About Zcash
What is Zcash (ZEC)?
Zcash is a UTXO cryptocurrency that adds optional shielded transactions using zero-knowledge proofs, alongside ordinary transparent addresses. Ownbit manages transparent Zcash (t-addresses), which follow Bitcoin-style standards and therefore support on-chain MultiSig and air-gapped cold-wallet signing. Keys stay on your device and remain recoverable from your BIP39 phrase.

What you can do with it
Zcash in Ownbit
Self-custody by design
Your ZEC mnemonic and keys are generated and encrypted on your own device — never uploaded for remote custody.
Cold-wallet workflow
Track ZEC on a Watch Wallet and sign offline on an air-gapped phone; transactions move as QR codes.
On-chain MultiSig
an on-chain P2SH/P2WSH multisig script requires 2-of-3 or weighted approvals before any ZEC moves.
How it works
How Zcash works in Ownbit
On Zcash, an Ownbit MultiSig address is a real on-chain P2SH/P2WSH script that needs M-of-N signatures to spend. Every participant holds an independent key, so no single person — and not Ownbit — can move funds alone. Add a Watch Wallet for tracking and keep signing keys on an air-gapped phone.
Recovery and compatibility
Zcash recovery & compatibility
For standard Zcash wallets, recovery completes with your mnemonic or private key in any compatible wallet. For MultiSig, each participant keeps an independent key and can recover from the wallet's on-chain configuration without depending on Ownbit's servers.
FAQ
Zcash wallet — frequently asked questions
Does Ownbit support Zcash MultiSig?
Yes. Ownbit supports on-chain M-of-N MultiSig for Zcash — an on-chain P2SH/P2WSH multisig script. You can set anything from a 2-of-2 personal wallet to weighted enterprise approvals, and the threshold is enforced on-chain rather than by a server.
Which Zcash assets can I hold?
Ownbit manages transparent ZEC (t-addresses) on Zcash.
Is my Zcash self-custodial in Ownbit?
Yes. Your ZEC mnemonic and private keys are generated and stored encrypted on your own device. Ownbit never holds them and cannot move, freeze, or access your funds.
Can I use Zcash as a cold wallet?
Yes. Pair a Watch Wallet on an online phone with an offline signing phone; unsigned and signed transactions move between them as QR codes, so your keys never touch the internet.
How do I recover my Zcash if I lose my phone?
Restore your BIP39 mnemonic in Ownbit or a compatible wallet. For MultiSig, each participant recovers with their own key plus the wallet's public configuration — no Ownbit server required.
