z_shieldcoinbase - Zcash 4.5.1-1 RPC

z_shieldcoinbase "fromaddress" "tozaddress" ( fee ) ( limit )

Shield transparent coinbase funds by sending to a shielded zaddr.  This is an asynchronous operation and utxos
selected for shielding will be locked.  If there is an error, they are unlocked.  The RPC call `listlockunspent`
can be used to return a list of locked utxos.  The number of coinbase utxos selected for shielding can be limited
by the caller. Any limit is constrained by the consensus rule defining a maximum
transaction size of 100000 bytes before Sapling, and 2000000 bytes once Sapling activates.

Arguments:
1. "fromaddress"         (string, required) The address is a taddr or "*" for all taddrs belonging to the wallet.
2. "toaddress"           (string, required) The address is a zaddr.
3. fee                   (numeric, optional, default=0.00001) The fee amount to attach to this transaction.
4. limit                 (numeric, optional, default=50) Limit on the maximum number of utxos to shield.  Set to 0 to use as many as will fit in the transaction.

Result:
{
  "remainingUTXOs": xxx       (numeric) Number of coinbase utxos still available for shielding.
  "remainingValue": xxx       (numeric) Value of coinbase utxos still available for shielding.
  "shieldingUTXOs": xxx        (numeric) Number of coinbase utxos being shielded.
  "shieldingValue": xxx        (numeric) Value of coinbase utxos being shielded.
  "opid": xxx          (string) An operationid to pass to z_getoperationstatus to get the result of the operation.
