Yeah, I saw that. The founder's reward is being paid out for the first 4 years. That period is almost up now...
ZEC was released at the end of 2016. So its only been a little over a year and a half where the founders reward was being paid.
Hence there is still lots of ZEC coins which will keep going to the founders for the next 2 and a half years.
But yes... its unfortunate since this was probably the #2 most mined coin aside from Ethereum. When they build more ASICs the difficulty will keep going higher and higher and will increase the difficult of other coins like ETH and XMR.
