Electric Coin Co., the company behind Zcash, released its fourth quarter 2025 roadmap as ZEC trades near $420, up from $50 in mid-September.
The roadmap prioritizes four areas:
- implementing ephemeral addresses for ZEC swaps via the NEAR Intents protocol,
- generating fresh transparent addresses after receiving funds,
- enabling Keystone hardware wallet resyncing,
- and supporting Pay-to-Script-Hash multisig wallets in Keystone.
ECC will deploy a multisig wallet to manage Zcash developer funds. The firm stated its focus targets reducing technical debt, enhancing privacy and usability for Zashi users, and streamlining fund management.

These updates follow Zashi’s August 28 decentralized off-ramp for shielded ZEC and October 1 on-ramp release. ECC temporarily suspended the Coinbase on-ramp over privacy concerns regarding a session-token requirement.
ZEC’s market capitalization recently exceeded privacy competitor Monero. Shielded token supply in the Orchard privacy protocol surpassed 4.1 million tokens, with most growth since mid-September occurring in Orchard, ZecHub data shows. The protocol maintains compatibility with earlier Sprout and Sapling versions.
