Zcash community divided over $550,000 adult industry outreach grant

Zcash has faced criticism from some cryptocurrency traders over a community grant supporting outreach at adult industry events, even as the organizers defend the program as a way to bring private payments to people who struggle with traditional banking services. Zcash traders criticized the ZECsy team's appearance at an adult entertainment convention, with one trader claiming to have increased his short position in ZEC. Zcash Community Grants approved the revised $550,000 outreach proposal in August, with funding authorized through the first nine monthly milestones.
