Hi guys! Good morning/afternoon/evening!

I saw that many people in the Zcash community say that they have the advantage of using end-to-end encryption with ZK-SNARKS circuits, and Monero relies on obfuscation and does not use encryption as a way to protect privacy, Monero has a public blockchain although opaque, but Zcash's is encrypted, making a comparison Zcash (with Orchad / shielded transactions and Tachyon) vs Monero (with FCMP++ and Carrot).

While I'm on the subject, won't Tachyon give Zcash the edge over Monero when it comes to scalability?

I love Monero and I want to make sure it's always at its maximum potential, so I think it's essential to question yourself.

One more question: what is a response to this post? -> https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoTechnology/comments/1m77zat/zcash_vs_monero_technology/
