active trading, but transactions are not natively private in the same way - users who want to trade while keeping their ZEC flow private face additional wallet and bridging friction - launching tokens anonymously while participating in active markets isn't straightforward - Zcash needs more reasons for people to actually use it, not just hold it Solution: Sapling is building a Zcash native launchpad and trading terminal that connects Zcash users to token markets while keeping ZEC at the center of the experience users can connect a supported Zcash wallet or a conventional Solana wallet, launch tokens and trade across supported markets for the Zcash flow, the goal is simple: ZEC in → trade → ZEC out users don't need SOL for that ZEC based trading flow, and proceeds can be sent directly to a shielded Zcash address the platform also lets creators direct a portion of trading fees to themselves, holders, other Zcash addresses or the Zcash Foundation that creates a connection between memecoin activity and the Zcash ecosystem what they've shipped: - a live token launchpad - a trading terminal built around Zcash wallet access token launches and trading on Solana - expansion to Robinhood Chain - stock related trading pairs - creator configurable fee distributions - fee flows paid in real ZEC, according to the project the important part is that Sapling isn't just pitching privacy as a future feature it's connecting that narrative to an existing behavior: people launching tokens and trading memecoins and the product has already attracted meaningful reported activity traction: roughly one month after launch, the supplied figures show: - 351 coins launched - $33M+ in cumulative trading volume - approximately 86 ZEC (~$111K) paid to holders - approximately $214K in cumulative protocol revenue - live markets across Solana and Robinhood Chain, plus stock pairs if these figures are accurate and the revenue calculation reflects realized protocol income, that's a meaningful early signal the token and fee economy: trading generates fees in ZEC, and creators can route a portion of those fees to holders or selected recipients that gives token communities a way to connect their activity to Zcash denominated payments the bull case: - this is where the thesis gets interesting - Zcash already has a recognizable privacy narrative - the challenge has been turning that narrative into everyday usage - Sapling is approaching the problem from the demand side - instead of asking people to use Zcash purely because privacy matters, it gives them a practical reason to interact with the ecosystem: launch tokens, trade markets and receive fees the potential flywheel looks like this: more launches → more traders → more trading fees in ZEC → more creator and holder distributions → more reasons to use Sapling if the product keeps growing, it could help bring a different kind of activity into the Zcash ecosystem the ZSAs catalyst: - Zcash Shielded Assets (ZSAs) are the long term piece worth watching - the vision is for assets beyond ZEC itself to exist within Zcash's shielded ecosystem - if the required ZSA infrastructure reaches mainnet and @saplingdotcash integrates it successfully, the project could evolve beyond connecting Zcash users to external markets - it could potentially support native private assets within the Zcash ecosystem itself today: Zcash privacy connected to external trading markets future vision: private assets and trading becoming part of the Zcash ecosystem itself the team: the main public builder is Igor @igor_zs1 he has been building in crypto for years the main catalyst: - ZSAs becoming usable on Zcash mainnet, alongside continued growth in Sapling's trading activity - ZSAs are the bigger long term catalyst because they could bring the product closer to its vision of native private assets - in the nearer term, sustained volume and ZEC fee distributions are the evidence that the current product already has demand my thesis: - @saplingdotcash is interesting because it gives Zcash privacy a practical distribution channel - instead of waiting for everyone to become interested in private payments, it connects ZEC to the markets where crypto users already launch tokens, trade narratives and build communities - the reported early volume and ZEC denominated distributions suggest that this approach has attracted real initial activity - if Sapling keeps growing and successfully integrates shielded assets when the infrastructure becomes available, it could become an important gateway between Zcash privacy and the wider onchain economy - the bet is that privacy becomes much more powerful when people have a reason to use it every day check defi llama : defillama.com/protocol/sapli… - #3 privacy protocol by fees - top 10 launchpad by revenue - #5 launchpad by holders revenue - #41 of 235 protocols across every chain by holders revenue NFT trading + inscriptions coming wallet + browser extension coming

it’s already ranking highly on defi llama I forgot the # but it was top 50 in all of crypto recently and at only 1mil marketcap Excited for my first ZK snarks which I think is the most interesting thing onchain
