Major changes have occurred in the privacy coin Zcash ecosystem. On January 8th, ECC (Electric Coin Company) CEO Josh Swihart publicly stated that the non-profit organization Bootstrap, which handles Zcash governance functions, has shown a "significant deviation" from the project's core mission. In response, the ECC core team has collectively withdrawn from the current structure and is working to establish an independent company. This move reflects deep-seated disagreements within the Zcash ecosystem regarding governance philosophy. The governance conflicts of the past few weeks have escalated into organizational opposition, indicating that this longstanding privacy project may face internal restructuring.

This is just the old trick of internal conflicts in the crypto world. Splitting up is fine, but in the end, it's still the retail investors who pay the price.

Another old project is about to have internal conflict. This governance issue is really annoying. --- Zcash is about to split up, with Bootstrap and ECC going against each other... The conflict is still quite intense. --- Are privacy coins all so competitive? They care more about power struggles than technological development. --- ECC withdrawing to establish an independent company? Feels like they might have messed up. --- This internal conflict is escalating; in the end, no one will die, but no one will thrive either. --- Josh directly deviated from the core mission, so what was Bootstrap doing all along... --- Old legacy projects are still reorganizing, while new coins are almost taking off. --- Watching this Zcash drama, I really start to worry about it. --- Differences in governance philosophy? Basically, it's a conflict of interests. --- The collective withdrawal move is pretty harsh; Bootstrap might be done for.

Zcash is splitting again? Bootstrap really failed, I've long looked down on this group's decisions.

It's another governance split. Can ZEC recover? Zcash is serious this time, directly confronting the team level, it feels like it's going to fail. Are Bootstrap and ECC breaking up? The privacy coin circle is going to be lively again. The fate of old coins: after internal conflicts, they go to zero. Oh my, this is so chaotic. Are there still friends holding ZEC? If governance collapses, even the strongest technology is useless. Poor old project. Splitting? Zcash is heading for a downturn... Deep-seated disagreements, to put it nicely, are just mutual distrust. Another internal restructuring, the coin price is bound to fall. It doesn't matter who is right or wrong between ECC and Bootstrap; the real question is what to do with ZEC.

Zcash is fighting internally again? These people really know how to play; they are busy with organizational structures every day. How's the coin price doing?
