Cake Wallet Adds Zcash With Shielded Transactions by Default
Cake Wallet, a popular privacy-focused crypto wallet, today announced the addition of Zcash (ZEC), with shielded transactions by default.
Zcash is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that gives you the option to make transactions private using something called “shielded addresses, which conceals sender, receiver, and transaction amounts. While many cryptocurrencies expose details publicly by default, Zcash offers users the ability to transact privately.
Cake Wallet enabled shielding by default, so while users can send funds to transparent addresses, all transactions will originate from a shielded source. This ensures that users’ balance and transaction history remains private, while being compatible with the broader Zcash ecosystem.
“Privacy should not be an advanced setting,” said Vikrant Sharma, Founder and CEO of Cake Labs, creators of Cake Wallet. “By enforcing shielded transactions by default, we’re making strong privacy protections the standard experience, not an optional extra.”
The addition of Zcash comes amid repeated community requests and renewed interest in privacy-focused cryptocurrencies. In 2025, Zcash recorded one of the strongest performances among large-cap privacy assets.
