Zcon

Zcon is our flagship annual conference. It brings together developers, researchers, privacy advocates, and community members to discuss topics including Zcash ecosystem updates, Privacy-preserving technologies, community-driven initiatives, governance, the regulatory landscape and ecosystem partnerships. Whether you’re new to Zcash or an experienced developer, Zcon provides a space for learning, collaboration, and meaningful discussions on the future of privacy-focused financial systems. Hybrid (in-person & virtual) or fully virtual—accessibility is a priority.

Zcash Dev Summits

Zcash Dev Summits are focused, in-depth gatherings designed for developers working on Zcash and related privacy-preserving technologies. These events provide an opportunity to collaborate with fellow developers, engage in technical discussions and contribute to the innovation and evolution of Zcash.

Zcon Voices

Zcon Voices provides a localized platform to explore regional-specific challenges, opportunities, and use cases for Zcash and financial privacy in their local language. These sessions aim to encourage regional participation and adoption, and showcase real-world use cases for Zcash. This event is ideal for local community leaders, educators, and advocates who want to drive privacy awareness and adoption in their regions.

Arborist Calls

Arborist calls are bi-weekly technical discussion focused on protocol development. These virtual meetings cover protocol deployment logistics, consensus node implementation issues, protocol research, and future upgrades. If you’re actively involved in Zcash development or want to stay updated on protocol evolution, Arborist Calls provide valuable insights and coordination opportunities.

Zcomm

Zcomm is an online gathering where community members share their skills and experiences to inspire and equip others. Zcomm is all about helping you turn ideas into action. Rather than focusing on specific Zcash-related content, Zcomm is centered on the “how”—how to educate, how to organize, how to engage. Think of it as a practical toolkit for community builders.
