ZenCash is built on zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs), a new cryptographic breakthrough in privacy and the core math behind the blockchain. It was originally developed as Zerocash and eventually Zcash. ZenCash then forked this original codebase into a new project and has since added many additional security and privacy features beyond Zcash.
\\xa0As stated on Rob\'s LinkedIn: "ZenCash is building a globally distributed secure node network resilient to censorship by implementing network-level encryption on top of zk-SNARK blockchain obfuscation, embedding secure messaging, document publishing on IPFS, and a system of decentralized governance."
