🛡️🛡️🛡️Shielded Zcash transactions are now available in Ledger Wallet desktop 🛡️🛡️🛡️
I personally committed to this one. It took far longer than I expected, but it is now delivered, and that is what matters.
Privacy here is not a server setting. To keep your shielded balance private, the scanning and the transaction building happen on your machine: your unified viewing key is stored locally and is never shared with anyone, including us. That is exactly what made the integration trickier.
When it comes to signing the TX, the ZKP is computed on your machine (it's much faster with Ironwood now 🚀), and then the transaction is signed on your device, on a screen you can trust.
Make sure your Ledger Wallet Desktop and Zcash app are up-to-date, and you're good to interact with Ironwood!
Privacy is normal ✊
Stay safe.
