Gate News update, April 13, Zcash core development team Zcash Open Development Lab (ZODL) founder Josh Swihart released Zcash’s latest strategic roadmap, proposing “post-quantum security, scale expansion, and user experience” as the core development direction. ZODL said that Zcash is entering the “Zcash IV” phase, where it will build infrastructure to extend protocol and application security to a scale of billions of users, advancing the vision of privacy transactions without large-scale financial monitoring.
On the product and technology front, ZODL’s 3.3.x versions have been released on iOS and Android, adding hardware wallet connection management, SDK upgrades, and a number of experience optimizations, while also advancing key development such as Keystone wallet functionality and address system upgrades (ZIP 316, UIVK/UFVK). At the same time, the Zcash core team has fixed multiple system issues, progressed the development of the Zallet alpha version, and strengthened unified address standards and the wallet interaction experience.
In addition, ZODL disclosed that its application data continues to grow and that it is participating in a stablecoin privacy summit to strengthen industry collaboration. However, due to upgrades to regulatory and network restrictions, ZODL has temporarily been removed from Russian app stores.
