Your wallet asks someone else's server about your Zcash. Every time it syncs $ZEC. Go Max ends that. One switch in Zecky Lock it for Mac, and your wallet runs its own Zcash node. Every block since Canopy checked on your own Mac. About 20 GB. No server in between. Go Max stands on Zakura and Zaino. In testing now. Want to be among the first to run it? Reply or DM. 👇
