Zcash Names opened early access on October 15, allowing reservation holders to register payment names for sending shielded Zcash (ZEC) payments with readable names instead of wallet addresses. One-character names carry a $10,000 annual fee, while names six characters or longer start at $20 per year. Permanent registration costs three times the annual rate. The service aims to enhance privacy by enabling shielded transfers that hide sender, receiver, and amount details from public blockchain observers. Public registration is planned for October 30 but may be delayed to accommodate reserved users.
Zcash Names' new pricing for one-character names provides context for digital asset markets.
