Zcash turns 10 as Grayscale credits developer funding for innovation

Grayscale has credited Zcash's allocation of 20% of block rewards to development funding for supporting a decade of privacy and security upgrades as the cryptocurrency approaches its tenth anniversary on October 28. Grayscale credits Zcash's 20% developer allocation with supporting continued protocol upgrades. Miners receive 80% of block rewards, while development programs receive the remaining 20%. Ironwood introduced formally verified supply protections and quantum-recoverable notes in July 2026. Zcash's current funding arrangement divides block rewards between two grant programs.
