PGP founder announces transition to establish PGPZ, focusing on Zcash policy advocacy in Washington

Foresight News reports that Paul Brigner, founder of the policy advocacy project PGP, stated on Twitter that PGP (Pretty Good Policy) is transforming into PGPZ (Pretty Good Policy for Zcash). PGPZ will focus on privacy-preserving digital cash, compliance practices, and policy initiatives related to the public interest role of Zcash. The aim of PGPZ is to ensure that Zcash receives serious, organized, and credible representation in U.S. policy making. Policymakers are deciding whether privacy-preserving digital cash can legally exist and serve the public interest, and PGPZ will work to ensure that Zcash is properly understood, represented, and protected in these discussions.

PGPZ will focus on three areas: policy meetings, resources and support for the community and members, and the PGPZ Alliance—a task force composed of policy professionals and active advocates.
