The wallet launch is planned for 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Among the advantages of moving to Proof-of-Stake, developers cited reduced price pressure on Zcash tokens, since most miners would otherwise immediately sell ZEC.<\/p>\n<p>The unit&#8217;s capabilities will expand <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/what-is-yield-farming\">revenue generation<\/a> through staking and access to on-chain governance mechanisms for ZEC holders.
