Keybase chooses Zcash

I have read almost all comments, and it seems like nobody has pointed out that the supposedly anonymous transactions (using z addresses) are still not working. All mining pools are warning about it. For example:

http://zcash.flypool.org

If anonymity is so important for people, there are already excellent solutions, Monero being one of the best, if not the best, with a strong and serious dev team.

Disclaimer: I am not a Monero dev and I own a huge total of 0.6 XMR. This is only my opinion as a software dev.

Fixed in Zcash 1.0.3. (They were always "working", despite the bugs that were recently fixed. You can see plenty of successful z-address transactions on the blockchain.)

You had a single thing with ZCash that you had to get right, and you couldn't get it working in your initial release? What an utter embarrassment.
