Investment risk
Baseline risk: All crypto-assets are risky, regardless of the type of token you hold. Here are some 'baseline' risks to be aware of before deciding to invest.
Investment risk: The performance of most crypto-assets can be highly volatile, with their value dropping as quickly as it can rise. You should be prepared to lose all the money you invest in crypto-assets.
Lack of protections: Crypto-assets are largely unregulated and neither the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) nor the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) will protect you in the event something goes wrong with your crypto-asset investments.
Crypto-assets are complex: It may be difficult to understand the risks associated with a crypto-asset investment. Do your own research and if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Don't put all your eggs in one basket: Putting all your money into a single type of investment is risky. Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on any one to do well. A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments such as crypto-assets.

FAQ
Zcash (ZEC) is a decentralized cryptocurrency that places a strong emphasis on privacy and anonymity. Unlike many other cryptocurrencies, Zcash transactions do not by default reveal the sending and receiving addresses or the amount being transferred. This is achieved through the use of zk-SNARK zero-knowledge proof technology, which allows nodes on the network to verify transactions without revealing any sensitive information about those transactions.
Zcash operates on a public blockchain, but it distinguishes itself from other cryptocurrencies through its optional anonymity feature. Zcash transactions can be sent in two ways: transparent and shielded. Transparent transactions are similar to Bitcoin transactions, with all essential information about the transaction available online for anyone to see. Shielded transactions, on the other hand, leverage zk-SNARKs technology to enable completely anonymous transactions over a public blockchain. The fact that the transaction has occurred is recorded on the ledger, but the sending and receiving addresses and the amount sent are not revealed to the public.
