Analysis

OVERVIEW

Zodl carries forward the Zashi wallet under new branding from Electric Coin Company, the organization behind Zcash, combining a shielded ZEC wallet with CrossPay and Flexa merchant spend and no wallet-account KYC surface found.

LIMITS

Electric Coin Company's entire engineering team resigned in January 2026, and the record says post-resignation development continuity is uncertain; it also names a separate ECC board advisor investigated by the US Department of Justice for withholding FBI information about North Korea-linked developers on an unrelated codebase.

USEFUL FOR

Shielded Zcash spending and Flexa merchant payments for users tracking Zodl's post-transition development.
