trade @solana coins without ever leaving @Zcash. 🛡️
the traders are on solana. the privacy is on zcash.
until today, you had to pick one.
not anymore. connect your zcash wallet to Sapling and buy, sell, launch and get paid in native ZEC.
no phantom. no SOL. no manual setup.
this is the biggest update sapling has ever shipped. here's everything in it 👇
1. zcash-native accounts
connect @noir_wallet or @zodl_app via QR. that's it.
buy any coin on sapling with ZEC straight from your zcash wallet. sell or harvest with one face ID tap, and the ZEC lands back in your zcash wallet.
zcash in. zcash out. powered by @near_intents.
2. your account is yours
your first buy creates your sapling account, secured by a passkey (face ID / windows hello / touch ID).
- every sell, harvest and change needs your passkey, checked on chain
- sapling can only sign what our on-chain guard allows, instruction by instruction
- export your key any time
- cut sapling off any time
- lost your device? recover it from your zcash wallet
the guard is live on solana mainnet, verified byte for byte against the build we tested, and only a 2-of-3 multisig can ever upgrade it.
3. shielded launches
launch a coin with ZEC from your shielded balance.
- every shielded launch gets a brand-new sapling account, made only for that coin
- payouts go to an address that has never been used before
- the payment comes from zcash's shielded pool, with no transparent sender
nothing sapling publishes says who launched the coin. every shielded launch carries a badge that shows these checks passed.
4. your fees come home
creator fees and holder rewards land in your sapling account as ZEC, then go home to your zcash wallet.
- normal launches: sent automatically to your transparent address
- shielded launches: one tap, and they arrive as a shielded note
5. $SAPLING is the rootstock
0.50% of every trade on sapling buys $SAPLING and burns it, forever. the treasury buys and burns on top. trades from zcash accounts feed the burn exactly like every other trade.
so far:
- 55 coins planted
- 23,000+ trades
- 1,385+ ZEC traded (~$1.8M)
- 182.6M $SAPLING burned (18%+ of supply)
- 33M $SAPLING locked (3.3% of supply)
more activity on sapling = less $SAPLING.
6. where this goes
zcash doesn't need to become a memecoin chain. it needs a road from where the traders already are. that road is what we're building:
- today: buy, sell, launch and get paid without leaving your zcash wallet
- next: more of the path shielded, as volume proves it out
- then: when ZSAs land on zcash, sapling coins become native zcash assets. already built on the ZSA testnet, open source: github.com/saplingcash/zsa
the mission: the first fully zcash-native launchpad on solana, and the first to bring its coins onto zcash itself.
we're starting with careful limits on the new paths and raising them as they prove out. everything is verifiable on chain.
the path from solana's traders to zcash privacy is open.
Threadguy crashes out after having to cover math, cryptography and AI on stream
“I wake up every day and it's like, hey Threadguy, you are going to have to cover one of a couple topics. It could be anything in a long list of meme coins, how to trade perps, how to trade big alts,
Viewed on grand timescales, crypto is as restorative, reconstructive,& revanchist as it is ever-perfective: the energy of peer-to-peer networks, the primacy of the individual vs the nationstate, the devolution of power away from trusted third parties back toward social consensus.
I am not seeing this case receive anywhere near the same media coverage as the Cornell 7 despite the situations being extremely similar. This is why I have said we cannot pick and choose what cases make us outraged. All victims deserve justice and deserves the same amount of support.
