Zcash backers register to lobby Washington on the CLARITY Act

2026-10-05

Pretty Good Policy for Zcash (PGPZ), an advocacy group focused on Zcash, has registered to lobby in Washington. Zcash is a privacy-oriented cryptocurrency. The filing is the ecosystem's latest attempt to influence US policy on digital assets.

The registration names the issues the group plans to lobby on. They include the CLARITY Act and two proposals on how digital assets are taxed. The report was published on Oct. 5, 2026.

The source text gives an effective date for the registration but cuts off before the day. It does not name the tax proposals. It also does not say who will lobby for the group, how much it is spending or which lawmakers it plans to approach.

A price ticker on the source page listed ZEC at $1,349.57. The report does not link that price to the filing.

For anyone already holding a ZEC perpetual position on Bitget, Bybit, MEXC or OKX, the filing changes nothing directly. A lobbying registration does not change funding rates, trading fees or order book liquidity on any of these exchanges. Any effect would depend on what happens to the CLARITY Act and the tax proposals, and that is not yet known.
