Unlike all other networks and projects listed, zcash is not even relevant to decentralized techology as it depends enitrely on trust in a central party due to its flawed algorithm choice — requirement for central selection of participants in a trusted setup. All other developers of the other projects are aware of the algorithm and avoid it for technical and ethical reasons as they value decentralization and trust minimization that simply doesn’t exist in zcash. Comparing zcash to decentralized cryptocurrencies is misleading and suggests there are no downsides while the downside dwarfs any benefits gained by better privacy and renders entire network irrelevant.
