Cake Wallet to 'drop everything and prioritize the Monero only app'

Cake Wallet¹ has decided to drop everything and prioritize the Monero only app, according to a public statement² released in less than 24 hours after community backlash³ over the Zcash support announcement:

The recent announcement of adding Zcash to Cake Wallet has brought out very passionate voices against this move and some supporting it.

[the plan for Cake Technologies:] Drop everything and prioritize the Monero only app. BTW, we have ALWAYS wanted to do a Monero only app for the hardcore folks.

For zcash, we will build a new and separate app.

The Monero-only wallet should be ready by the end of the year. Meanwhile, the Monero community is considering forking⁴ Cake’s codebase.
